STYLOG with MADAMCHINO: ANKLES!

I'm way into shoes. They are the only thing i thought i could never make as far as clothing goes, so i started collecting millions since a young age. i have way more shoes than i need, and i have the most messed up feet in the world from years of service industry destruction. thanks for the tips folks, but it may not cover surgery. i ended up with faacitis or whatever you call it, and am doomed to step lightly for ever after.

they said shoes make the outfit, they said walk a mile in his shoes and you'd understand. well, if i walk a mile in some of these shoes, folks, it would ultimately kill. so anyway, i'm working on a funny book now about tons of things you can do with scarves. These things relate, i promise.

the most painful shoes are the ones that don't give any ankle support, including flip floppy shoes that slip off and make you curl your toes while you walk in order to keep them on, and high heels for obvious teetering reasons.

i gotta get pictures together, but basically, you weave a silky comfortable scarf through the side thongs of the flip floppy shoes, behind the ankle, and criss cross up, tying in a knot or bow around the ankle. This can be done for heels by pulling the scarf up between the sole and the spike, strapping that sucker onto your ankle with crisscross and tie motions. sexxxy, sweet, supportive, what more could you ask for in a man, i mean, shoe.
