Let's talk Shoes.....My Favorite Subject

With the Fall season just around the corner, shoes go from colorful to nude, edgy to Ladylike. Pointy-toe heels are still around although I've never been a big fan. Although I used to love the 3 inch heels, these days I prefer the shorter kitten heel.....much easier to walk in at my age. While shopping for shoes last week, I noticed that strappy is in high fashion along with platforms for extra comfort. The short booty is still around....I'm happy to see...along with higher boots that have buckles or other hardware for a tougher, edgy look. Nude hues complement the earthtone clothing colors of the Fall season along with black and grey. I'm leaving for a two week trip to Italy next week. I can't wait to see the Italian shoe fashions. I don't think I've ever gone to Italy without buying at least one pair of shoes.....I'll report my findings and spending at the end of the month, when I get back. Ciao

Clickjacking Problems on Facebook

Facebook has recently won a court case against some hackers from what's called a "clickjacking" virus. It has come from several directions...Those notifications you get about a video or the flirting pages you get redirected to is the virus. The virus downloads into your Temp files when you open a window. So be careful not to click on the "like" buttons for those adds to the right on FB for now until it is resolved. Since the win for Facebook, the hackers have been all out full force trying to "clickjack" computers. You can read more about it on blog sites such as PCWorld, Social Media Examiner, and Mashable. I know people are blaming FB but it's not them causing the mess.
