Best Place to Buy Shoes

The foot has been fetishized and eroticized throughout the ages, and the best place to indulge this passion is the women's shoe department at Nordstrom. Everything from the sensible to the trendy is represented, from Ferragamo pumps and Kate Spade flats to python-skin boots and platform sandals that will leave you teetering precariously. Need a Japanese-style wooden platform sandal with purple pansies painted on it? Or Saucony sneakers in metallic baby pink and blue? The attentive staff can help locate these exotic items in a flash. Making this department even better are the comfortable black leather seats and the multiple TVs that usually show whatever game is on. Football and shoe shopping? We all win.
