Let's Get Some Shoes

Well happy readers, it is time to once again reveal this week’s theme. Our pictures this week were of shoes. It is a very general theme with no guidelines. Therefore, you can imagine the types of pictures that popped up. To start, there are a bunch of different kinds of shoes. There are sneakers, heels, flats, wedges, dance shoes, skate shoes, kid’s shoes, women’s shoes, men’s shoes, clown shoes, boots, slippers, slip on shoes, open toed, etc. There is also art, pictures in different settings, shoes made of different materials, and so on. The opportunities were endless. As many of our past themes, there isn’t much to be said about shoes. They are something that we wear everyday but don’t think much about. Interestingly enough, people pay a great deal of money for shoes sometimes. I recently looked into the designer Christian Louboutin. His shoes are known for their red soles and are worn by many celebrities. After looking on his website I learned that the shoes average about $1000. Me personally, I pay $20-$30 at Payless or Famous Footwear. Yet being female, I do have a great love of shoes. I skim websites, peer in windows, and wander the aisles of DSW looking at all the pretty shoes. Yet it boggles my mind that people pay so much for something that comes between them and the ground. Of course I understand that shoes accent different outfits and create various styles and looks. Also, high heels are said to accentuate a woman’s legs and butt. These things still don’t seem reason enough to spend so much money on them. And yet, people do it every day. So on that note, I will share with you some of the more interesting or cute pictures that I found of shoes this week. Enjoy, and check back to see what the secondary theme was.
