• Love 'em or Hate 'em?
A co-worker that knows how much I like shoes and talking about them sent me this article by Penelope Trunk: Five things that are about to stop sucking at work. I could not pass up sharing number 4…
4. The tyranny of high heels will give way to the pricey, good-for-feet-but-still-sexy, heel.
Academic researchers are finding on many fronts that men like to work with women who dress like women. This means shoulder-length hair or longer, a good amount of makeup but not too trampy, and, yes, high heels. They don’t have to be stiletto, but you need to look like you know how to pull an outfit together. This means that a lot of women are walking to work in flats and switching in the elevator, and kicking their stilettos off under the table during meetings. But that will end, soon, because the Wall Street Journal reports that shoe designers see a gold mine in saving female feet from career-girl frustration.

Was at the mall last week, and can you believe I didn’t take advantage of Famous Footwear’s current BOGO offer? I even had a coupon to use. But I did make a haul at Payless. I got all of the above shoes that were marked down plus used my AAA card for another 10% off for under $20!

[Note from Kim: the wonderful folks from Asgi sent us this pair of shoes for review (thanks much). Asgi is a new shoe company that creates comfortable women's shoes designed in Venice, Italy. Asgi combines a state-of-the-art, patent-pending technology called Soleplex with stylish designs. Since Squeak and I both wear 7.5 (although she is probably closer to a size 7 and me to a size 8 ) that is the size they sent. The first pic of me (I look "puffy"), and although extremely comfortable (and I really like them), they were a tad small for me, so Squeak is the new proud owner of them.]
If you are looking for a comfortable shoe, I’ve found what you’re looking for! The comfort of ASGi is underestimated. I’m not kidding you, these are some of the most comfortable shoes. Best yet they are still cute. How often do you find comfortable and cute in the same pair of shoes? I think a lot of it has to do with the heel/sole. There are several other styles of ASGi to choose from on Endless.com plus Endless is currently offering $20 off right now!
ASGI Gaia Wedge Sandal available from Endless.com (available in Black, Gray &/or Gold)

Yesterday on the Today Show, Hoda Kotb and Kathy Lee Gifford had a “Fish Pedicure” where teethless fish actually nibble away at your feet, exfolliating skin by removing dead skin and calluses. Hoda said it felt good and tingly. These “Dr. Fish Massages” are available in 15, 20 & 30 minute seesions at Yvonne Hair & Nails at two locations in Virginia. Wonder how many other salons will jump on the bandwagon now?

I may never own a pair of actual Manolo Blahnik shoes, but I found the next best thing available for a fraction of the price that will probably end up giving me more shoe satisfaction! Amazon carries these books: Manolo Blahnik Drawings and Blahnik by Boman: Shoes, Photographs, Conversation which would not only make great coffee table books in my bonus room, but I thought I could frame some of the pictures to hang in my house!

Jon is one of my bestfriend’s son. He is a good kid and can get away with wearing whatever he wants. He, his dad and grandpa went to Chicago last week to a couple baseball games. While there were there they went to Niketown, and Jon picked out these multicolored Nike shoes. As you can see they are pretty bright with a pink swoosh and are not something I would wear with a red shirt. But Jon on the other hand can pull it off and it looks ok.
