Cosmic! Just last week, I brought home a pair of gorgeous Steve Madden slingback platform high heels in cherry red patent leather--I had to have them. They made my shortish sturdy legs look--- well-- longish! AND they were startlingly comfortable. Talk about confusing-- I almost left them in the store, I couldn't fathom how it could be possible, until some guy walking by said "Those look great on you!" And he wasn't the staff! After that I had to... what a pushover I am. Non, je ne regrette pas...
A lot of those reds are too aggressive for me- at least how they show up here- I prefer the cherry to burgundy range for my size 10 feet! Isn't it wonderful what a pair of red shoes does for your mood?
Miss J tried a similar Cole Haan- peep-toe w/ slingback... OH, they were dreamy! And alas, out of her budget. She settled for something similar... "Settled" being the key word here. Though they are a shorter, kitten heel they don't feel nearly as stable as the better-made Cole Haans...
I fell in love with the Cole Haans, bought them and they were very uncomfortable for me. That was a surprise since I own 3 other pairs of CH. Salesperson said sometimes patent leather fits differently. I love red shoes and think all women need at least one pair!
Just today, shortly after I accidentally bought a MaxMara jacket, I watched a woman try on a beautiful pair of dark red patent pumps with a heel that looked just about good for walking in ... Something else I need?
