There’s been some trash talking here about the DFWConnference ShoeCam Grudge-match. You know who (yes, you, Jenni, so don’t even think you can hide) has asked her blog faithful to tell her which shoes will grind my lovelies into the dust and win her the glory. It’s only fair that I beg for your advice in turn.
Don’t leave me unprepared.I’m packed (overpacked, actually), but which shoes should I wear? There are a couple of business-y but not too conservative dresses/dress suits in my bag, a skirt with a two different silk blouses that match, and jeans/leggings to wear with funky T-shirts or a tunics. And we’ll be in Dallas Fort Worth, so no need to worry about dressing for warmth.
So tell me, SAMH readers–Which of these should I wear to smack Jenni down for the grudge-match count???
The dresses are blue/blueish gray, so naturally I’m thinking of wearing this cool brown Nanette Lepores.
Or, my black platform Cole Haan Mary Janes. These have Niki air soles, believe it or not. Definitely conference wearable, regardless of the heel.

The jeans are flared. Gladiator Nanette’s would be great for the casual stuff.
Or these leopard print Stuart Weitzmans. I can’t decide
I’m packing a pair of flats, too, and another pair of sandals for the casual skirts. But these are my go-to, grudge-match winners. Except I’m only there for three days. I can’t wear them all. Argh, the inhumanity!!!
You be the judge–cast your vote in the comments ;o)
And don’t forget–Jenni and I will be tweeting our and others’ footwear fashion all weekend, as well as great conference tips and tidbits. Writing craft, social media buzz, publishing industry updates, etc.
See you at the con!

Oh, you have to take the leopard print and the brown Nanette Lepores are fabulous. See, I’m no help at all, I’m brainstorming ideas for you to change between sessions and wear them all.
Leopard print Stuart Weitzmans, they are lovely. I want some.
The Gladiators and the Mary Janes! Looooove them!
The Mary Janes. So pretty.
My toes are blue.
I just love the Nanette Lepores.
Girls and their shoes. I’ll never quite get it. I think the Wife needs a separate garage, now, for all of her bloody shoes.
I stopped counting after Jenni said “I’m gonna kill myself!” in those shoes today.
(But, I guess I can vote for the Nanettes, too.)
)
Great classes today, ladies!
You just have to take them all.
I can’t believe it. A friend, Mr. Camacho,suggested you blog to me because he said we have something in common…and boy do we ever!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE shoes. So much so; that my blog is called booksshooeswriting.blogspot.com because it covers the three things I LOVE most in life…ok, well my kids are in there somewhere. Any way, my vote..the leopard print….but please go to my site..because I also have challenged the ladies to a sexy shoe contest on my blog..I have 1 pair of my newest aquistions posted and would LOVE for you to do a guest blog on my site about your smackdown!….Look forward to hearing from you
