OK, now I’m pissed! No actually I am furious! Why did they take all the credit? Can you please explain this? It’s not like we are talking about some local fashion designer from Micronezia or Islamabad. We are talking about
Jimmy Choo,
Gucci, D&G and other world famous top designers.

I have an 82 year old grandma. When my Mom and her brothers were younger, they didn’t have much money and my grandma couldn’t afford to purchase shoes each and every season for all her kids. So, you ask, what did she do? It was a very simple solution that took 5 minutes and a nice sharp pair of scissors. Once the shoes were too small on her kids ever growing feet, my grandma used to chop the front of the shoes leaving the toes exposed. Does any of this sound familiar??????

50 years later
Jimmy Choo will call it “peek-a-boo boots”. All the top models will own a pair (or two) and the catwalks will be overflowing this trendy look, which was all too familiar to my family decades ago. Since I can’t show you my mom’s peek-a-boo shoes, I will show you some current designs made by top names in fashion today!!!

Now you can decide if it’s
Jimmy Choo or
Gracia Illouz’s idea. I know the answer and I expect my smart and wise readers to be on my side here. By the way, if Mr. Choo is reading this, feel free to send me and my granny some compensation to make our feet sing…
See you next time with a special New Years Eve post…
