Red & Green should always be seen

Merry Christmas everyone!

One of my fun Christmas traditions involves wearing one red shoe and one green shoe - obviously of the same heel height.

The only other day of the year that I do this is generally on my birthday, see my birthday post here.
Unfortunately this year due to inclement weather, rough terrain (steep driveways, a cemetery and a bush property) and my ongoing Skankle ankle problems detailed here, I had to wear something more stable and water friendly.

I decided on my fluro yellow / green mini wedge

perfect for the day, easy to clean the mud off and super quick drying. I first fell for these mini wedges months ago, please read about my journey trying to find another pair because I loved them so much here and guess what ladies?! You can now own a pair for a 1/3 of the price I paid, they are now onsale in the online rubi store for $5!!!!!! Check them out here

Merry Christmas everyone and hope you find some epic bargains in the boxing day sales, make sure you check out the online sales today, some retailers already have their sales online NOW!

Kitten heels in height and heart

I have been a liker on Facebook of a page called Shoe Me Gorgeous for many months now, but I only became a buyer from this shoe lover on Tuesday this week.
I noticed on my daily Facebook forage (which is between 1pm-2pm) that Shoe Me Gorgeous was having a sale. I checked through the sale items and found possibly the most unique pair of shoes (not quite as unique as the ones I made myself hypothetically in this blog post) I have seen, and now I am proud to say they are part of my collection.

What do you think??

Not only am I super pleased with my purchase, but also the exceptional customer service from Shoe Me Gorgeous, here are the reasons why I am so charmed:
* Being so close to Christmas I asked the 'contact us' if it was possible to have two different delivery addresses depending on the date it was to be delivered. One being my work address and the other being my home address. I was told 5 minutes later that it wasn't a drama.
* Free shipping for facebook fans on that particular day, free shipping on orders over $70 within Australia, orders can be delivered across the globe (check the countries here) and you can pay via Paypal.
* Then 5 minutes later after placing the order, being such a scatter brain when shoe sales are involved, I remembered that I was going to be away from home after Christmas, so then asked if the shoes could be delivered to my parent's address. Again no drama.
* A few hours later Jessica confirmed the delivery time frame for the shoes, and I decided to risk them being sent to work. So I had changed the address 3 times in the space of a few hours.
* Today, to my utter delight, the shoes arrived at lunch time, on the last day of work for the year. Such great organising and shipping from Adelaide in the Christmas rush!
* I opened the box, it was beautifully embellished inside with pink tissue paper and tiny shoe and love heart confetti! I think it is a lovely personal touch that I have not ever had before, and I order tonnes of shoes online - check my last epic delivery here.


Please think of Shoe Me Gorgeous next time you are buying shoes online, they have a great range and unparalleled customer service. It is one of the most pleasant online shopping experiences I have had .

Learning to crawl before you can strut!

Since my most recent ankle injury <post here> I had been wearing flats, then graduated to a pair of conservative wedges.
Over the weekend I had my work Christmas party and decided that I HAD to wear platform stilettos, there really was no other option. I survived the night without toppling over, so today I recommenced wearing heels to work and think I chose well. What do you think? These have a decent heel height and have the little ankle strap so there is no way this shoe could fall off and potentially send me into another catastrophic ankle death wobble.

I bought these lovely heels on my semi recent Sydney shoe safari, check out the details here.

My SKANKle ankle history

It is about time you all heard the on going saga that is my SKANKle ankle. Ever since I began playing netball (those of you not from Commonwealth nations here is a brief summary of netball), I have had issues with my ankles. This is a list of the foot related injuries I can recall from netball and other things:

• Ankle roll x 4.
• Ankle sprain x 3.
• Ankle sprain with ligament tears x 2.
• Cracked toenail from opposition jumping on my foot x 2.
• Ankle sprain from the warm down in a Zumba class - not my most graceful moments.
• & the most recent of all, both ankles sprained from tripping over my boyfriend's Havaianas whilst wearing my new Guess heels - check them out here, they are very hot!. It is quite funny when I relive it now, as I got an uncontrollable death wobble that I could not recover from, unlike the one in my post entitled "Silver lining of a high heel death wobble", I made a strange noise similar to a crow and fell to the ground in a heap and started sobbing, my poor boyfriend had to quickly run to the concierge desk of the hotel we were staying to get some ice. The one good thing I guess is I am now highly experienced in the treatment of injuries, in particular ankle sprains.

