Shoes are very emotional. For women, they carry the message that you want to give to the world. One day you want to be sexy, or super powerful at your job - you wear a great pump. If you want to be on-the-go and running after your kids - you wear a great flat.

In retrospect all these exercises in self-gratification seem pure fantasy, what Pascal called “licking the earth.
