    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.

    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.

    CC is a bad influence. No matter how many shoes I have... whenever you dig out these gorgeous numbers I just can't help myself. Never heard of Le Silla. I must check out the designer.
