Fabulous Platform Shoes

“You can imagine me as a kid growing up in redneck Texas with ballet shoes, tucking the violin under my arm. I had to fight my way up.”

“It fills me with a weird rage to wear shoes that make me not able to walk easily or run if I had to. It feeds into this whole ‘war on women’ thing in my head.”

“I think I have something tonight that’s not quite correct for evening wear. Blue suede shoes.”

“I’m going to erect a shelf in my bedroom with an art light to be the spot for the shoes of the month.”

“For me that’s one of the great indulgences in life – a hand-tailored suit and a great pair of shoes.”

“Shoes must have very high heels and platforms to put women’s beauty on a pedestal.”

“It was very flattering when Manolo Blahnik named a shoe after me.”

“I have tennis shoes with little rhinestones that I slip on if I exercise. But I always wear heels, even around the house. I’m such a short little thing, I can’t reach my kitchen cabinets.”

“When people wear shoes that don’t fit them, it says something about their soul. Generally, I think it means they are good people.”
