Shoes!

The beauty at Cashon & Company has tagged me in the Hello Lover Award. Here's her post:
www.cashonandcompany.blogspot.com/2010/05/hello-lovers-beautiful-bloggers.html
 The rules are for me to join the fun by sharing my favorite seven shoes (this was no twist of the arm since I love, love, love shoes.) I believe our preference for style of shoes is perhaps, one indication of our preferred style for interior design. I say preferred because I've met many people who tell me that their home is not representative of them. This happens for many reasons; some homeowners know what they like, but don't how to get there on their own, some individuals are renting and some just don't have an interest. So, in some ways we express our style through our attire.

When I think of my favorite shoes I immediately think of my wedding shoes. I still wear them either for fancy occasions or with a pair of jeans and a great top. I love these jewel studded shoes! I've been known to pack certain shoes in my carry-on luggage when traveling...these being one of them!    

When it comes to heels I refer to them as my "stepping out shoes" (comes from my NYC days)...stepping out of the apartment into a taxi, stepping out of taxi into a restaurant/show, you get the idea. I LOVE heels, but I mostly sport them for evenings out.  
And, because my life is much more practical than wearing heels everyday I have an assortment of ballet flats. Here are two of my favorites. 
     
I simply can't get enough of flip flops, whether they come from the drug store or not. They are my go-to footwear in the summer and if you were to bump into me you'd probably find me in one of my many pairs.
I hope these wonderful ladies join us in a little blog diversion and have some fun with shoes!
I'm tagging the following seven:

What do you think? Does your fashion style relate to your interior design style? Have a great day!

Fun post...my best friend used to lived in NYC until she married an administrator at a boarding school in NH. Talk about a change of lifestyle....but I always loved the concept of "taxi" shoes when I visited her....

I love shoes too although these days you will usually find me in practical ones. We are headed to FL soon and my husband is not yet aware that a trek to the new Louboutin store is on the agenda....

Hi Lisa! Thanks for showing off your foot jewelry :) I love seeing what other women's favorites are; I've always thought you could tell a lot about a woman by looking at her shoes. And by looking at yours, you're a woman with superb taste ;) Thanks for another great post! -Jenelle

Beautiful shoes and toes! I love that you still wear your wedding shoes....I had always planned on doing that with jeans but forgot somehow. I will be pulling them out soon, I need a special date with my love.
So sweet to think of me...these days are just workout shoes and flip flops, boring I know!

I love your post about the butterflies...we plan on doing that. Very cool!
