Why do we love shoes?
Another new segment that I’m working on is going to be a weekly post about shoes. Because along with jewellery and accessories, they are another part of my wardrobe that I love. I don’t think I’m shoe obsessed, I do own more than the average woman out there but then, it’s my job….right?!
More than just writing blog posts about how wonderful said pair of shoes are, I thought I’d try and understand why we love them so much. I mean, why do we spend so much money on items that can sometimes only be worn once (wedding), may not fit but you buy them anyway (on sale) or that you know are impractical (stilettos that sink into the lawn at a garden party)?
I think I love shoes because I feel they are the completion of what I have chosen to wear for that particular occasion. I even own 4 pairs of runners so that I have options when I exercise. Now that I articulate that, it seems crazy and unnecessary. And part of me knows that it is. Yet, it never really stops me adding shoes to my wardrobe.
Anyhow, I’m on a quest to find out about why we (and I say we because I know I’m not alone!) love shoes so much. Are you coming with me?
Where are these beauties from I hear you ask? Florsheim that’s who.
