Why shoes

OK, I don't really know the answer to this - I just know a lot of people don't get, "the shoe thing". So why shoes? Do shoes make a woman feel better about herself - well, yes, actually. Speaking (under correction) on behalf of my tribe, it is very possible for a sexy pair of shoes to transform and entire look and add that extra I-don't-know-what-but-it-works that just amps up everything else. It is also quite possible that the lack of a 'bad shoe day' contributes greatly to the appeal of shoes. There is never a shoe that makes us look fat, or that doesn't fit quite as comfortably as it did a few weeks ago. There is also never a shoe that talks back or doesn't fulfill the purpose for which it was purchased in the first place. Quite possibly, shoes are the closest things to lack of disappointment that we, as females, experience - and it feels damn good!

Your littel girl already walking around the house in mommy's heels admiring herself in reflective surfaces? Starts a shoe fund right next to the college fund. Trust me, its the most caring thing you can do for her and you will eternally be her hero.
