Wow, it's been exactly two months since my last post. Working 6 days a week'll do that to you, eh?
I hadn't been shopping in ages... and when that happens, I make for shoes.com, probably the best shoe site I know of for now. It has amazing choice and the most beautiful pictures, like many other websites, but the thing that makes it stand out for me is the description provided for each and every pair of shoes it sells. Nowhere else have I found such detailed narrative, and let me tell you, reading them is like porn for me. I could spend hours trolling the site, reading and savouring every word. Vamp, peep-toe, ruched, patent leather, satin, crushed velvet, column-style heel,... oh, shoe jargon! Unlike every other site I've been to, here, each gorgeous, evocative paragraph actually does justice to the shoe it is describing.
I don't know why, but I can somehow understand everything I read on shoes.com even though I had no idea of the different parts of the shoe before discovering this site. My heartrate kicks up reading the stuff here, I shit you not.
Take, for example, their description of Betsey Johnson's Warwick shoes in red:
Satisfy your craving for perfect fashion zen with these gorgeous Asian inspired
Betsy Johnson Warwick heels. Printed brocade fabric upper with round peep toe,
contouring heel with geometric scalloped cutout detail and metallic front ankle
wrap strap with adjustable metal buckle, open sided vamp and ruched brocade
instep overlays with triple center knot detailing. Cushioned metallic logo
footbed, smooth patterned logo outsole, 4 inch metallic wrapped stiletto wedge
heel.
Gaaaahhhhhhhh.

Like I said. PORN.
