Is It Crazy to Walk In These Or Is It a Shoe Addiction?

Ok…I confess….I love shoes.  I have more shoes than I care to admit at this time.  My closet is overflowing.  My office is decorated in varying heel heights so that I am always prepared whatever the occasion.  I am the CEO of a woman’s shoe company. Ok…I’ll admit it!   I am a shoe addict.

Some might take that as a negative but I relish in it.  I’m know as the “Queen of Heels” and what a great empire to rule…platforms, stilettos, flats, mules, sandals, high heels, kitten heels, boots, Mary Janes…you can call them what you wish.  They are all part of what I call “heaven on earth.”

The true addict has more shoes than what some would deem necessary which is a shock to her.  Someone once asked me if I thought I was excessive and I found myself perplexed as I thought everyone felt the need to have every color foot ornament in varying sizes and shapes.  Making decisions on sizes, colors, shapes, comfort levels, and fabrics is something I do everyday and I can’t say I ever get tired of it but just because of sheer exposure a shoe that makes me go wow has to stand out.  In fact, I pride my company in only selecting these styles.  We are anything but ordinary…because shoe addicts need to be wowed!!

Number One Seller

This shoe arrived at our store a few weeks ago and has caused quite a stir.  I never buy a shoe twice but I had such a demand that I bought every shoe I could get my hands on.  Why so popular?  I think the color has a lot to do with it.  Nude is hot right now!!  It’s an easy kitten heel so the amount of people who can wear them is huge.  The bow is dramatic and has a definite european flair which is not found in today’s styles.  This is a winner with an affordable price….afforable luxury fashion…I told you this was heaven on earth!  (available on eBay  if you can’t get to the store  http://stores.ebay.com/Deborah-Stilettos22).  It is currently available in nude, red and black.  Stunning and one you will not want to pass up.

For those who are looking for a little bit of a wilder look, go no further.  When I spotted these lovelies at the Las Vegas Shoe Show, I knew my shoe addict sisters would melt and they have over and over again when seeing them.  The attraction?  Different, animal print, rhinestones…three strikes only this one gets a home run.

If you aren’t getting your man to whistle a love song when you wear these, you better check his pulse.  A true winner!  I would even call this “zexy”…ok I made it up but isn’t it a good word to describe it?   Available on eBay  http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-HEART-KITTEN-HEELS-CHEETAH-AND-RHINESTONES-SO-UNIQUE-STAND-OUT-/170834293248?pt=US_Women_s_Shoes&var=&hash=item6d756d0ace.

Ok…now for my high heels sisters who graduated with a PhD in heels.  There are not enough words to describe them so lets just say sexy…crazy…heels and leave it at that.

Thoughts While In Heels-Relating to My Heels

This morning I opened my shoe closet to select what heels I would be wearing for the day.  The 5 inch nude Mary Janes…nah…don’t feel like being careful of the path I choose to walk or alert not to step on anyone’s toes today.  The cute ballerina flats…nope…they feel good when I first put them on but after a few hours they become annoying.  My sneakers…they are cute and comfortable but really are boring and predictable.  Maybe my blue suede heels…they hurt from the minute I put them on and cause me hours of after effects like blisters and cuts but like the definition of insanity I keep wearing them expecting different results.  Instead I opted for my beautiful, chunky heel, suede, red booties.  Comfortable yet slightly edgy…soft yet firm in its presentation of the heel…I true delight to wear.

Then it dawned on me how much heels, flats and stilettos were like relationships. Some are comfy and like an old shoe…reliable but lackluster in the thrill department.  Others are painful from the get go and yet we keep hoping they will soften up before they leave us covered in painful blisters.  And then of course, there are the heels that no matter what you wear them with or how long you travel with them on, they just feel good.

Now I am not trying to minimize relationships but wouldn’t it be fun if we could treat our human ties like we handle our shoes?  Just like Pintrest, we could view the shoes and “like” the ones on preview.  Others, sent to us via Facebook Pages could be “unfanned” when they became unappealing, annoying, or overbearing…instead of divorcing.  You could simply resole them, reheel them, change the laces, dye them, or give them to someone who doesn’t have any.  Shop for one on Deborah Stilettos.com and have it delivered in 24 hours without having to make small talk or trudge through a million bad dates.

I love my shoes…but truth be told…they don’t cuddle well with on the couch at night.

Heels To Flip Flops- What Do the Shoes You Wear Say About Your?

Just when you thought it was safe to throw on a pair of flip-flops or slide into a pair of 5 inch stilettos without being judged, the fashion statements you wear on your feet say a lot about your personality and you as a person.

If flip-flops are a staple in your closet, you are most likely a laid back person and comfort takes first prize when it comes to your shoe selection.  In strike comparison, maybe you are never caught without a fabulous pair of stilettos.  You wouldn’t think about going to the grocery store without a stylish pair of heels.  You would probably be a fashion conscious diva who is sexy and stylish.

Then there are those who wear Uggs in the summer.  Attention seekers who don’t mind their feet overheating, these girls are fashion trend setters who are independent thinkers.  Kitten heels are for those who have a sexy streak running through them but don’t like being in the spotlight as much as someone who would be wearing high heels to be an attention grabber.

Chunky heel wearers are those who follow trends and like being current, youthful thinkers. While those who wear sneakers all of the time are sporty and athletic or maybe the mother’s of young children in which they would be sensible.

70′s Mod Heels- Making A Comeback!!

