We Love The Manolo!

One of my favorite blogs is Manolo's Shoe Blog. "The Manolo" serves up shoes and dishes celebrities, all with a certain panache and wit. Here's his most recent entry, shoe advice for a congressional aide:

Manolo says, the Manolo he can think of few jobs more demanding and less appreciated than to be the assistant to the congressperson.

It is like being the governess for the very head-strong and naughty young child, whom you must continually retrieve from one potentially dangerous or embarrassing situation after the next.

You are in charge of so many important things, such as arranging all of the play-dates with the lobbyists, and insuring that the committee homework gets done on time. You must endure the silly temper tantrums graciously and make certain that the self-esteem of your congresschild is properly cultivated.

Read the whole thing here, along with The Manolo's shoe recommendation.

Interestingly enough, I discovered Twisty through The Manolo's blog (it's one of his links). He also has very eclectic tastes in books and music, and has keyed me into some very interesting books. Oh, and if you're a fan of Project Runway, his Project Runway weekly episode recaps just don't get any better.
