All That Glitters…
All that glitters may not be gold, but that’s alright with me. While items with a bit of sparkle may be thought for special occasions, I think they work quite nicely worn casually as well. And besides, isn’t each and every day a special occasion?
A License to Shoe Shop!!!
A few weeks ago I was reading the New York Times and ran across an article in the Real Estate Section that I just have to share…

To Sell an Apartment, No Detail Is Too Small
An expensive shoe closet: worth every dollar. Michele Kleier of Gumley Haft Kleier has found that when buyers walk into a closet filled with Christian Louboutins, they are likely to pay more of a premium than what the seller spent on her shoe collection. She advises sellers, “You can buy 25 pairs of designer shoes, put them in your closet, and they’re going to get more than you spent on them.” That’s because, Ms. Kleier said, “people want to step into your life.”
Now, I don’t know about stepping into someone’s life. I like my life, and some folks have some real “is-shoes”; they know who they are. I wouldn’t want to walk a step in their “figurative” shoes much less a mile. That said though, their “literal” shoes — provided they are even remotely close to the right size — might be a consideration.
