My hair-stylists' shoes

These are the shoes that my hair stylist was wearing today.


Mercury was the mythological character who was depicted with winged shoes.  Both FTD and GoodYear Tires have used this imagery in their logos.


"With winged feet ‘tis thine through air to course, O friend of man, and prophet of discourse; great life-supporter, to rejoice is thine in arts gymnastic, and in fraud divine. "
--Orphic Hymn 28 to Hermes (trans. Taylor) (Greek hymns C3rd B.C. to 2nd A.D.)
