HEEL SHIELDs - STOP BLACK HEEL!

Are heel sores a problem for your patients?

2010-06-13T10:35:00.000-07:00

A friend had a family member suffering from heel sores. He mentioned to me that he thought Heel Shields might help heal and even prevent heel sores. After listening to his account, I have tried sleeping in and wearing heel shields for hours at a time. I have found that the heel shields are comfortable enough to wear for several hours at a time (last time I wore this one for six hours). As

Cutouts shoes can be really hot!

2010-06-12T20:00:00.000-07:00

Everywhere you look there are cutouts. Cut out shoes, cut out jeans, cut out dress, cut out tops. Why do we all love cutouts so so much. Men love them because they provide just enough skin to keep the imagination working. Women love them because they keep the men looking. And, we love them because they look so good. So, we continue to get new cut out tops, dresses, jeans and SHOES!

FAVORITE Shoes for 2009 and some boots

2010-01-26T21:21:00.000-08:00

Shoe Designers have taken shoes to a level that I think was unexpected. and, 2009 was the year for Shoes. Sex and the City may have had something to do with kicking off the shoe craze. Prior to Sex and the City I was a Stuart Weitzman devotee and satisfied. Then Manolo Blahnik burst on the scene – AND Jimmy Choo became a household name. Christian Louboutin has taken it to another level.

Is Christian Louboutin really doing a ‘men’s shoe line?’

2010-01-02T01:42:00.000-08:00

I couldn’t believe that my brother hadn’t heard of Christian Louboutin. So when I mentioned Christian Louboutin to him, he went online and found a video about him on the Neiman Marcus website. In that video Christian Louboutin is recorded saying he had no plans to design a men’s line – his focus was on women’s shoes. So is it true that Christian Louboutin is now actually doing a men’s shoe

Sarah Jessica Parker – THE SHOE GAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2009-12-22T16:02:00.000-08:00

Today I watched a rerun of a Bravo Show “Watch What Happens Live” because SJP (Sarah Jessica Parker) was the guest. SJP is quite a lady. In the one hour program SJP never said a negative word about anything. SJP knows how to put a good spin on everything. I was TOTALLY IMPRESSED! In fact, I am now a bigger SJP Fan. SJP (Sarah Jessica Parker) had on a cute little black dress and black

Whoopi in Christian Louboutin’s

2009-12-10T22:02:00.001-08:00

Whoopi spent the weekend in England doing stuff with the Queen. And she mentioned that in her performance she wore Christian Louboutins! Yes, that makes me happy – every woman should own a pair of CL’s at some time in her life (I am still working on my first pair). Funny on the day that Whoopi mentions wearing CL’s, Elizabeth was wearing her favorite shoes – the beige jeweled peep toe pumps

Hanging with Steve Harvey

2009-12-03T21:46:00.000-08:00

I was the lucky winner of two tickets to a recent Steve Harvey Morning Show at KMart. I had no idea what to expect, especially since I hadn’t had the opportunity to hear his show before arriving. Watching the morning show team in action was quite fascinating and Steve is even funny at 5:00 am. I have to admit I went to the show to get a chance to show Steve the Heel Shield. Steve is

Whoopi in a Wedge Boot/Elizabeth in a rerun!

2009-11-27T19:39:00.000-08:00

I got a chance to look at the view recently. And the shoes on the show were good. Whoopi had on a black wedge. I love it when Whoopi wears a nice shoe. Barbara and Joy had on sensible (not my descriptive word – borrowing from the industry) black pumps. In fact, this seems to be their footwear of choice these days. Sherrie had on knee-high black boot. Carrie Prejean wore a tan hidden

A new form of Athlete’s Foot

2009-10-30T23:04:00.000-07:00

I have to admit that I am suffering from a new form of Athlete’s Foot. This is a form of Athlete’s Foot that only affects women. How is that possible you ask? Men can’t get this too? Well, they do, but considering how men’s feet tend to look, this isn’t an issue for them. However, take a close look at this celebrity foot, she to suffers from this Athlete Foot. Look closely and you can

CUTE CROCS

2009-10-21T12:00:00.000-07:00

Now that is something that I would never have expected that I would say – or even think! Today, I saw a pair of cute Crocs. They were green and looked adorable. I have to admit the size of the Crocs had a lot to do with their ‘cuteness.’ A cute little toddler girl had on green Crocs with a face built into the shoe. Both the shoes and the toddler were adorable! I realize that there are a lot

Shoes at the Chgo Football Classic

2009-09-30T20:00:00.000-07:00

The Football Classic is a Chicago Classic. Most of the party is in the hallways of the Suites and in the Parking Lot. The battle of the bands gets the most fan attention. And lots of people come out. There are so many people to reacquaint with and new people to meet, that sometimes I forgot to take pictures. These are the first shoes and the last shoes of the day. The men in

Thanks to the Barefoot Drivers!

