Well this month has been just a random encounter of events... Not to say that it wasnt a good month... it was just kind of weird.
I started a membership with Kim Kardashians' ShoeDazzle.com... I have to say I was quite surprised with it all and too excited to get my shoes delivered to me... It all started because I have an unreal shoe fetish... I have several pairs of shoes that I have yet to wear and bought them just because. I know a lot of women have a love for shoes and other accessories, but mine is really a fetish... I have all types of shoes and have even tried to downsize by donating some to charity only to have outgrown my closet yet again...
So anyway... I joined and upon joining you are greeted with a survey of sorts... A survey to discover which designers lines you like more than others... I can see how this would give them a sense of who you are and what you like... but I really believe this survey should be given monthly, because my tastes have been known to change drastically from one period to another...
The next step was to wait 5 days and they (personal professional shoppers/stylist) would select 5 shoe styles for the month for me to choose from... The shoes they sent were, in a word, FABO-LOUS... yes indeed I not only wanted 1 pair... I wanted about 4 out of the 5 (could be attributed to my fetish but who knows) I mean I didnt have a particular outfit in mind for these shoes but I wanted them...
Now, the thing with shoedazzle.com is you pay a monthly fee and get a pair of shoes each month for the fee... I was curious as to whether the workmanship and quality of the shoes would be up to par. (I am a Kim fan, so I kinda started out trusting the service.)
The shoes shown to me were 1 pair of low heeled shoes with crystals (ick!), 2 pairs of boots that were to die for, 1 strappy stiletto sandal (another one to die for) and another pair of heels that were aptly titled "Vixen" with an ankle tri-clasp and a heel as high as the Empire State Building, also a bonus shoe was offered for the Wear Red campaign of the American Heart Association and they were HOTT as well... ::side note: they sold out before I could pick them up:: Im not a big fan of blood red anyways... but I digress... I picked a pair of tan suede boots with a strap of suede cris-crossing its way up the calf of the boot... MAH-VELOUS... really...
When I got these boots in the mail... I lost my breath, literally, they are gorgeous and everything I hoped they be... They fit so well and I got plenty of compliments and people asking "Where did you get them?" my response: Ancient Chinese Secret lol... I was not ready to divulge my sources as of yet... You see, I have a very common shoe size and if I give out my source I was sure to be cat fighting with another lover of shoes... I couldnt bear it right away so I stay tight lipped about it for a while... I cant stand buying shoes at dept stores or Payless (ugh) I have to be unique in my finds... and I promise you this... you will be hard pressed to find someone with the same shoe as me at any given time... I am pretty secretive about where I buy my shoes... I love Boutiques and the low quantity they have for that very reason...
Needless to say I cant wait to see what the March selections will be... I have become a shoedazzle.com member for life...
