What’s Your Shoe Shape?

So this is yet another random obsessive thought from an obsessive Virgo.. but I’m wondering what the majority of girls out there prefer when it comes to shoe shape. And I’m not talking about just any part of the shoe — I mean the front toe area.. when you’re looking straight down at your shoe that part of the shoe that juts out. This area is the part of your shoe that you’ve got to really like because you see it ALL the time. I mean, everyone gets to see the hot heels and the lovely profiles of your Manolos and Choos but all your really get to see is this nice little stump, other than of course when you are growling at yourself out in the mirror. I’m rather particular about the front part of my shoes. Hmm, what is this part of the shoe called anyway? Need a name… how about Shoe Cap? Toe Stump? If any of you know what this part of the shoe is really called please do indulge me. [AHA! I found it.. I think it’s called the Toe Cap. Check it out: http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~ebernhar/shoevoc.html]. Well at least that’s the closest I could find. Anyway, before I share my Toe Cap preferences I’d like to take a little poll. Will you all pls take my Shoe Shape Survey? This one is centered on boot shape ladies! Get Your Own! See Comments If you don’t see your shoe shape on here share it with us in the comments section! Also, Im trying to understand what each of you like about the shoe shape you chose so please indulge us all with some commentary. My guess is that we all prefer one style for a good reason. Stay tuned!
