On the way back from a recent trip to New York City, I waited at LaGuardia for my flight home to Atlanta next to a woman wearing the Burberry Platform Biker Boots that I love so much. After I forced myself to stop staring at her in unmitigated shoe-envy and restrained myself from tapping her on the shoulder to talk about her boots, I remembered that I was sitting in an airport, waiting to board a plane to yet another airport, one which is so big that I’ve nearly missed flights out of Atlanta because it takes so long to hoof it from security to your freaking gate, which is always the last one on the concourse, always. Wearing heels in that situation struck me as brave, to say the least.
And then I looked down at my own feet, shod in Havaianas flip flops for convenience and ease of security screening, and I wondered if maybe I was the crazy person after all. And then last week, watching four cast members of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills hike through LAX atop towering platform stilettos made me wonder – what shoes do tried-and-true shoe lovers wear to travel? A chic flat? Anything that can be taken on and off easily? Or do you go all-out and wear whatever shoe strikes you as the most fabulous in your collection that day? This Burberry boot, of course, can be purchased for $1095 via Neiman Marcus.
