Morning Shoe Report: Election Day Distractions, Plus Ughs
Tuesday, November 4…Happy Election Day, everyone. For the anxiety-ridden voter, I offer shoe-related distractions: For your ogling pleasure, I give you patent Alaia boots worn by the singer Estelle; open-toe, fringed, and pierced ankle boots by Foxy Brown; a follow-on to Madonna’s gun shoes, Mafia black-and-white knuckle shoes; and lots and lots of lust-inducing ankle boots…Despite one fashion editor calling them a “monstrosity…you may as well shuffle down the street in your pajamas and a pair of incontinence pants,” Uggs have apparently become the must-have accessory among celebrity men; they even seem to be recession-proof…FabSugar puts the (sponsored) spotlight on avant-garde shoes by Pour La Victoire…Just who is this Manolo Blahnik fellow anyway?…The race is on to name the skyscraper heels we’ve all been hearing so much about: Among the terms being floated: Cougar Catchers, Cougar Choos, Spites, Oh-07s, Pump Palaces, and Palins…Denim company 7 for all Mankind has teamed up with Schwartz & Benjamin to create a line of footwear.
