We have talked a lot about boots this season and they are still the must have fashion item for fall 2008. But there are plenty of great shoes we need to talk about as well.
I think one of the more risky choices is one of the hottest shoes of the season from Christian Louboutin “Altadama” watersnake is it’s name. Why is it risky. Well not everyone can pull off the look that it takes to wear this shoe. If you are over 85 and feel a little unsure of the look for you that’s OK. But you can look as fab as a Celebrity. If you can wear the dark glasses you can wear the shoes. Has it been a while since you turn heads? Had them whispering as you walked by? Now is the time to get it back! You know what I am talking about. Make the guys turn their heads and Your girl friends too. Google Altadama to see who is wearing this shoe. You don’t have to sing to look like a star.

the story of foot binding
December 9, 2008
These women’s “golden lotuses” are proof of a foot fetish on a national scale, with hobbled feet acting as another erogenous zone, the most forbidden of them all. Yet, As Wang surveys her tiny shoes, cocking her head from side to side, it’s clear she’s proud of her little feet. “There’s not a single other woman in Liuyicun who could fit their feet into my shoes,” she says. “When my generation dies, people won’t be able to see bound feet, even if they want to. ” — Lauren Tobin
