Foot Petals Make Fashion Painless

Imagine this: in a rush to L.A. Fashion Week you forget that the shoes you slipped on—the only ones that went perfectly with your 'fit—are a 1/2 size too big and annoyingly slip off your heels when you walk. Sucks, right? We've all been there before, but lucky for me Foot Petals were at the event just when I needed them.

In between emerging L.A. designer shows I stopped by the Foot Petals booth and spoke to creator Tina Aldatz's sister Angela Aldatz. Homegirl hooked a fellow Latina up with some serious footwear remedies! She sat me down, gently peeled off my heels and inserted a pair of Tip Toes inside my shoes and sprayed some Sweaty Pedi on my feet. It's like she read my foot's mind!

We exchanged info and I walked away cured. My heels were no longer slipping off my feet and my toes smelled like fresh flowers. Says Tina (below):

"After years of working in the fashion industry and endless hours of walking in painful shoes, I knew there had to be a better way. My goal was to create a pretty solution to this ugly problem. With extensive research, design, and engineering, I created Foot Petals, the original designer shoe cushions. Now women everywhere can walk in style and comfort. I have been so pleased with the response from fashion editors, celebrities and consumers that I am inspired to continue developing designer, solution-oriented products."
