“I don't know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot!” ― Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe couldn’t be more correct! Heels are a symbol of empowerment, independence, femininity and sexual allure for women in this century! 

When I think about high hells the first names that pop up in my mind are Christian Louboutin and this year sensation Jeffrey Campbell.

What can be more empowering then a 10 inches heel? The felling you get when you’re wearing them you feel almost like a goddess (Almost! To fell like a goddess you would have to be my equal and we know that’s impossible).

Heels just complete your style it makes everyone a 100% sure that you are a woman  that’s ready to conquer the world, to fight for your place in society to be whoever you want without being afraid of being  judge.

I mean the most influent women in the world wear high heels, Oprah and Michelle Obama for example, and I bet if Cleopatra was still alive she would wear the tallest of heels just to look and feel like the queen she was, in fact I that’s why we all use it isn’t it? To feel like we are queens and yes we do deserve it!

There are many kinds of heels pumps, peep toes (if you want to show off your beautiful pedicure) and my personal favorite stilettos. And lately you even have heels that don’t have actual heels! You can find them in every color imaginable, shapes and sizes! I think heels are indispensable in a woman’s wardrobe! Really you can and should wear heels everywhere, to work to parties to occasional encounters, it really highlights the kind of women you are.

So what to wear when you go out on a date on a Friday night or when you’re going out to the club with your girlfriends? Heels. What to wear when going to wedding or a friend’s birthday? Heels of course.  And to a job interview? That’s right heels again.

Tattoos Yes or No?

Let's talk about tattoos in this century I don't get you mortals for real! 

What is the fun in tattoos? 

In this century everyone wears them, kid, adults, elders… everyone! They tattoo themselves for statements like “rappers” gang members, for futilities just because it’s a trend in your school, to remember accomplishments or people that are important in your life like parents friend or your spouse. Well I have to admit as the goddess of love making a tattoo with the person you love it truly is a beautiful way to profess your love! Ok but let’s focus let’s see throughout the history tattooing has had many meanings in different cultures:

Like the Polynesian in their culture tattooing had a huge historical significance.

They were the most skillful tattoo artists of the ancient world. Tattoos could identify ones history bloodline and accomplishments, they would help the person to channel their inner

 powers, as they believed naively of course because only gods as myself could have powers…

or even just for medical purposes to keep them healthy and eradicate diseases.

The Egyptians tattooed their female priestess with dots and lines all over the body to

 prepare them for rituals. 

The Celts they favored blue tattoos with spirals that symbolized the connection of all life, and it showed the various paths one’s life could take…

In my beloved Greece tattoos were made only to slaves and gladiators they were a symbol of shame.

Summing everything up I think that in this century even though it’s reasons are different from the past tattoos have finally found its way to the fashion world many stars that are considered fashion icons such as Rihanna have been setting tattoo trends.

And sometimes the kind of tattoos that you have can define your style.

So yes to tattoos! The world is changing as well as the fashion world let’s let it all be and see where do we end up. I confess I’m thrilled to know here this leads because this kind of bold attitude throughout the ages have revolutionized the fashion world.
