Anything Goes (for women)

I am often amazed by what women can get away with as opposed to men. In the fashion world, women can wear just about anything and the worst criticism they will hear is something looks bad, is inappropriate for the function or doesn’t look good on them.
Men cannot step outside the bounds of pants, shorts and t-shirts, oxford shirts or button-down shirts. Put some crazy color, ribbons or frill on them and you don’t hear the same critisisms. You hear “gay” and “trans” types of comments.

This concept for high heels that have covers to fit any situation appeard on the Yankodesign website. (View Article)
This is a great idea allowing one to change the color or style of a shoe on the run. You can also place a cover on them for different weather. Put the rubber non-slip cover on for a run through the rain and remove them for a stylish dress shoe all day in the office.

Last weekend, I found these great heels at Forever Twenty-One at the mall. They are US size 10 and fit perfectly!
At $20 they seem to be very well built, solid and sturdy. The toe box is HUGE so there is lots of room to wiggle my toes.

Heel Sales Increase In Bad Economy

From CBS News, this clip is about the historical evidence that the sale of heels goes up when the economy goes down.
I happen to love the higher heels and have been happy to see the YSL and other designers put 5″ and 6″ heels in the mainstream marketplace. I like the ankle boots too because so many of them could pass as a more masculine shoe when only the toe shows from under long pants.
