Louis Vuitton Spring Sandals

Posted by MizzTissa on February 17, 2011 at 11:37 am

At first glance I fell in love. The strappy design and minimal appearance of Louis Vuitton’s RTW sandals are classy.

Then I discovered there are similar versions with other types of animal heels, [...]

The best gift is often the ones we buy ourselves. Not to be unappreciative, but I love shopping way too much to believe someone (even with list in hand) could ever do it as well as I do. When buying for ourselves, shopping can be a high. I’ll admit I’m addicted, but don’t think I [...]

Some high heels are to die for, and some look like shit, and now there’s a pair even made from them. London-based designer INSA’s 10 inch elephant dung heels.

Accessorized High Heels

There was an interesting addition to Beyonce’s T-strap Dior shoes at the BET awards in Los Angeles. I know its hard to look past the dress, but try. Mizz Knowles platform heels have a beaded accessory on the heel, similar to what you might see on an ankle strap of some sandals. Here’s a close [...]

Shoe Shopping – Something For Work

Posted by MizzTissa on June 29, 2009 at 4:05 pm

Finding a suitable pair of heels for work that look good without making you look like the office floozy can be a bit of a challenge. It doesn’t take much to get people talking and if your skirt were too short or something about your shoes they don’t like, then I’m sure they’ll let you [...]

A Brief History of High Heels

Posted by MizzTissa on March 12, 2009 at 8:48 pm

Have you ever wondered where it is that high heel shoes came from? Let’s face it, it’s no accident. Originally created for Catherine de Medici, who wasn’t vertically challenged, but wanted to stand tall alongside her fiance’s mistress who was slightly taller. This was around 1533, so the soon to be king having another woman was [...]
