Shoe Boxers

I really, really, really hate the look of plain ole toe nails peeking from an open toe shoe or sandal. It just think it’s plain ugly. I see this everyday on the street. And I suppose that’s ok. But when I see celebrities who are making goo gobs of money with naked toe nails, it really irks me. I mean, they spend hundreds of dollars on the shoes for the red carpet occasion. Designers like Jimmy Choo, Christian Louboutin, Stuart Weitzman, Brian Atwood, Manolo Blahnik among others grace their pampered feet. I’m sure they have pedicures before the occasion as well. At least I hope so. (If not, I can hook them up for $15) So why not just put a little paint on those tootsies??? It greatly improves the presentation.

Check out these red carpet unpainted toes:

Rosario Dawson

Tyra Banks

LeAnn Rimes

Jenna Jameson

Carrie Underwood

Take a cue from Nicole Scherzinger

Ok, I thought I was over the Oscar buzz, but check this out – Stuart Weitzman’s (love his shoes), $500,000 30 Carat Diamond Dream Shoes were to be worn by Anika Noni Rose (Dreamgirls) at the 79th Annual Academy Awards airing February 25, 2007 in Los Angeles, California.

Here’s the shoe:

And Here is Anika in the shoes:

Now, I love shoes and diamonds like the next girl. But $500,000 for a one pair? That is dreaming.

I’m not a fan of flats. I much prefer heels to those flat shoes that give no shape to the leg and help with a graceful walk. However, I realize that flats are a necessary evil. To that end, Nordstrom has some pretty new cute flats on it’s site. Since I work on my feet on occasion, a stylish pair of flats with good cushioning and support are of utmost necessity. I found a couple pair that I could live with.
This Via Spiga black patent slingback flat with a bow across the toe would look chic with either pants or skirt. A nice office shoe, or a good shoe for someone who has to stand for long periods. I love this brand, their shoes wear well and last for years if properly cared for.

I love Stuart Weitzman shoes. His shoes are usually sexy and glamorous. These patent flats, also with a bow come in brown or black.

One last pair that I am definitely going to purchase are by Cole Haan with the Air technology from Nike. Black patent, with a twist on the Mary Jane and extremely cute. Nordstrom’s descriptions:
Patent leather trims a quilted calfskin mary jane, designed with a fully padded sock liner, ultimate Nike Air cushioning and a lightweight rubber nub sole. Leather upper and lining/rubber sole.
By Cole Haan; imported. $165
Salon Shoes.

With flat out gorgeous shoes like these, a devoted stiletto diva like me can have a change of heart.
