A beautiful
heel is as much a diminutive piece of artwork as it is a pair of shoes. Not
only can they add the perfect and very much needed finishing touches to an
outfit; but all while expressing your own unique style and personality; and
enabling you to explore the world! (I can almost picture shoe-holics nodding in
agreement). It is often said that a woman who wears beautiful shoes has great
style.
In the
following quote, Christian Louboutin, talks about the power of shoes & the
connection between heels, style and the individual’s personality.
“There is an element of seduction in shoes
that doesn’t exist for men. Think about Marlene Dietrich crossing her legs –
the whole attitude. The language starts with the shoe and radiates over the
whole body. A woman can be sexy, charming, witty or shy with her shoes. Shoes
for men are about elegance or wealth; they are not playing with the inner
character.
That’s
why women are happy to wear painful shoes. For some a little discomfort is
balanced by something else, which has to do with desire. You feel yourself,
empower yourself, know yourself. You are aware of your body. This little act of
discomfort pays off in lots of other ways.
Her whole
attitude is ‘Here I am’. She doesn’t look like a mouse ready to hide. She has a
strong and active attitude. She is fronting things. She is an actor in her own
life. That’s why a lot of people love and respect her.”
