Shoes For You? Another Pair? Why Not?

Women are absolutely head over heels in love with shoes.

There are a million theories - uneducated male guesses to researched psychiatric analyses - about why women love shoes.

Each theory carries some relevance and truth, but the reason to this love affair is like all love affairs - we know why and there are actually a million reasons why, but it is just so very difficult to explain.

Christian Louboutin

Master Shoe Designer

"I would hate for someone to look at my shoe and say, 'Oh my God! That looks so comfortable!' That's not what I want to project. But I'm not a sadist," he says. "I don't believe suffering makes you beautiful. But comfort is not part of my creative process."

Manolo Blahnik

Master Shoe Designer

"About half my designs are controlled fantasy, 15 percent are total madness and the rest are bread-and-butter designs."

Giuseppe Zanotti

"I try to understand the woman's sensibility. I run from the past and the future to the secret women's wardrobe-every woman lets me into their personal closets. I want to capture their secret desires both in private and everyday life-from shopping to cocktail parties-
to stop and study the little private details in a woman's life."

The "Stuff of Dreams" Shoes

Or A More Realistic Option from Amazon or eBay?

Very dreamy, very pricey, but oh so beautiful.

If they really are a little too much the stuff of dreams, maybe you will find your favourite dreamtime brands on Amazon or eBay - you might be the lucky one to snap a pair for a fraction of the price!

    Yes, I love shoes! I just bought a pair with lots of bling on them and I love them. Here is Mexico we have some awesome shoes. The young ladies love their heels and they have lots to choose from. Thanks for a great lens and the quiz was fun.

    I'm a fan of shoes that look great on a budget but some of these Christian Louboutin shoes have really caught my eye - absolutely divine!

    Thanks for your comments :) I love love love shoes! Sadly somewhere along the line I went from living in heels every day to owning a few pairs of crazy heels and living in flats. Ho hum, a girl can dream!

    Heck no! I hate wearing shoes. It's fairly obvious that some of the more insane designs that press the foot into a 90 degree angle are created by men. Christian Louboutin is very wrong - comfort is key. Beautiful shoes don't have to be uncomfortable.

    I LOVE shoes! The shoes you featured are gorgeous, and if I wasn't afraid of killing myself in a pair I would probably buy most of them!!!

    I would fall and break my neck in most of these shoes, but they sure are fun to look at!

    Me and my bestie have said numerous times, we WILL own a pair of Louboutins in our lifetime. I also need a pair of Manolos too. It's all a work in progress. Loved this lens, it made my heart skip a beat ;)

    I'm not crazy for shoes because I can be very frugal. But, I do like your lens. Great lens. God bless!

    Once upon a time I was crazy for shoes. Now my goals are less lofty. I just want a shoe that doesn't hurt.
  • virtualboy Apr 7, 2012 @ 1:06 pm | delete
    I guess you could say so
  • tylerabernethy21 Apr 7, 2012 @ 12:09 pm | delete
    That is probably some of THE coolest shoes that I have ever seen. I keep finding good lenses to share on Facebook, so I will save this one for later to make sure that it gets good face-time (no pun intended ;] )
  • EmmeSinger Apr 5, 2012 @ 12:37 pm | delete
    Yeah, kinda, I am. Just can't afford 'em! Love the description above: some of my designs are just "total madness". I love that!

    I'm not but, my grandbaby, Jace. he knows they are for going outside...he LOVES the outdoors!

    Thanks so much for visiting. You are probably one of the fortunate if you don't have a shoe fetish!
