FG: Who is the designer of your shoes and where did you purchase them?

CT: These shoes are Roberto Vianni. I have a lot of Vianni’s. I shop at Spring and Sterling shoes a lot. I’m Canadian, so I’m not sure if you have those stores in the States. Everytime I walk into either store, the shoes I’m immediately drawn to are Vianni. I’ve come to accept that as soon as I look at the sole his name will be there. I still giggle, though. I never thought I’d be so designer loyal!
FG: Why did you purchase them?

CT: I’m 6 feet tall and yet I LOVE heels and have no problem wearing them. Thankfully my 5’10 boyfriend isn’t bothered either! These particular shoes, I simply fell in love with. Sometimes it’s just a love affair and nothing else. I pretty progressive when I went to Fashion Week later that year and most of the models were wearing similar style shoes.
