Digital ravings of an analog girl

Last night, in an attempt to get shoe month going how I wanted, I became a follower of Messrs Choo, Blahnik and Louboutin on Twitter.  I figured they might follow me back and stumble onto shoe month. So far… nuthin’.  But in case you ever read this, Jimmy, Manolo or Christian (can I call you […]

When I was little, my mum used to threaten me with ‘the slipper of pain’ when I was naughty.  I think I only copped the slipper a couple of times (this was pre-Anti-Smacking-Bill, when beating your children was still legal), but the memory of the sting and humiliation kept me in check till I was… Heck!  Till now […]

Check out my tan boots, photographed from the feature angle (i.e. from behind) by my lovely assistant Hannah.  What I really should do is put up a pic of my lovely assistant Hannah – she’s very cute – but she’s gone home for the day, and I’m pretty sure it’s good etiquette to ask before you […]

After my near-naked trapse on the internet in my jandals yesterday (surely the foot equivalent of appearing in a thong), I felt the need to cover up today – hence the red ankle boots under conservative pants.  The pedal nudity worked however. Wow! Up to 177 twitter followers today. 65 of them are diet gurus.  80 are […]

Today I’m heading out for a pedicure, so I’m wearing my jandals, even though it’s freezing outside.  Of course, during this time of the year, no-one sees my feet, so why get a pedicure?  Well, aside from the impetus to wear every pair of shoes I own for shoe month, it makes me feel good.  […]

Last night my gay ex boyfriend Mark* took me out for dinner and a movie.  It’s always a dilemma what to wear when one goes out with one’s gay ex.  On the one hand, Mark is always well groomed and wildly attractive to both men and women, so I don’t want him showing me up.   […]

YAY! Today I got my first foot fetish follower on Twitter!  At last, shoe month is succeeding!  Come out of the woodwork all ye weird-ass fetishists.  I want the blog posts, key words, status updates and tweets to work. Sadly, my FFF will be woefully disappointed with the tatty yellow sneakers I’m wearing today.  So sorry – it’s casual […]

Check out my red Mary Janes.  Comfy, cute, and, as it happens, conversation starters.        This morning while waiting for the lift, a lady complimented my shoes, telling me she had a similar pair… that were blue …and wedge heeled …and not Mary Janes (so not that similar at all really…), that her […]

Today I have on my F***-me boots.  I wasn’t going to call them that, but Madge greeted me this morning with ‘I see you’re wearing your…’ (thanks Madge).  But, now that you mention it…       Anyway, I wore the boots in honour of my car.  I got these boots and my car in […]

   Check out the studded wooden wedges I’m wearing today.  I bought these shoes because I like the hole in the middle of the heel.  It makes something quite solid and clunky look very elegant.  Unfortunately, I can’t say it makes my shoes any easier to walk in.  These shoes are made for standing in […]
