Hope you had a lovely trip. <br /><br />Yes! It is the construction of the shoe and how the wearer walks in them. I know exactly what you mean. I'll never understand buying and wearing shoes that you can't walk in. It just looks more elegant to actually be able to walk. I'll also never really understand the painful sound of someone trying to walk in heels. Years of dance and gymnastics have made me so light on my feet.<br /><br />I'm so overdue to do a post on maintenance.Lindsay Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08756634487046300517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726508674329469614.post-25186893407593716572012-11-12T23:05:31.531-05:002012-11-12T23:05:31.531-05:00Jenee C.- Thank you!

I think it's the construction of the shoe but also how a woman walks in them. There's nothing more painful than 'hearing' a woman trying to walk in a pair of heels, you can tell just by listening that it'll probably look like a train wreck! I'm looking forward to your post about the tips! xoxoxA Life Un-Styledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08558475767119850748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726508674329469614.post-41227101563073073282012-11-06T02:33:48.032-05:002012-11-06T02:33:48.032-05:00This is incredible, it just made me fall in love w...This is incredible, it just made me fall in love with Louboutins a little more (if that were even possible). I never knew there was actually a term for how a shoe sounded. There's been a few times where I've purchased lovely looking shoes only to be too embarrassed to wear them when I discover the squeaky plasticy sounds they make. I can't wait watch this.<br /><br />xx Jenee C.<br /><a href="http://camomeetscouture.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">{camo meets couture}</a>Jenee C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02272821427550395215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726508674329469614.post-21224541323766961872012-11-01T13:24:31.918-04:002012-11-01T13:24:31.918-04:00catssaymeow- I don't think that sounds sad!

It's great when you find items that combine the two. <br /><br />I don't think anyone would deny that having unworn garments that are collectors items is a waste. Personally I take a lot of pride in the fact that I wear EVERYTHING in my closet and haven't had to really cull because I only bring in items that I love. When I "cull" it's because I've worn an item to bits beyond repair. <br /><br />Big congrats on your house BTW!!! That's a great accomplishment.

At this point in my life (sad as it will sound) function trumps form and the price needs to be right also.

I tried on a pair of his flats and the leather was just too hard, murder on my long toes :) <br />That said, I have always enjoyed his taste - one of my books on designers and their homes features his place and I love his use of colour. It seems to reflect that joie de vivre which came through in your blog post.<br />Besides, you have to hail a shoe-maker who cares about the musicality of his heels.

I'...Chocolate Cookies & Candies- Hi Marlene! I've never had a problem with Louboutins being comfortable. Then again, he was very clear (even when asked if he would ever consider designing for different foot types) that he designs & fits on a narrow form with a high arch (dancing will do that to the foot for sure). Personally, I love a beautiful and elegant shoe, but there's nothing beautiful or elegant about not being able to walk or being in pain. I walk everywhere!<br /><br />There's something very dated to me about pencil heels. Too thin of a heel just doesn't seem right. I don't like too chunky either.

I think Miss Tick hits all the right notes but I wish he brings back more chunky mid heels. They're not as sexy as pencil heels but are far more practical here in Europe where the streets are either cobbled or paved.Chocolate Cookies & Candieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16552211805778583838noreply@blogger.com