Here are some of my most colourful ankle injuries - enjoy :P

 Right Ankle - 5th June 2012 - Netball Ligament Tears

 Left Ankle - 20th August 2011 - Netball Ligament Tears

Yesterday I thought it was time to see my physio "Benny" about my most recent sprain, he has helped me recover from various ankle sprains but he also blames the wearing of high heels on all my injuries, so I was not keen to tell him how I had actually achieved the most recent injury.
Nervously sitting in the waiting room, Benny called me by saying "What have you done this time?" And once again lectured me about how wearing high heels can severely weaken the muscles around your ankles and shorten your calf muscles, resulting in problems with balance under pressure. I really don't know what he is whinging about - I am paying for his children's education hahahaha. But on a serious note, I have realised that high heels are doing some damage to my feet, ankles and legs and I have vowed to wear flats on the weekends and flats when I have alot of walking to do, keeping a pair of flats in my car for unexpected walking adventures will help this. 

Fortunately being in my line of work means I can still wear heels (once I am recovered) because I get to sit on my butt for the majority of the day x

PS I am due for ankle surgery in April 2013 for the injury on my left ankle from the 20th August - I will need to start buying some pretty flats for my rehab!!!

I love my postman

Just a quick post to share the deliveries I received yesterday!

I hope everyone has a fun weekend & those of you near a Westfield shopping centre expect a crazy day as it is 'Super Saturday' http://www.westfield.com.au/au/gifts/2012/christmas/super-saturday

A great incentive not to buy shoes

Back in May, I decided that I was spending too much money on shoes and buying too many pairs. I thought up a great plan to reward myself for not buying them.

I opened a Smart eSaver account with BankWest, it is an account that pays higher interest if you make regular deposits as oppose to next to no interest if you make withdrawals during the month. Being an accountant this appealed to me because I knew if I touched the account I wouldn't receive interest on my savings and that would make me sad!

The basic premise of my reward system, was to build up my savings account to pay for my shoe allowance during my 2013 trip overseas. These are the rules:

* Each and every time I control myself and DO NOT purchase a pair of shoes I must transfer the price into my savings.
* If the shoes are on sale and I purchase them, I must transfer the difference between the original price and sale price into my savings.
* No money can be withdrawn until I book my overseas trip.


Since opening the account in May, I have over $1,000 saved. Such a great feeling to know despite being a Shoeaholic (confessed here in an earlier blog post) I slightly curbed my shoe buying habits and have something very exciting to look forward to with my reward.

Do any of you out there have something similar in place? How would you suggest I rejig this system to maximise my saving potential?

100% One of a Kind Shoes

It has been a long standing dream of mine to create my own pair of shoes, I recall when I was 14 and decided it would be a great idea to paint my expensive netball shoes blue and yellow (The Parramatta Eels colours). Needless to say my mother wasn't too impressed, and I have barely dabbled in shoe artistry since :).  
Having my foot in the shoe world door and with the help of Facebook constantly 'showing' me shoe pages I have come across two really awesome shoe concepts that would be great for aspiring brides to be.



1. Shoes of Prey
This is an online shoe experience, where you get to choose the style of shoe, colours and fabrics.
This is my creation, what do you think?

 

2. Figgie Shoes 
The shoe detail is custom designed (by you and with assistance if required) and hand painted to create a piece of artwork. You get to pick the shoes (potentially through Shoes of Prey) and send them off to be hand painted. This one of the many beautiful designs from their website.

Link to album

After checking these out I know whenever the wedding bells begin to toll in my life, I will definitely be providing room in the budget for designing a one of a kind, 100% unique pair of shoes for my trip down the aisle.
Speaking of weddings, it is my little sister's wedding this weekend and I have the pleasure of being a bridesmaid in a pair of awesome heels. 
Moo, I hope you have a spectacular day full of love, smiles and laughter x 

Addiction: When 4 pairs of the same shoes are almost enough

My name is Grace and I am a shoeaholic.
Most people associate addiction with various vices in our community (alcoholism, gambling etc). Not to make light of a serious topic, but I can admit that I too suffer from addiction.

