Celebrate!
By Manolo the Shoeblogger
Manolo says, today it is the day of festivities, and what better way to celebrate than with the most exuberant and festive shoes the Manolo can find, in this case, the wild and beautiful buckle mules from the Masestro Manolo Blahnik.

My cousin, she has long been the fan of the Maestro Manolo. But sadly she has concluded that since he produces so many more shoes now, the quality of the workmanship has indeed slipped.
She remarked this when her shoe put a run in her Fogal! She made me feel with my finger the spot inside the shoe where there was a rough bit of stitching. She then pulled out more than two dozen Blahniks dating back two decades, and we compared.
Sadly, she is right.

Beloved Manolo,
These are indeed lovely shoes, but alas, I am unable to wear high heels. Can you advise me as to some shoes that are just as flamboyantly gorgeous but which have lower heels?
Yours ever, Kiwi

They remind me of the pair I saw that actually had M&Ms glued to them.
Yikes. Imagine walking down Broadway in NYC in June in shoes that melt in your mouth, in your hand, and in sunlight.