When I started thinking about writing this blog I must admit that I was a little taken back that it was 40 years ago!  My teenage years were spent in the eighties but there was something magical about the disco era.  It was polyester, Afros, and platform shoes.  It was outrageous, fun, and crazy and most of all it’s back again.  So dig through your closet or enjoy these retro fashions…

1970's Retro Remakes

The craze of the 70′s brought bold colors, beefed up platforms in the front and chunky heels that were sometimes even a place to keep your pet fish.

Fish Bowl Heels of the 1970's

 

The disco era brought dancing back in fashion and while the girls and even the guys rocked the night on…these heels proved to be the perfect dance shoe…providing no one stepped on your foot!

Boogie Fever...Dance the Night Away

So I’m curious Bellas…do any of these flashbacks still find a home in your closet?  Or do you remember one shoe in particular that brings back some great memories?  Share with us. I would love to reminicess with you.

Does Size Matter?

Now that I got your attention…does the size of a high heel matter?  Well, of course it does.  There are basically six types of women’s heel lengths.  They are the flat, kitten heel, mid-range, chunky heel, the wedge and the ever so lovely, stiletto.

The flat shoe is loved by many.  It is easy to slip on and off to the races you go.

Available this weekend for $19.95

 

The kitten heel seems to be the beloved shoe of women my age (45).  I think for many women who chose to wear the kitten heel they do because they have been out of heels for so long that it is a nice re-entry into the high heel world.  If you don’t walk well in heels and want to learn, this is a great shoe heel to start.

Available for $39.95 this weekend

 

The mid-range heel is usually a high heel that measures 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 inch in length.  They are more of a high heel experience without crossing over to the high heel stature.  This is probably the most desired of all of the heels and the one that is most often purchased in my store.  Women can still have the experience without too much concern.

One of the most featured heels this spring is the chunky heel.  I think it will really provide women with the opportunity to step it up a notch.  Walking on a chunky heel gives you more stability than say just walking on a high heel.  Many of these shoes have built in platforms in the front which allows for a higher heel.

The beloved wedge…it’s been around forever and we love this shoe because it is fun and easy to walk in.  The shoes below are some of my favorites.  They are crazy high but I can practically run in them.  The are so much fun to walk in and I get so many compliments on them.  These particular shoes are great with tights!!

 

The Wedge- $39.95 this weekend

The final heel is the one I named my store after and is truly my favorite to wear. It’s the stiletto.  This is like the PHd of shoes.  The heel to wear only when you are a veteran in walking in high heels.  These heels are very thin and are usually 4 inches and above.

They are truly an art to walk in and you can’t help but turn heads when wearing them.  Kisses Bellas, Deborah Stilettos  www.DeborahStilettos.com

Flares Are In…What Heels To Wear?

Every time I turn around, another fashion influence from the 70′s seems to be making a come back.  The platform shoe, the chunky heels, the color orange as the exciting palatte of the spring and now…pants with flares.  For any of us who actually remember the 70′s will also recall that this fashion style looks best on a girl who is tall with more narrower hip- neither of which I was blessed.  However, if you can’t seem to put this trendy look on the back shelf, there are things you can do just in case you are height deprived and maybe more volumptous in the hip department.

Off the shoulder tops not only look great with this fashion for the moment look but they will also slim down a more robust hip width.  Whatever you do, DON’T hem flares!  This will only distort the proportions making your body type look clumsy.  Find a company who caters to the shorter woman.  They will have done all of the calculations to make these pants with the proper ratios.

Of course…my love….heels.  Heels, once again to save the day, will give you height just by sliding them on but there is some consideration to make when chosing the right shoe with a flared pant.  The first look gives the look more of a classic, professional look-the pump.  I would recommend chosing a pump with a higher heel.  The most recommended styles are the wedge and chunky platforms for the sheer fact that these shoes are were all the craze during the days of disco.

Flares

Since these pants will most likely follow the fashion timeline of here today and gone tomorrow, I would like to suggest that keeping the pants less trendy by limiting too many embellishments.  Denim seems to be the highlighted fabric.

So have a throwback moment Bellas but perhaps leave that God awful blue eyeshadow in the past.  Us girls from the 70′s will be left up to show the younger girls just how much fun it is to rock this look.

The Chunky Heel…A Prayer Answered to Those Who Love Heels

After two back to back seasons of stilettos, stilettos, stilettos, the fashion gurus have decided to change things up this spring season and offer a reprieve for those who love heels but have a difficult time walking in them. Stilettos are just not for everyone. The flashback of the chunky heel is no longer stuck in our memories- a fashion statement of the past…it is already being delivered to our Deborah Stilettos store in New Hope, Pa. and is also available on our website DeborahStilettos.com.

The only thing that makes a chunky heel even better is when it is no longer a high priced purchase but an affordable luxury.  We have such to show you.

This just in…

 

 

Fabulous Affordable Chunky High Heel

Fabulous Affordable Chunky High Heel

 

This stylish high heel is just calling your name.  Looks great on those work days and blends nicely into the evening hours.  The great part about it is your feet won’t kill you at the end of the night.  The added platform in the front of the shoe also allows for easier navigation giving a nice height enhancement while not putting too much pressure on the foot.  On this particular shoe, the dainty strap is a nice contrast to this boldly stated shoe.

So if you have killed your feet the last two seasons, stumbled around in stilettos, or heaven forbid….gave up heels all together…now is your chance to get back in the game…the game of affordable luxury.  Kisses Bellas  Deborah Stilettos  www.DeborahStilettos.com  and Facebook.com/DeborahStilettos
