Baby Shoes

Manolo says, since the Manolo he invented the shoe blog last year, the shoe-blogging it has spread like the wildfire. There is now even the shoe blog about the baby shoes!

Ayyyyy! The Astrid!

Ayyyy!  Astrid Hadad!

Manolo shouts, Ayyyyy! The Astrid Hadad!

The humble name of the Manolo it is not even worthy of appearing in the same sentence with that of. The Astrid Hadad.

She is the genius, the mad, funny, histrionic, blazing, beautiful genius, who is perhaps not looking her best in this picture.

The Greek Goddess

Manolo says, the thumbs-up image of the Donaldus Minimus, it has put the Manolo in the mind of the Classical World, and this, of the course, it means that the Manolo he is thinking of the gilded sandals of the classical inspiration.

Manolo says, these are, from the top, the sandals of the Donald Pliner, Isaac Mizrahi, and the Bruno Magli. And in any of them you would look like the Aphrodite emerging from the sea, or perhaps the Artemis on the hunt.

Shoes For The Girl With The Wide Feets

Manolo says, over the past several weeks the Manolo has received many, many, many letters like the following from his internet friends.

I appreciate your advice for women with the tiny feets, but I have the complete opposite problem.

What about the woman with the wide feet, the big feet, the feet with high arches? What can she do? Is she doomed to terribly unhappy shoes from Hush Puppies or Naturalizer or Easy Spirit?

Manolo says, the wide feets they are indeed the problem for the girls who wish to look super fantastic. However, the Manolo he can make the few recommendations.

If the girl she is possessed of the ordinarily wide feets–the sizes the C, the D, or the W–there are many shoes available at the Zappos that meet the requirements of both the size and the super fantasticness.

For the example this beautiful black boot from the Stuart Weitzman, which the Manolo he has recommended it in the past, it is available in the size W up to the 11.5.

Likewise, this sophisticated pump from the Bruno Magli, which the Manolo he has also recommended it in the past, it too is available in the W up to the size 11. (It is even on the sale, reduced 44% from the original price.)

If you wish to see more of the shoes that are in the wider (or the longer) sizes, the Zappos, they have the search engine that can accomodate this.

Much more difficult to find, however, than the sizes the C, the D, or the W, are the sizes the E, the EE, and the WW. Here the options they are reduced. The search of the Zappos, and the search of the sites specifically for the wide feets, like the DesignerShoes.com, show that the selections they leave much to be desired.

However, there is one brand of the shoe that has the selection in the widest of the wide sizes, these they are the shoes of Magdesian Brothers. These shoes, they are the moderately priced shoes for the big-feeted girls who will not give up completely on the stylishness.

Here are two pairs that are available in the WW up to the size 14, and that the Manolo he could live with.

Magdesians - Anna (Black Peau/Black Patent) - Women's

This shoe, it has the round-toed, retro styling and the chunky heel that are very much of the moment.

Magdesians - Alpha-r (Black Peau)

This simple black mule, it will create the illusion of the more slender foot.

Sadly, most of the other shoes from the Magdesians, they will make you look like the Mrs. Doubtfire.

Manolo says, of the course, the best and most super fantastic of all the solutions to the problems of the too large, and the too small feets is to have the shoes custom made. Nothing compares to this in the terms of the fit and the beauty of the finished product.
