“Oh yes, I love to do shoes. I'm not a
fetishist but I love to do shoes.” – Karl Lagerfeld
It would be an
understatement to say that I love my shoe collection. I truly cherish it. Shoes
(along with handbags) are the ultimate purchase because, if well taken care of,
they can be treasured forever. Sure, trends come and go, but they almost always
make a comeback (1970’s revival of the platform pump ringing any bells?).
When our mothers’ got married, they
typically bought a pair of satin, white pumps, most likely at the
boutique in which they got their gown. But these days we’re faced with a bevy
of choices for our walk down the aisle.
Whether
it’s a crystal clad statement shoe, a traditional ivory pump, or something
practical that can be worn to any formal event thereafter, the options seem
endless.
Shoes can change an entire look, or in Cinderella's case, an entire life :)
