Winner of the Fave Shoes Photo Competition!

Congratulations to Kelly Red and her pretty Pradas…

(click photo for maximum footwear fabulosity)

Kelly says, “I saw these shoes and fell in love, I think they are the most beautiful shoes I've ever seen: Prada Obi mule, circa 2001. I came home and told my husband about them, but they were too expensive. 3 days later he comes home with a present and inside were the shoes! I say thank you thank you, but I don't really live the lifestyle to justify wearing these shoes! He says, wear them just for me. So there you go, beautiful shoes that have never gone public, but they have gone to a party! :D”

Kelly, you win a copy of “My Favorite Shoes: True Stories from Around the World”…

What they’re saying about Kelly Red’s shoes…

But then I scrolled further and discovered the couture-like obi-ness of Kelly Red's heels. I gasped, clutched at my pearls and fainted dead-away. She's got my first prize vote!

And congratulations to AyeM8y, Mitzi and Mago who all TIED for First Runner-Up:

AYEM8Y:

I bought these 60's silver glitter pumps with a Lucite heel way back in 1983. And I can still fit into them. I like to wear them with my sarong for special occasions like pool parties, personal appearances, backyard barbecues, operas, orgies, weddings and graduations.

MAGO:

Nice colourful footwear. Made more than thirty years ago by my mother, using remains of a jeans I wore in school once. And of course inked them. Actually these are socks. The soles were made from strong ropes, knotted or tied in a kind of frame. On this the jeans textile stuff was put. Into this was put in a knitted sock patted with wooly stuff. These kind of socks were used by children, sometimes grown ups too, in wooden shoes. Or, if the sole was made from straw and thus stronger, larger and higher, they were worn outside the house. The small sole from rope is good for inside the house. A bit like espadrillas, Franconian edition. I should get rid of them, but still can't.

A huge thank you to EVERYONE who participated in our Fave Shoes Photo Competition.

You’re ALL fabulous!
