My purple stilettos

                                                                 

I am a city girl, I always have been, and I always will be. My favorite time has always been nighttime! I love driving downtown at night with all the lights on, I love eating out, I love the night lights, I love living in the city and I love my purple satin stilettos.

 A lot of us city girls, no matter how many responsibilities we have, find solace in the fact that we can control what we wear and how we are perceived, a lot of us LOVE shoes. This makes me wonder:  “do we love shoes just for the look of them or is there more to shoes? How do we define our love, or may I say shoe addiction?”

  Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying that our style and fashion define us, what I am saying is that it completes us.  I, myself am a mother to an 8 month old little girl; I juggle life with motherhood, university, my translation work), my fashion blog and day to day life. My escape is fashion, art and that is how I express myself.  My “Me time” is when I am finally able to put on my stilettos and a little black dress; this allows me to feel beautiful on the outside. My satin stilettos are not just shoes to me; they are a representation of who I am outside of my responsibilities as a mother, caregiver, partner etc. I believe every woman deserves to feel beautiful. Of course beauty starts from within but also, once you find that one thing that you put on and make you feel beautiful on the outside, you look forward to it at every occasion. For some, it is perfect little black dress, for others it is those precious pairs of high heels. All this to say that shoes after all, can be a healthy addiction!
