Dear Carrie Bradshaw::

Dear Carrie Bradshaw,
I get it. Not wanting a ring, instead, a pair of Jimmy Choos. I dream about sliding on a pair of Christian Louboutin heels with a red sole. I think if that ever happens pigs will fly, unicorns will prance, at the end of every rainbow will be a pot of gold, butterflies, laughter, and candy will fill the air, there will be peace on earth, somebody will find a cure for cancer, and global warming will be resolved. Needless to say, let’s skip back to my reality … exit Jimmy Choo and ole Christian enter forever21, and shoe sales at any department store I can find. The amazing thing about shoes is I honestly don’t think they ever go out of style. Ok Ok, I don’t really believe anything goes out of style since my pockets aren’t very deep but really, shoes???? It’s just not possible. I am the biggest lover, fan, supporter, protester, for a pair of shoes. If you are having a bad day, go buy shoes. If you are fighting with a friend, go buy shoes. If you either don’t have a boyfriend or currently hate the one with your with, go buy shoes. I promise, it will turn your frown upside down. I think I have made it clear how much I enjoy shoes. Let me get to my point. It is so simple to take a pair of old shoes you might be sick of and turn them into gold. How you ask…. pair them with socks. This trend can be seen everywhere right now and it will definitely follow us into summer. You can wear a pair of socks with open toe pumps and a onesie, a skirt, calf-length pants, shorts, etc. You can also wear your socks with closed toe pumps now since it’s still chilly. I really love this style.
