I recently read an interview from the famous Manolo Blahnik, king of the “Sex and the City” shoes among others. He has been an icon in the shoe industry long before Jimmy Choo, or Christian Louboutin, (though if you never heard of these guys, no surprise as the shoes cost a small fortune)

In this interview, Mr. Blahnik states that “Flats make women walk like reindeer” Now I realize the man knows shoes, however I have a question for Mr. Blahnik; have you ever wore high heals and if so, how do your feet feel?

I used to love wearing heels, that is until I ended up having bunion surgery. My podiatrist blames those same high heel shoes (along with my flat feet) so now a year later, I swear by flats.

I have a friend who has had two bunion surgeries yet still insists on wearing stilettos! She loves the look the heals give her legs and I can understand that but for me, I have to sacrifice style for comfort.

So I appeal to Mr. Blahnik to make shoes that are comfortable and wearable no matter what the circumstances. Please make a sexy flat shoe that does not make us walk like reindeer!
