You troublemaker! Now I want new shoes!

Lisa said...

I like shoes with a bit of a platform on the toe. I can't walk in heels higher than 2.5" so having that platform lets me wear much higher heels but still feel like I'm in my comfort zone.

WendyB said...

I do love square toes.

I love high-heel shoes, despite wearing them every day is dangerous for the back. That's why now I only wear heels on the weekend -normally-. I love the Manolos and also the wide heel pumps, I am looking for ones.
