Want a Wedgie?

I'm passionate about creating a product that women really want...
infusing great style, comfort and unparalleled value, for every stage of her life.
Vince Camuto

I finally broke in my new Vince Camuto Zisson wedgies (I mean wedges) this weekend. They're perfect for August: when the weather is out of control, but you don't want to make a purchase you can't take into September. Once I got these bad boys home and onto my purdy little feet, I couldn't help but notice the inspirational quote on the box from Vince Camuto himself.

I love discovering fashion designers are more real than I thought (case in point, Forever 21 bags have John 3:16 quoted on the bottom, thanks to founders Don-Won Chang and his wife, Jin Sook). My curiosity prompted me to find out more about Mr. Camuto. Not only did he co-found Nine West in 1978, he also partnered with Tory Burch to launch her shoe collection in 2006. The "Reva" ballet flat was part of his collaboration. You know the ones with the huge, massive T centerpiece, covering the feet of American girls left and right. Smarty pants.
