Vogue Essentials Heels
'You can never take too much care over the choice of your shoes. Too many women think that they are unimportant, but the but the real proof of an elegant woman is what is on her feet.' - Christian Dior
There is an indefinable magic, mystique and fascination about high-heeled shoes that defies all understanding or logic. How can you explain that the simple act of pointing your toes and gently slipping them into a pair of towering heels can be such a powerful experience physically, psychologically and emotionally? As British Vogue has charted over the last hundred years, by stepping into a pair of heels, a woman's personality is instantly transformed.
Divided into the categories of Fancy Footwork, Enduring Classics, Step Up and Rainbow Heels, British Vogue's archive of fashion photos has been plundered to showcase the most beautiful, memorable, rule-breaking and trend-setting heels to be photographed in its 100-year history.

I love shoes, and when I say I love them, I mean all shoes, I don't just mean heels and designers, I mean all shoes. As a human being and a woman, I think the perfect shoes is for the perfect moment. This book has many beautiful designs and has many amazing information about the "shoes" that effected the times when they first appeared. I liked it but the book felt like it needed something extra.
