Had plenty of incidents where the universal question pop.
“Just what is it with girls and their Stiletto?”

It provoked me very badly cos I love my stiletto, not as in the shoe, but rather the whole body language when I wear it out.
2 and 1/2 inch killed me, but I’m floating on my 3 inch.

To me its a social etiquette thing, slippers and flats are casual, like you wear them at home or to the market.

When I go out for social events, go out and face the world, I wanna present myself well. I want people to know that I appreciate being invited there. I am bothered about my presence.

Its just me really. Not saying it is not right to wear sensible heels. To each its own.

So I went to the library to look it up, is it really just a social etiquette thing after all?

😀 Turns out, nope. 🙂 Those killer heels went a long way back.

Started to change the impression of a country, to move her out of the Second World War shadows.

Continued as the image of feminism changes.

Became a tool that speaks more than just whats below.

🙂 I extracted some parts of the book and put them in the Stiletto page.
If you are keen, do read it with a pinch of salt, as it is only from 1 book, doesnt represent Stiletto as a whole. 🙂

I like this extract:
“The stiletto is a feminine weapon that men don’t have, but women come into the shop and they complain. They say “I can’t walk, I can’t run in these shoes!’ I say ‘Why run? In the reality of life, nobody’s running… If you walk in a certain rhythm you can watch the city, see the buildings, you see more of the landscape – and it permits men to stop you – otherwise you cross life without seeing it.” (pps. 160)
