shoe feng shui

This girl is a maniac for shoes and who isn't? I loved this lil book and it's going in the stockings for all my gals (mom and her sneaks, sis in her stillettos and the nieces in their flips) for the holidays. And maybe for my women's feet obscessed guy-friends too. Some of them need a primer. I read all their girlfriends by their shoes before they get a clue-ya know? OK Miss Meghan. Women have been reading men's shoes since gladiator sandals hit the scene- when's the men's primer coming along???

Hilarious, and so true!

I got this book for fun, and it was, but actually I learned a lot about myself and how I show my true nature by the shoes I choose to wear. It's a great gift book for a girl deciding what kind of woman she wants to become.

refuge for a cool spring day

When its snowing in New York City (or still chilly at the end of April!), Miss Meghan conjurs up delightful images of classic leather thong sandals to whisk me away to another realm where shoes reign supreme. Or was it a pointy toe skimmer? I can't recall. What I can tell you is that this is a fun fun fun read and the absolute perfect gift for your girlfriends (we all know a few shoemongers!).

The Perfect Fit? You Bet

Down deep inside we all want someone to ooooooooh over that special pair of shoes we love so much. Miss Megan reveals why if feels so good. She tells us that there is more to shoes then meets the ground. The oooohing is about us, a reaction to the personalitiy we choose to slip on that morning. The book is great fun and a great gift. Thank you Miss Megan, I'm off to put on my favorite pair of leather-soled, black-satin heals and listen to all the people tell me how wow and sexy I am.

a must have for the modern woman

This is such a cute and sassy little book that I love to share with my girlfriends... The author does such a good job of capturing the mood of a woman as suggested by (that increasingly important decision) the shoe she chooses that day. I bought five to give out as gifts to my favorite ladies...
