A Passion for Fashion and Twisted Ankles

Models, including Canada's own Jessica Stam, literally fell head-over-heels for Prada's, well, heels this past week at Prada's Spring 2009 show. I've never seen anything like this. It's just so blatantly ridiculous to be pushing fashion, even haute couture, to these levels. Below, poor Katie Fogarty one of the many casualties at this show.

For my consideration...

So it's due time I pick up another pair of shoes. It's been an obscene amount of time since I last made a shoe purchase (wow, do I sound like a North American or what!), so I've been on the prowl. On my travels this weekend really remarked the great stuff that Creative Recreation's been doing these days.

These are my favourite, right now. Alas, like everything else, the men's shoes are far superior than the ladies collection. What is it with companies thinking that we all love those wussy looking round shoes with some Polly Pocket strap over it?