After being complimented on my fluro pink open toed 2inch wedges for the umpteenth time on Friday evening, I decided I had to buy another pair in a different colour. I had been on the hunt for another pair before Friday, but they were still full price in Rubi Shoes which was only $29.95 but I couldn't justify another pair of the same shoes for the same price. A few weeks passed by and I checked in Rubi Shoes and all of the 2inch wedges had disappeared, I assumed they had been sent to their factory outlet stores. However, after not seeing them last weekend when I was at Market Central (view my previous blog here) I started to worry slightly.

Yesterday I was at Erina Fair, and wore the famous but elusive pink open toed wedges. I went into Rubi Shoes, hoping for a sighting of the rare creatures and after wandering around I asked the sales assistant if they had any of these <pointing to my shoes> she said yes but she would need some time to find them. 

After searching for a minute or so, the sales assistant found them hibernating under the sale table, in boxes, covered by table cloths. There they were in fluro pink, fluro yellow and silvery goodness. The price was even more exciting than the sighting! Only $15 a pair! I was contemplating on which colour to buy, decided on fluro yellow (check them out here with free delivery on most orders in Aust, US and Asia), then I thought 'why not get the silver too, it will match with heaps of stuff and could be worn in all seasons' so I gathered a silver pair as well. Then I said to the assistant 'maybe I should get another pair of pink, my current ones are almost at replacement stage? hmmmm?' not that I needed outside encouragement to buy shoes but she said "get them, I always buy multiple pairs of the same shoe if I love them, they often sell out or don't stay available for long". Great advice!!!!

I walked out with 3 pairs of the same shoe, a new understanding of my shoe addiction and a great new perspective on life - remember to pull aside the table cloth, you can discover hidden treasures, or occasionally some secret shoes on sale ;-).

Pony Hair Shoes! or are they?

I was checking out a newish shoe shop that opened in Erina Fair, it is a discount shoe shop that has some prices that seem too good to be true.

I picked up one pair that was furry leopard / giraffe kind of print that looked interesting with a very sensible heel height, I checked them over and threw them down in shock as I read on the sticker "Pony Hair". I felt bad not only because I had a slain Pony in my hand and had considered to buy them before I knew their origin, but because I also threw a shoe that wasn't mine.

All afternoon I was making myself sick by reading various posts on Pony Hair, until I realised people in yahoo questions really don't know the facts. I got in contact with PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) just to confirm if my readings were true or not.

This is what I was told "“Pony” hair is typically cow flesh without the fur removed, which companies then market as an exotic item. We recommend always avoiding pony hair and other types of skin, and choosing cruelty-free alternatives instead." This basically means it is cow hide that has been dyed.

This made me wonder why in my own mind buying leather shoes were ok, but buying something that I thought was pony hair, which is actually in essence leather wasn't ok?
I think in my mind I made it ok to purchase leather shoes as leather was a byproduct of the meat industry and I never fully related the word 'leather' to a living creature as in our society it has no relevant link to the name of the animal it was coming from 'Cow', 'Pig', 'Sheep', so it was almost like I forgot that leather came from animals!

I read through some further posts on the PETA website about Fur and Leather in shoes and clothing and their articles are horrific to say the least. But extremely informative. From what I can gather, PETA are not a group of vegans that say don't eat meat (although they do have many articles on how living a vegan lifestyle is healthier), they are more about the ethical treatment of the animals used for clothing and food in slaughter houses etc.

How do you avoid buying shoes and clothing from animal sources? Or are you like me and didn't relate leather to being an animal so never thought about it?

I guess if we continue to buy animal based products, all we can hope for is that the animal was killed in the most humane way possible and skinned as a direct result of being slaughtered for the meat in the first instance.

What are your thoughts?

Sydney Shoe Safari

I am not long home from another awesome weekend away, this time in Sydney with my boyfriend. The main reason for the trip was to see Cirque Du Soleil. However, amongst many other touristy things, much to my boyfriend's delight we embarked on an impromptu shoe safari.

Saturday morning the safari kicked off at the unlikely place of circular quay. I saw a woman sightseeing in a pair of 6inch stilettos, a man wearing fluro orange joggers and I overheard a woman heading off on a wedding water cruise say "My feet are already hurting" It was only noon, If only she had read this previous post before organising wedding outfit! 

The safari continued at QVB where I found a great little shop Freelance Shoes and I was happy to find out that they had multiple stores including an online one that has free shipping!! Yipee! I had my eye on an awesome pair of heels but they didn't have my size :( so I just purchased them online hehe.

