IS IT UNFEMINIST TO
WEAR HIGH HEELS?

Only if the high heels are shouting up at you: "Oi, Sarah! Women aren't good for anything but cooking, cleaning and shagging! Go and make us a cup of tea, will you, love?"
Other than that, there's nothing inherently bad about high heels, just as there isn't about most clothes.

New company Saddle & Spoke specialises in up-and-coming designers, stocking everything from arm warmers and capes to bike bells and racks. I found the bag of my dreams at Michaux Club. Its extra strap stops it swinging forward dangerously, and (although it's so pretty you'd never guess) it's waterproof, with reflective detailing.
