High Fashion.... or ankle breakers...






.

This week is Fashion Week and looking at the pictures it got me to thinking.

  I use to do ballroom dancing in spike heels. I could leap and land easily.... finally. But I don't think I could handle just walking in these...




Love the color, but....Ow... that's all...just Ow.

Maybe High fashion, but not for me.




And these just look deadly...


What the....
Iris van Herpen Fang Shoes. My feet just fainted.Is this for self defense????


But it looks like I am not the only one with walking issues in high fashion shoes....

Even the people who are trained how can't walk in these shoes.
Even Super Models can't do it....



Another one bites the dust.
Can she save herself....

Nope.... another one bites the dust...


But they were not the only ones ....

After slipping up while walking down the runway, this model hides her face in utter shame.

This lady had the right idea....



A model loses her shoe when she presents a creation from the Brian Reyes Fall 2009 collection Feb. 19, 2009. Models present creations from the Brian Reyes Fall 2009 collection barefoot after a number of them lost their shoes during New York Fashion Week Feb. 19, 2009.


This may be the only way safe way to show off you shoe fashion sense ...

In honor of Valentines Day

Happy Valentine's Day!!!!

   In honor of Valentine's Day I would like to share a quote on Love.... the reason for the day, at least now.

"Love doesn't make the world go round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile."
Franklin Jones




As for the true history of the day:  Watch this video from the History Chanel.






 I would also like to personally thank the Aztecs for their contribution to the day....






And last but far from least...


A tribute to the day and to Whitney...





Rest In Peace. You and your beautiful voice will be missed.