We continued through Pitt St mall and Westfield checking out a few shoe shops along the way and then I saw the biggest stiletto I have ever seen, surely the chick that this fits does not need any extra height?

Now onto George St, we had brief look through Novo and Wittner clearance stores, and I apparently spent the whole time saying "Oooo i have those and those and those and those".



Day 2 of the safari saw us at the cheaper end of town - Paddy's Markets and Market City. It was here that I made my first official purchase on the shoe safari. Massive purple wedges from Rubi Shoes for only $10. These shoes are possibly the highest I own, it is like a whole new world up there, I saw the top of my fridge this afternoon and I didn't like what was up there!

Rubi Shoes has one of the funniest advertising slogans I have seen, I initially saw it in Singapore last year, and it makes me giggle everytime I see it now.

Another clever shoe advertisement was on the front of the centre directory map at Market City - what do you think???.I go bananas for shoes!!

I then purchased these babies from Shoe Box, my mum will attest to this, that Shoe Box has been a favourite of mine at Market City since I was about 11 years old. Shoe Box also has a great online store with free shipping aswell!!!

It was while I was purchasing these, that I looked over to find my boyfriend resting, he was obviously all tuckered out after our super fun weekend away and the awesome unplanned shoe safari. I look forward to future shoe safaris and I am sure he does too ;-)

And the winner of a +$90k Lexus is....

Amy Robson is the winner of the 2012 Myer Fashions on the Field, and she collects a massive prize pool (mentioned in a previous post here) for all her hard work. Apparently, Amy and her grandmother made the majority of her outfit (Newspaper Article)

Link to newspaper article and pic

What do you think of her outfit? And most importantly her shoes? I agree with her choice of going with plain black, but think the outfit would look nicer with a classic pair of Mary Jane's with a modern twist (wedge!) like these Black Wedge Mary Jane's. Plus the wedge is races friendly :)


Let me know what you think!
Grace x

If you enter Fashions on the Field, be prepared to look a gift horse in the mouth!

I thought before judging women that I don't know on what they wear at the races I should learn more about the fashions on the field.

After a quick look at the 2012 Myer Fashions on the Field tab on the Melbourne Cup Carnival website, it explains that at each major race meet in Australia there is a Fashions on the Field competition - that the majority of entrants preregister for - then each state's winner advances to the National Fashions on the Field competition that is held on Crown Oaks Day (Ladies Day in the Melbourne Cup Carnival). There are 20+ conditions of entry which includes 'No Commercial Involvement' meaning entrants must purchase and choose their own outifts and cannot receive any money or goods from a third party for entering. After discovering all these facts it was evident to me that the Fashions on the Field was a big deal and some women (and men) spend months planning their outfits. I then checked out the prize list and discovered why the entrants put in so much effort and adhere to all the conditions - $91k Lexus, $6k Myer shopping spree and a $4k watch amongst many other prizes for the winner!!

Melbourne Cup day Fashions on the Field winner was Lauren Andrews, in the middle of the picture below. What do you think?

Link to picture article

I am surprised that Lauren won, I thought that this year the Melbourne Cup would be full of colourful and contrasting outfits. I also learnt in my reading today that Lauren wore the same outfit on Caulfield Cup day and did not make the final "I figured it was too nice not to wear again, I liked it too much to not give it another go,” she said...." The other two women in the pic are the second and third place winners.

My favourite fascinators for the day are these two:

Let me know what you think about the winner's outfits and the fascinators and please share with me who your best dressed was for the day!

Keen to see the finalists on Ladies Day :)

Silver Lining of a High Heel Death Wobble

I am not going to pretend that I know what 'Gangnam Style' is or claim that I have it, all I know about it is it can be extremely dangerous to have when you are wearing platform stilettos.
A few weeks ago I was watching XFactor when Mel B (Scary Spice) was asked to do the Gangnam Style dance with Psy (the creator of Gangnam Style), check out this video and see what happens to her ankle at 50 seconds http://au.tv.yahoo.com/x-factor/video/-/watch/30876608/epsiode-22-mel-style/

My most recent near fatal death wobble occurred in Melbourne at my cousins wedding. Of course she had a kick ass DJ, and he played Gangnam Style, it was almost like all the guests younger than 35 hit the dance floor and covered it with Gangnam Style even though none of us knew what it was or knew the dance properly. When I heard the tune start to play, I had tonnes of time to kick off my heels but being a classy lady I left them on. On any normal day without the celebratory champas I was consuming I would have known that this was a bad idea...

