Katie Couric kicks off BlogHer: VIDEO

A little heavy on the Moms-going-to-BlogHer theme (hellllooo, plenty of child-free women are going, too!), but still very nice of Katie to do that.

Have to love that Katie! (not that I have watched her since she moved to the 6 O'clock but I am loving those, far out of my reach, shoes AND her great support of us hard working/spending women. Beware world, us blogging women are a force to be reckoned with.

This is so showing my age but I have to say it --Katie's cute kicks would kill my feet.  And I remember my 5 inch Charles Jourdan mules -- was it 30 years ago?!  There was such power in towering and teetering on those bad boys.  

Now comfort wins out most of the time except I do have a few favorite pairs of pointed toe pumps with the little, what do they call them --kitten heels.

Loved that!

But I'm still wearing my man shoes to BlogHer this year. Gonna keep my feets comfy and toasty in San Fran. ;)

I thought about flip flops but I figured I might get my toes stepped on.

and not a shoe person I'm even saying those kicks are spanking.

But moving up from her tootsies I appreciated that she took the time to mention bloggers and BlogHer without the usual contempt spewed undertone by others in her profession and that she recognized the buying power and interest of (some) of the women folks on the planet.

Changes ladies, there are changes afoot. But I am not wearing high heels to get there. Sneaker solidarity!

Tell you what, you wear one, I'll wear the other. At least we'll have one good leg left each!

You know I never really got into her.  But just her doing this video hello has gone a long way in winning me over!  And her shoes were HOT!  I mean Sista was rocking those fly-ass stilletos!

Oh I am so watching her at 6:00pm from now on! 

Way too much pressure on SHOES...AARGH!

Love,
