Finding High Heel Treasure
I hadn’t posted to this blog for a long time. I thought, “What’s the best way to find some material on high heels?” Google! But this time, instead of the usual basic searching of the web, I hit the “Search Froogle” button (in my not-updated toolbar). Surprisingly, it still worked, although Google calls this “Products” now. At first the results puzzled me. I changed the keywords to “high heel shoes” for better returns. Then I changed the sort from “relevance” to “price: low to high”. Then the results got humorous as the search engine pulls in items from eBay!
You can buy an “Unfinish Wood Shape Cut Out” — always useful! Little charms and pins are cute. How about purple rubber erasers in the shape of shoes? Puzzling is the “High Heel Shoes Print Fat 1/8th” bolt of material. Then there are the songs — and we’re still under a dollar: “One Red High Heel Shoe” by Jim Lahman; “High Heeled Shoes” by Philip J. Kearns, openly gay singer-songwriter, also by Nevile, the Fintons; just plain “High Heel Shoes” by Jay and by Suzanne & Kelly, and “High Heel Gym Shoes” by Jeff Fidler. Oy! Enough! A few real shoes make an appearance, still under $1.00. At a dollar, images and photos begin to appear. Finally more shoes from eBay show up. Who knew you could be fashionable and so cheap?
Then I tried reversing the sort, looking for the highest priced numbers. As you might expect, boots topped the list with two on eBay, starting at $1,599 for a Chanel black boot with silver heel. Neiman Marcus came in third with an Italian Dahlia black platform priced at $1,595 and a similar Bonnie brand for $1,390. Whew! Glad I live on the SoCal coast where the snow seldom visits. 
Like my own black boots?

Nice blog but it’s time to speak about high hels for men.
Those black boots are gorgeous! Probably not for snow…