2009-09-21T16:06:00.000-07:00

I just wanted to say “Thank You” to all of the Barefoot Drivers. No, I am not happy that you are not a customer. A Heel Shield is a much better option than driving barefoot – keeps the inside and outside of the shoe clean. And, barefoot drivers probably don’t realize that along with the dirt from their car mats (that is going into the ‘shoes they are trying to save’) are thousands of

The Cobbler and The Heel Shield

2009-09-12T22:03:00.000-07:00

I stopped by my cobbler’s shop today with my Magic Marketing Master to see if he could coerce The Cobbler into starring in a video about Heel Shields. Prior to stopping by, my cobber was unaware of my product and probably didn’t remember me either (but that is another story). Anyway MMM (Magic Marketing Master) asked the cobbler about repairing the shoe having BLACK HEEL (the damage

Uggs – Bet you didn’t know

2009-08-18T20:23:00.000-07:00

Ladies, I bet you didn’t know (American Ladies that is) that Uggs were created for “after surfing.” Uggs are not a WINTER boot after all! Uggs are for use all year long. Stop laughing, that is one of the myths that Whooga Boots wants to clear up. Uggs are not for SNOW! In fact, my take on what I read is - Uggs are just tall house shoes. (I personally will be getting a new pair just for

THE BOOT for Fall - OTK

2009-08-10T19:34:00.000-07:00

This fall, the hot boot for the season will be the Over-The-Knee boot. Christian Louboutin and Prada have created some “to die for” (can I still use that phrase) boots for this season. And the Style war rages! PRADA Christian Louboutin As you can see, the days of “swash buckling” OTK boots is gone. We no longer have to look like pirates. Even though I have seen a few boots that look back

Heel Shields SAVE Joan Rivers’ Chanel's!

2009-08-06T22:53:00.000-07:00

On my last trip back from Chicago to Phoenix, I was in the rear of the plane. As I stepped into the terminal, I saw a woman, a man and a little girl standing by the door. I looked – the woman looked like Joan Rivers. Well, I had to stop and see if it really was Joan Rivers – IT WAS! I have to tell you SHE LOOKS GOOD! So, I spoke to her, let her know that my sister and I had watched her

If the shoe doesn’t fit – PLEASE don’t wear it!

2009-07-30T22:50:00.000-07:00

When I was little, when you went to the shoe store the salesman had a metal device with sliding ends he used to measure your feet. As an adult, I don’t see very many of the measuring devices. I wonder are these measuring devices extinct? I ask this question because of the number of women I see wearing shoes that are either too big or too small. Either is not good for your feet. Your feet

100% SCUFF FREE GUARANTEE

2009-07-03T21:32:00.000-07:00

Unfortunately I don't think we have ever published our 100% Scuff Free Guarantee. Well, here is how it works. If you purchase a Heel Shield and it does not protect the heel of your footwear (the part of the heel that rests on your car mats when you drive) from the scuffing, staining and other driving damage, then your money will be refunded. NO question, NO reasons required. Just return your Heel

Chicago TV Debut

2009-05-25T22:20:00.000-07:00

Got to the TV Station a half-hour earlier than the hour early requested. Really excited about the appearance - 3 minutes to talk about Heel Shields to a large TV audience - GREAT!The Green Room was already full of people and their products. Everyone was really friendly and sharing information.The Intern (Anne) talked about how the selection of the six finalists for the show were chosen - I missed

She did it Again - Whoopi wore heels

2009-05-21T16:24:00.000-07:00

It is amazing. I haven't watched the view since the few weeks after the election. So, it was really a surprise to see that Whoopi wore heels again. I don't know if anyone else cares, but I love shoes and some of the shoes she wears are hard to look at for any length of time. So, it is really good when she wears a pair of shoes that are easy on the eyes! So I say - Good Going Whoopi!

Being on TV

2009-05-15T18:13:00.000-07:00

I was lucky enough to have an invitation to appear on TV in Phoenix on the Sonoran Living Live TV Show. The Segment was an opportunity for me to showcase Heel Shields to the Phoenix Community. But I didn't write about it any where - so many people probably missed the segment. Well I have been BLESSED again with an opportunity to appear on TV -this time in Chicago. Janet Davies is hosting a
