Nothing Stands Between Me & My Shoes
“They went into my closets looking for skeletons, but thank God, all they found were shoes, beautiful shoes”
-Imelda Marco
Cars aren’t the only thing getting us around these days, our shoes are! What once started off as a simple foot covering is now an item of style, design and comfort. The development of shoes have come a long way. In as early as 1000 BC, the need for foot support was recognized by the Ancient Egyptians. As its purpose evolved, the idea of style seemed to dominate comfort. Today, shoes serve as a fashion statement, and designers know how to satisfy our cravings -for shoes that is.
Like people, shoes have character. The insole, outsole and midsole are just parts that bring it together. Every girl has a list of qualities they seek for in a man and the same goes, when seeking the right pair of shoes. Yes it’s true, we purchase our shoes according to that very same checklist! Aside from the fact that it matches our favorite blouse, we often observe the heel, color, texture, accessories, and how long they’ll actually last.
Owning more than 1,000 pairs of shoes is what made the former Philippines first lady, Imelda Marcos the worlds best known shoe collector. Now let’s see who can top that! Marcos walked in shoes by designers such as Givency, Chanel and Christian Dior. Today, those size 8 ½ shoes are on display at the Marikina City Footwear Museum in Manila. Marikina is known as the shoe capital of the Philippines. Famous shoes have not only walked up and down its streets but have made its mark, giving roads names such as Sandal Street and Slipper Street.
Shoes have become a desire to both men and women. Sandals, boots, loafers, and moccasins, are just a few that you can catch both sexes walking in. Though our needs and wants for shoes will continue to vary, I guess it’s safe to say: finding the right pair of shoes is like finding a soul mate.

That’s why today, so many woman are in love with their closets! Why is that after a bad breakup, a 9 to 5, or that never ending to do list, we reach out to materials for guidance? Whether we’re adding a new garment to our collection or a pair of earrings to our jewelry box, the idea makes us feel “re-invented.”
Without speaking verbally, textures, colors, patterns and materials have a way of communicating with us. Needless to say, our way of responding is usually through our wallets. But who’s to say all women are materialistic? Our appetites for materials just seem to vary. Some of today’s men find themselves engaging in this habit as well. While some women are using yoga as their escape, others find the mall to be their closest get away. Everyone has a way of venting; and shopping has just become one of those outlets
Sometimes purchasing the right pair of shoes can lead us in all the right directions,” say’s Penn State student Bianca Francis. “Everyone has a different outlook on shopping, but it’s the one thing I do that allows me to be in control.”
Let’s agree to disagree! Shopping can easily become an addiction. The more we buy, the happier we are. Besides, what’s more satisfying than the reward that you can give yourself? Keep in mind that this won’t solve our boyfriend or work related issues, but it does serve as a helping factor; allowing the mind to stimulate while putting stress at ease. This is why it’s encouraged to do so responsibly.
The great thing about it is that it doesn’t have to be done alone. Shopping is known to stir up communication, so possibly bring a friend, or two. So women, let’s continue to love our closets but most importantly ourselves
