Vintage Sandals and Are Men Like High Heels?

Vintage Sandals with swarosvki - SERGIO ROSSI

High heels are like men... : there are good ones who hurt us, those you don’t like from the beginning; those impossible, which can never be yours (crazy expensive/sold out in every store in the world…); those that appeal you at first, but then you realize that they are nothing special… and finally those that you'll never get tire of having with you!*
Well, the heels of these photos belong to this last category… they are a “vintage” pair of Sergio Rossi sandals with little swarovski (I bought them back in 2003...): I never get tired about them...

My "message" for you, girls, in this post is “let’s accessorize"! Nothing new, as super expert fashionistas you already know about this: investing in good accessories, particularly shoes, it’s one of the first "commandment" of any style Decalogue, but also one which (I believe) will never go out of style…

* it’s a free paraphrase by me of a quote attributed to Carrie in Sex & The City: "Men are like high heels: there are good ones who hurt us; those you don’t like from the beginning, those impossible, which can never be yours; those that appeal you at first, but then you realize that they are nothing special… and finally those that you'll never get tire of having with you!"

    1. Thank you! I love the NY stories of the "girls" too... Btw, I'm not sure about the attribution of this phrase to Carrie: I found some Italian websites reporting this quote, but no English one...this is really suspect...

  2. As I told Mafalda, I'm not sure the paragon between high heels and men was actually made by Carrie. I found only some Italian sites reporting this quote, no English ones...which is really suspect. According to some authors , any phrase which doesn't have reliable bibliographic sources in the Internet is attributed 99% of times to Oscar Wilde, Jim Morrison or Albert Einstein − and for the remaining 1% to another (wrong) author... I guess for fashion is attributed 99% of times to Coco Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent and Carrie Bradshaw − and for the remaining 1% to another (wrong) fashion icon...
