Shoe shields

Once upon a time I worked for a beautifully coiffed and groomed woman with a marvellous array of footwear.  Interestingly, whenever she had a big or difficult meeting, she would appear in very elegant, very high and very high end shoes.  To my recollection, she never wore them to work otherwise.  They only came out when something big was going down.  Footwear as armour?
I do not treat these puppies as armour, but, for some reason they often remind me of her when I put them on.  It's probably a combination of the brand, the height and the odd sense of my own power I feel when I wear them.  I don't mean negative or harmful power, I mean that solid feeling of feminine power within myself that comes from just feeling good.
