Gianvito Rossi - electrify! |
Have you fallen in love recently?
I have. They cost XXXeuro !!
I swear I’m trying my best to move on to
the next guy. I mean pair of heels.
This is what I CANNOT STAND ABOUT LIVING
IN ITALY. And what’s worse is when an expert internet shopper friend (grazie
mille Susi!) joins you for an afternoon of dedicated heel browsing. I
surrender! So much more alluring than a dating site. Oh, geez, a thousand times
over.
Since when did shopping become so
sinful? At first it was just a crazy afternoon thang, or being tossed about
between sale seasons, or a guilty shopping bag under your coat when you crept
in the door after dark. And the new heels worn only after a couple of weeks so as
not to arouse suspicion.
What?
These old things? Had them for years..
But these days internet shopping is
hardcore. It’s two steps away from porn. You should have heard the ooohhhs and
aaaahhhhs from the kitchen table the other afternoon. The photos favourited and whatsapped.
The number of times we came back to our dirty favourites. And how we pored and
pored. And pored. Left side view, from the back, oh the lovely shot from the
front dyou like these ones??
I swear. Is this what guys do over big
boobs and wild positions?
And it truly does feel so sinful. As you
go deeper and deeper down the page it is a descent into fiery, credit-card
melting depths. To get this far you have to toss your soul out the window or
better, sell her to the shoe devil that has overtaken your mind... Jimmy Choo,
Dior, YSL, Charlotte Olympia.. Oh the shiver! And these thrills are not cheap I
tell you.
And of course the WORST thing you can do
is internet shop when there’s a bottle of vodka in the freezer. Right? When you
have a couple of hours to kill before a dinner party and the time is just-right. Don’t
go there ladies. Don’t open that bottle. Don’t get out those shot glasses.
It will hurt.
Ahh but sinning feels so good, doesn’t
it? The shock of the new. The burst of the new season. The touch of new,
groomed leather against your skin.
Okay. Deep breath. A bit of yoga or
saintly mediation? Nahhh… I promise I didn’t buy a pair. Yet.
It’s, err, not as if my, um, shoe
cupboard is empty.
I recall almost falling into the shoe fetish pit after spending too long in St Tropez watching the shoes prance past me - I'd never had a thing for shoes before that time. Later I was in Monaco and was contemplating E300 on a pair of turquoise shoes and stopped myself and bought a new laptop instead! I doubt I would have a house today if I'd gone down that ever tempting road!
ReplyDeleteMmmm I admire you Ingrid!! I've been hobbling down that road for years..
DeleteI admire you more!!! Looking forward to some girl time!
ReplyDeleteYes! Come at sales time! X
Delete:)
DeleteI gave up on heels years ago. I have a huge collection of jeweled flat sandals. I can't resist them. Giuseppe Zanotti has done very well with me.
ReplyDeleteI think my daughter is waiting for me to give up my heels but I can't!! Zanotti's sandals are divine.
DeleteI still love heals but now it is flats for me, sadly. I can relate to so much of your story and I laugh about, what these old things, had them for years. How fun, a few vinos, special girlfriends and porn heels. Lyn
ReplyDeleteYes we had a great time. I am still yearning for the sandal hit though!
DeleteThose shoes, those beautiful, evil shoes. I would be the only one in town and possibly in the whole state rocking a pair of stilettos, if I ever did. Sadly it's more of a galoshes look around here.
ReplyDeleteWell I'm my neighbourhood the shoe scene is rather soft too.. But a girl can create an occasion. I can remember rocking up to the car park to collect a skiing child, wearing a pair of mean stiletto boots because I'd done an all-nighter. The mammas were gobsmacked!
DeleteYour post has me laughing Catherine. You'd better snap these up before Matera in Septmebr. They look absolutely PERFECT for hiking up the steep cobblestoned streets after a few glasses of wine. : )
ReplyDeleteHahaha ! But can't I walk barefoot and sling my heels on my wrists and make a wobbly restaurant entrance afterwards? you know I tried them on in Milan they were divine!