I proceeded to do the Gangnam Style dance with my stiletto platforms, gathering as much height as a 5ft1 ish tall chick could with each epic pony jump. As I landed one of the said epic pony jumps my right ankle got a death wobble that caused me to fall forward violently!! With help from my pilates instructor (he wasn't there but I used skills learned in the class haha) I managed to catch myself before eating the floorboards whilst adding a splash of interpretative dance, which enabled me to turn my fall from Grace into my own Gangnam Style dance of which one of my cousins began to imitate enthusiastically!! Such a great outcome when seconds before I was inches from death!!!
 
Tell me when have you had a catastrophic death wobble? Was it in front of a live TV audience, on a dancefloor at a wedding or just in front of some local townsfolk at Coles?

"Shoes" what does that mean to you?

For my recent birthday I received this card ---->

Other than making me giggle, it made me think about what my definition of 'Shoes' is. To me shoes are the foundation of what takes us places and gets us moving, not that I am trying to discount any of my or your achievements in life by saying your shoes got you there, but for me the shoes have made the journey all the more fun. Every pair of shoes I own or have worn tell a story. Whether it is a story about;
When I bought them (skanking my way through Europe)
Why I bought them (some jerk broke my heart) 
The event I bought them for (dates, weddings, parties, spraining ankles, new jobs etc)
And I love the fact that the shoes show a timeline on where I was at in that moment of my life ie when I first started my cadetship in the Accounting arena, I wore modest pale pink sling backs with a 2 inch stiletto heel purchased from Kmart for $10 and today I am wearing multicoloured 4 inch stiletto heels from the Guess concept store in Melbourne, price doesn't need to be discussed :P (Please see earlier blog post for a pic). Just a simple reminder of how far I have come and how much I have achieved.
 
Other shoe appreciators out there... what is your definition? Have you ever thought about shoes in the same way I have or am I truly addicted to shoes?

Party Feet - not just for Party Peeps

You are all probably familiar with Scholl's Party Feet http://www.schollpartyfeet.com.au/
The basic premise is to provide various parts of the foot with a comfy cushion bed to ease pain & pressure. I am a regular user of the Party Feet for the ball of the foot.
I spent Saturday night traipsing around the city of Sydney for my sister's hens night and was thankful to have the Party Feet in my sparkly stiletto platforms.

I have been an advocate for Party Feet for some years now, not only for their awesome capability of allowing me to walk home without being super classy & carrying my heels while i stumble home barefoot but they also allow me to shop the sales and buy shoes that are upto 3 sizes too big for me!!! This is definitely something to consider if you have ever found that 'perfect pair' of shoes but you have let them go because they were too big.

You will also be happy to know that you can pickup no name foot gel cushions from many discount stores for a fraction of the price if you wanted to try them out :D

Clip on earings = a must have for any shoe admirer

Many many moons ago, I went to my year 6 end of school disco, which was flower power themed. My wise mother put together an awesome outfit and first introduced me to the exciting concept of using clip on earings as embellishment on shoes! 
I had forgot all about this cheap way to jazz up any shoe until recently when my mum bought some clip ons to jazz up her 'Mother of the Bride' shoes and it reminded me about how good the idea it is.
During my previously mentioned trip to Melbourne I discovered that Rubi Shoes have entered the realm of 'Clip on' beautification, I hope it catches on as it is one of the best ideas ever you essentially get two pairs of shoes for the price of one!!!!!

These are the ones I purchased, do you think they look better with or without the bow? They don't appear to be listed on the Rubi website, but here is the link to the black version http://shop.cottonon.com/shop/product/removeable-bow-heel-black/

 

Melbourne is a shopaholics dream - agreed!

My beautiful cousin had her wedding on the weekend, so I got to spend a fun few days with family in Melbourne.
On my previous visits to the self proclaimed shopping capital of Australia I was less than impressed, I had a failed visit to Bridge Road Richmond http://www.bridgerd.com.au/ (apparently the best shopping strip ever) and then a visit to Harbour Town Docklands http://www.harbourtownmelbourne.com.au/ in torrential rain on a Sunday so not many stores were open. They both left me wondering why Victoria's capital was named a shopping mecca when I didn't think it was and I couldn't figure out why others did!
After the weekend, I really need to retract my previous sentiments, Melbourne shopping is so good, but is it the best?! What do you think? 
Just like me, my sister has a fashion addiction, hers involves dresses. Melbourne has 7 of one of her favourite stores - Forever New and Sydney has a measly 4, this is another basis for my support of Melbourne being an epic shopping destination. 
Despite having a delayed flight on arrival and having a wedding to get ready for, my sister managed to buy tonnes of dresses and I was able to purchase 3 pairs of shoes, my favourite being these Guess heels (that were not available in the recently visited Parramatta Guess store or online from what I can see)

I am looking forward to further shopping adventures in Melbourne and being able to explore the city for all the best places to shop!!
 

