THE NEWSLETTER OF SUPERSTITIONS, HEELS, AND RHODODENDRONS
Dear you.
Friday the 13th.
The day when superstitious souls hide away, avoid mirrors, and beg black cats to stay clear of them. But you? You’re not the type to back down from a calendar. You’re the kind to slip into Patricia Blanchet shoes, slam the door, and turn this so-called cursed day into your personal stage. Because honestly, between superstition and your heels, guess who wins ?
We already know the answer.
Friday the 13th : A little history to shine
For those who love sharing fun facts at parties, know that this day’s bad reputation dates back to the Templars, arrested on a Friday the 13th in 1307. Since then, it’s become a symbol of bad luck. And honestly, what’s more thrilling than flipping that superstition on its head ?
Rest assured, if a black cat crosses your path today, it’s not to bring bad luck it’s admiring your shoes. And if it walks under a ladder, it couldn’t care less about the rumors. It, like you, knows that elegance is all that matters.
Superstitions and Christmas :
Dare the collisionDecember is that time when everyone pretends to be good, hoping not to end up on Santa’s naughty list. But mixing Friday the 13th with the Christmas spirit is like pairing golden stilettos with red velvet : daring ? Of course. Stunning ? Always. It’s pure Tim Burton.
Rules don’t exist.
If someone tells you not to walk under a ladder, do it anyway but with shoes so impressive that even the ladder bows to you. If you break a mirror, let them chatter about seven years of bad luck while you admire your reflection in a holiday store window.
Make this day your lucky charm.
Today, forget superstitions and treat yourself to a moment. Step out, defy this so-called unlucky day, and stride in my heels that boldly declare : “This is my day, and nothing not even Michel Barnier will stop me”.
Your reward ? You.
My collections exist for one reason : to turn your steps into works of art. No bad luck, no curse, just shoes that remind you how irresistible you are. If today is supposed to bring bad luck, let’s make that bad luck spectacular.
PS : If anyone dares criticize your choices today, just look at them, smile, and keep walking. You’ve probably just made their day.
