Do shoes make the person?

Ponder that... Shoes add that necessary finishing touch to an outfit. There has been some amazing designs this past year... most notably from the Olsen twins' shoe line. Here are some pairs that I couldn't resist posting from their Elizabeth and James line:


I love the ostrich detail covering the toe area.


These T-strap heels would be very practical if they were 2 inches shorter.


I admire the aesthetic look of these oxford flats.


I have a little crush for Kate Spade shoes. They're so simple and versatile, yet they manage to add the right amount of zest to any outfit.


These pink heels are from J.Crew. The contrast between the suede and patent leather is the perfect combination for someone who wants it all in just one pair!

So do you think shoes make the person?
