Somehow managing to avoid sounding creepy (just), Roland Mouret explains to The Telegraph: “Sometimes I observe the tender attentions that women lavish upon their shoes — I have seen quite a few who display their favorites like you would display works of art, or maybe trophies — and I suspect that for them each pair represents a lover that she has never taken. I hope so. Because the best shoes can improve your life and your love without complicating it, and they should never disappoint you. Which is better than a lover, non?” So stay faithful; buy more heels.