Julia Gillard - Just like Cinderlla? You Decide...

I woke up this morning and my BF told me that Julia Gillard (Our Prime Minister) had tripped over and lost her shoe whilst tripping in India. My initial reaction was to laugh, which I always do when someone falls, then I jumped to concern, I have often rolled my ankle in heels and even though Ms Gillard prefers heels of a much more modest height to myself I was still worried she could have hurt herself.


Here is a short and sweet video of her "trip" - http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/julia-gillard-spread-eagled-as-she-fell-after-losing-her-shoe-on-a-visit-to-new-delhi-in-india/story-e6frf7jo-1226497905553


Ms Gillard even lost her shoes, talk about a dramatic tumble. Thankfully she picked herself up quickly, gathered her shoes and composure and continued her tour.



It does give rise to the problems many women face when wearing stiletto heels in grass, especially with the Spring racing carnival in full swing I think all of you that have a planned outing in the grass but still want to look awesome should check these out ----->
http://www.heeltips.com.au/products/accessories/heel-protector-crystal-au.aspx

These products, which are available at many online destinations, will eliminate your high heels cultivating the grass and not only stop you having an embarrassing fall like Ms Gillard (certainly no guarantee if you are crunk & stumbling around!!!) , but also keep your stiletto heel clean!

It is my Birthday, time to shoe up!

Wow, another year has passed and I am now 27. Birthdays are a day for each person to be a little bit selfish for the day and to push the boundaries on your normal day to day monotony - I cannot count the times today that I said "But, It's My Birthday" to get out of doing something I wouldn't ordinarily enjoy doing or to get something I wanted. So so so much fun! :P

Another way I combated the humdrum was shoeing up with a mismatched pair of glitter heels - one pink and one silver. And to top it off I had a matching badge that said "It's My Birthday!"
So easy to wear one shoe from differing pairs (provided they have the same heel height!), such a fun way to brighten up your day and those around you as they will surely crack a smile - hopefully laughing with you of course x

Snake print is here for the long haul

To my utter delight, Snake print shoes appear to be around for the long haul, I bought these babies about 3 years ago, they remind me of a patchwork quilt (which my mum makes heaps of).

Wittner has these awesome snake print platforms on sale for $50.95. Do yourself a favour and check them out, my office neighbour has a pair in aqua and a second pair in white :) ----> http://www.wittner.com.au/sale/heels/atwell-aqua-snake.html

Shoe Crisis! Help!?

So, going out this evening to celebrate being another year older :D

Here is where the crisis begins, being such a shoe fanatic I actually have 5+ shoes that would work with the dress I purchased to wear. I have narrowed it down to 3 pairs and would really love your help in deciding.

Here is the dress - $49.95 from Crossroads http://www.crossroads.com.au/MESH-GLITTER-DRESS.aspx?p4048271&cr=pya3__104713

and here are the shoe options, option 1 has flecks of purple, silver and blue, option 2 black glitter and option 3 silver white glitter.

 
all purchased from Forever New a few years ago, so you won't be able to find them, but here are some hot similar ones ---> http://www.forevernew.com.au/Misty-Diamante-Platform.aspx?p31593&cr=105719

Thanks for your help x

Stilettos turn Hi Vis!

On my return from a recent trip to Fiji, I walked into my office to find the brightest of bright shoes! Another shoe lover and my desk neighbour discovered these -> http://www.pulpshoes.com/product/Notice/?i=41494 they are $49.95 from Pulp and come in 3 crazy bright colours.

I knew instantly that I had to them! 

Finally shoe designers are making shoes Hi Vis to attract attention from everyone, and obviously as well for safety reasons. Also poses the question; does this mean they can be claimed as a tax deduction now as they are now safety shoes? I will speak to the commissioner of taxation and get back to you!
