God Save My Shoes

I first felt the power of shoes when I was about 7 years old, while getting ready for birthday parties, school recitals, and other special occasions. 

When I was 13 Carrie Bradshaw introduced me to iconic names such as Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik.

As the years passed by I could never understand how a new pair of shoes can elevate my mood into a new stratosphere of joy, or why despite a closet that literally overflows with stilettos, wedges, boots, and sandals I can never seem to get my fill.  I just knew that deep down, a shoe was more than, well a shoe.

Then I was introduced to the up-coming documentary film God Save My Shoes, which explores the relationship women have with their shoes.  During its quest the film journeys through fashionably fabulous cities such as: New York, Paris, Los Angeles, and Milan-stopping at locations such as Vogue Magazine's shoe closet, the International Shoe Museum, and interviewing designers Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blanik no less!

The film's world premiere will be held in NYC's Paris Theatre on September 7th, just in time for Fashion Week!  Safe to say that you will see me strutting to the nearest theatre for a viewing, best shoe forward of course!
