I have been writing about celebrities and pop culture on EverythingMom now for a while, and can I just say how much I love it...I have covered many topics from fouled mouth A list stars to cheating on the D list.
Yet I have not covered the topic of celebrity style, and to me, all good style starts from the bottom up. Yes...shoes.
There are many brand names thrown around the celeb world when it comes to shoes, and I do believe I pine for them all. In researching this topic I even found a website dedicated solely to Celebrity Shoe Size. George Clooney wears a size 11 shoe by the way, a 42 regular coat, 35 X 32 pants, a 15 X 34 shirt and a 22 hat . What? I am thorough.
One of my favourite spots for fabulous shoe porn was available to me every Friday night thru the tiny 13 inch television screen I used to have in my bedroom when I was a younger, single women. The fabulous four women of Sex and the City introduced me to a totally new world of shoes. Manolo who? The show made the designer a house hold name. The character of Carrie owned up to spending over $40 000.00 just on shoes. Um ya...I could do that. The blue satin heels in the feature film were custom made, CUSTOM MADE MANOLOʼS! Slap my ass and call me happy. They are now available for $945; Iʼll take two pair. I wish.
Steve Madden, Dior, Prada, Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, oh how I love you. The list just goes on and on, one fabulous heel after another. This shoe literally changed how much we now focus on celebrities shoes. On any red carpet it was usually always about “Who are you wearing?” referring to the dress. Yet now after shoes in SITC basically being another character in the show, now the focus has moved to the feet. The shoe designers themselves have become quasi celebrities themselves. I know I would squee if I ever met any of them, and them BEG them for shoes.
Do you have a fave shoe designer or celebrity shoe lover? Favourite movie with some fabulous shoe porn? Devil Wears Prada perhaps...Please tell me I am not alone with this affliction for the love of footwear.
I have parlayed my love for shoes into trying to do something good in my own backyard. We donʼt have any celebrity shoes, yet, but we have some fab shoes to raise money for a fabulous cause. Please take the time to check out www.heelinghunger.com and be sure to tell your friends.
