Whoopi in a Wedge Boot/Elizabeth in a rerun!

I got a chance to look at the view recently.  And the shoes on the show were good.  Whoopi had on a black wedge.  I love it when Whoopi wears a nice shoe.  Barbara and Joy had on sensible (not my descriptive word – borrowing from the industry) black pumps.  In fact, this seems to be their footwear of choice these days. 

Sherrie had on knee-high black boot.  Carrie Prejean wore a tan hidden platform with a 4-5 inch heel – really nice like Sherrie’s.   And, Laurence Fishburne wore a boot with  brass toes and flower patterned jeans.  I don’t usually find Laurence to be sexy, but he was hitting on all points today. 

And Elizabeth AGAIN wore a jeweled tan peep toe.  I think she really likes this shoe since I know I she has worn it before.  Now I am going to have to see the shoes every day to see how many times she wears them this season.

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.   

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!!!!.   

Heel Shields created to STOP BLACK HEEL

Heel Shields were created to solve a very real problem. Over time, driving will damage the back right heel of the driver's shoe - causing BLACK HEEL. BLACK HEEL the condition caused by UNPROTECTED DRIVING!

In fact, driving a manual transmission can cause the driver to have BLACK HEEL on both shoes.

Several years ago I purchased a red and yellow pair of Stuart Weitzman designer shoes. I wore and drove my car with the red pair of shoes many times - NO PROBLEM!

Then, one day, I was all dressed in and my Beautiful New yellow Stuart Weitzman's Shoes (first wearing). When I arrived, as I was walking to the function from my car someone stopped me to ask, "What is that on the back of your shoe?" To my horror when I looked the back of my shoe was black and all of the yellow leather finish was gone from the shoe. I LOVED this shoe (remember bought two pair)!

So, I tried to have the shoe repaired. I took them to the BEST shoe repair shop in Chicago. No luck. Had the shoe dyed many times - each time you could still see the scarred part- now it was just a weird, bumpy yellowish color. Thanks to this yellow shoe, I created The Heel Shield. (http://www.theheelshield.com/)

Now no one has to suffer with BLACK HEEL anymore. I did some research and found that people have tried to create a solution to this very real problem for years. Driving shoes were also created to solve this problem.

The problem with the other solutions is they really don't solve the problem or allow the driver to wear shoes that match their outfit. Driving shoes work, however, special driving shoes are expensive, the driver must change shoes or wear the same driving shoes all the time. Changing shoes to drive is inconvenient - especially when the shoes have buckles or straps or when wearing boots.

If the choice is to use Speciality Car Mats, as soon as the car mats become wet or get older, the preventative mats cause the same problem as regular car mats - scuffing the shoe. The Heel Shield is UNISEX - one size fits mens and womens shoes and boots. It is easy to use - SLIPS easily ON the shoe in the car and easily SLIPS off prior to exiting the car. Heel Shields also protect car mats from holes - drivers are able to rest their foot on the car mat - saves the mats and makes for a more comfortable drive.
