Sarah Jessica Parker – THE SHOE GAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I watched a rerun of a Bravo Show “Watch What Happens Live”  because SJP (Sarah Jessica Parker) was the guest.  SJP pic SJP is quite a lady.  In the one hour program  SJP never said a negative word about anything.  SJP knows how to put a good spin on everything.  I was TOTALLY IMPRESSED!  In fact, I am now a bigger SJP Fan. 

SJP (Sarah Jessica Parker)  had on a cute little black dress and black rhinestone pantyhose and  Red Charlotte Olympia Shoes.  She looked great.  I really want a pair of the hose she was wearing.  (I have seen similar hose in the past and I an happy they are in style this season – a great look for New Year’s Eve. )

Well, I searched for an hour on the internet and was unable to find a picture of the Fogal Rhinestone Hosiery online.  Hopefully, the expensive hosiery store at the Water Tower Shopping Center in Chicago is still there and carrying this hosiery.

I was also unable to find the Charlotte Olympia shoes that SJP wore, but here is a cute pair that I found and really like.  Charlotte Olympia

I can’t believe I can’t find the rhinestone hosiery or a picture of Sarah Jessica Parker in the hosiery.  Oh Well!  

Wish I could get a Heel Shield to SJP to get her opinion of the product.  Since Sarah Jessica Parker is “TheShoeGal” I would love to know what she thinks about our nifty little shoe care product.

Shoes at the Chgo Football Classic

The Football Classic is a Chicago Classic.  Most of the party is in the hallways of the Suites and in the Parking Lot.  The battle of the bands gets the most fan attention.  And lots of people come out.  There are so many people to reacquaint with and new people to meet, that sometimes I forgot to take pictures.  HPIM0393  HPIM0417

These are the first shoes and the last shoes of the day.

The men in Chicago also pride themselves on having really stylish shoes!  The slacks were also something to see, but we were really only shooting pictures of shoes.  Except for the black leather/vinyl leggings! (She looked Great!)

The shoes ran the gamut – flats, sandals, boots, shooties, sequined heels, and of course  pumps!

The following shoes are my favorites from the day.  Now understand, all of the shoes I photographed stood out on their own. 

So, thanks and congratulations to all of the Shoe Aficionados.  Sorry about the picture of the man’s shoe, the toe of the shoes had a nice angle.  Which one is your favorite.  Feel Free to leave a comment voting for your favorite!!!!.    HPIM0397HPIM0422HPIM0402

Thanks to the Barefoot Drivers!

I just wanted to say “Thank You” to all of the Barefoot Drivers.  No, I am not happy that you are not a customer.  A Heel Shield is a much better option than driving barefoot – keeps the inside and outside of the shoe clean. 

And, barefoot drivers probably don’t realize that along with the dirt from their car mats (that is going into the ‘shoes they are trying to save’) are thousands  of bacteria.  And, we all know what bacteria does in dark damp places! 

I realize that  for years you have tried all sorts of things to protect the outside of your shoe, (towels and special mats) – but Heel Shields weren’t invented yet.  So you settled on barefoot driving.  I am sorry that the inside of your shoes may have an odor and the inside not look so good.  I am sorry it took so long to get Heel Shields on the market.  But I thank you for validating the need for Heel Shields by taking off your shoes to PROTECT YOUR SHOE INVESTMENT!

The Cobbler and The Heel Shield

I stopped by my cobbler’s  shop today with my Magic Marketing Master to see if he  could coerce The Cobbler into starring in a video about Heel Shields

Prior to stopping by, my cobber was unaware of my product and probably didn’t remember me either (but that is another story).

Anyway MMM (Magic Marketing Master) asked the cobbler  about repairing the shoe having BLACK HEEL (the damage to the rear of the shoe caused by UNPROTECTED driving).  The Cobbler stated: “we can clean them but the place where the leather is damaged – CAN’T BE REPAIRED.  

The Cobbler went on to tell us about how in the past he carried items that were placed on the car mats – but he eventually stopped carrying them – BECAUSE – they didn’t work. 

The Cobbler was quite skeptical about the Heel Shield at first.  SOOOO, I showed him how the Heel Shield would fit on the damaged shoe.  THEN, I put the same Heel Shield on the boot of the MMM and back on the ladies high heel.  HE WAS SOLD!

The Cobbler placed an order on the spot!  Still we couldn’t get The Cobbler to do the video – OH WELL!

Chicago TV Debut

Got to the TV Station a half-hour earlier than the hour early requested. Really excited about the appearance - 3 minutes to talk about Heel Shields to a large TV audience - GREAT!

The Green Room was already full of people and their products. Everyone was really friendly and sharing information.

The Intern (Anne) talked about how the selection of the six finalists for the show were chosen - I missed it. I was working on getting organized. However, I did hear the part about the original grouping was over 100 Inventors and Entrepreneurs.

So, to be one of the six was quite an accomplishment in itself. Some of the finalists were calling the station about segments and others were sending email - I am not sure how I was chosen, but I am happy I was.

Here is the URL for the show - hope you watch! http://tiny.cc/HeelShieldsABCTV
