The WHYY Radio Times program I just overheard while eating breakfast in my kitchen discussed the life of Salvatore Ferragamo and his devotion to quality (which I proudly own a vintage pair of navy and white heels!!) to Feminism and the Stiletto.

Honestly, I am a feminist (I believe in the power of women? Duh.).
Yet, anyone can interrupt anything how they choose. In past history men did enforce women wearing a heeled shoe, even men did at one time. The Second Wave Feminist Movement of the 1970's found underlying negative metaphors of the stiletto, such as high heels being designed 'to make women helpless and vulnerable' or to reduce 'the woman to a sex object by sacrificing practical comfort in favor of an alleged increase in sex appeal' (Elder), which may or may not be true.

However, only wear heels because YOU like them, not because a man likes them on you. I have a few pairs so comfortable that I can run in them if desired, and they elongate my legs to portray a thinner appearance of my overall figure (#win), especially on my feelin'-fat-days. Most importantly, they make me feel a beautiful type of fierce.

Dark to White: Newly Painted Bedroom Furniture

They were a beautiful Cherry-stained dark hardwood, but my bedroom was recently painted Tiffany Blue with all woodwork a fresh white.... So these had to go, too, according to Mummy's orders (it is her house, and "If mom's happy, everyone's happy" -Dad...)
