Forget Lust, This is LOVE!

The past few days, I have been using this blog to reflect on life's deeper issues. I have been pleasantly surprised by the countless shoe stories shared by friends and acquaintances who have been following my blog. As a tribute to my fellow shoe fanantics (or some would say fetishists!), today I will post about shoes which is what started me on my journey!

Perusing through my e-mails, I opened a sale notification from Saks.com, keeping my fingers crossed that I might find my red soles on sale. Alas, only in hot pink or yellow. Since I owned a pretty impressive collection of Charles Jourdan's back in the 1980's, I have gone the every color of the rainbow route. I am not all that tempted to revisit, although I did have quite a bit of fun traipsing around New York in shades of red, yellow, white, and aqua.

Time for some fantasy shoe shopping. Hit Christian Louboutin and see what happens. The usual charming suspects, lined in a row. I notice a suave shoe in the second row. Hmmm. This needs closer examination. I believe this shoe is winking at me. (And I haven't even had any cocktails today!) The LOVE pump? 4 inch black heels with the red sole; red patent design by throat. This design spells LOVE in shiny patent leather when together as a pair. I think I may have found the shoe of my dreams when I wasn't even looking! Fascinating, great sense of humor, dashing, sexy, this shoe has it all! I know the Simple 100 may be more classic and staid. But this shoe is too good to be true!

I hope all my single readers out there can find love as readily as I found the shoes of my dreams. I know your mothers have probably advised you love is found when you are not looking for it or when you are doing something else like attending a Learning Annex class in a male-dominated subject like Car Repair for Dummies. But, there is so much more excitement in catching the eye of that tall, handsome stranger in the corner. (Or in my case, the debonair pump at Saks.com!)
