There is so much confusion and noise it seems, about fashion and feminism, empowering women and dressing to please others. The taboos of wearing make up and the taboos of not wearing make up. Heels are bad for you. Heels are sexist. Heels are gorgeous. Heels are compulsory. Never judge a book by its cover, beauty is only skin deep. Etcetera etcetera. I’m sure you have quite a number of your own to add to these cliches.

What do you think?
