Covet of the Week: Colin Stuart Heels
The Shoe Goddess may have good taste, but little does she know that these Colin Stuart Mary Jane Platform Heels (available at Victoria’s Secret), which she recently recommended on her blog, are also a well-heeled fashion tip for women who use wheelchairs. The double straps, the stacked heel (great for balancing on foot plates), and the subtle color choices (making them a greart, core shoe closet item), are a simply fantastic buy for women like us. I too want these in rose satin. Talk about the most perfect shade of pink! Gorg. You can buy your pair here for $78. – Tiff

Hey Jacket, Stop Being an Ass
Out of all the clothing on this planet, there’s one garment that’s without a doubt the hardest to put on if you’re paralyzed: And that’s the jacket.

And even though I’ve been injured for 15 years, I still haven’t found a trick that works every time. Have you? It’s almost winter and jacket-season is upon us. Help! I’m sick of fighting with my bloody jacket! – Tiff PS. And no, ponchos are not an option. Can you say EW?

Transformer Tiff
Seriously, I’d be ok with this. If stem cells can’t cure me in my lifetime, I’d have no beef in taking robotic technology instead. Potato, potatoe. So…do I look sexy or what? Don’t know if you’re in the loop or not, but there’s been a lot of research happening this year in the robotic technology field (2008 is the Year of the Rat afterall, symbolizing activity, hard work, and renewal), giving hope to people with spinal cord injuries everywhere; providing real belief that being able to walk again will happen in their lifetime (with ReWalk being one of the companies that’s gotten the most attention). Check this bad boy out (yet to be featured on this blog…I think):…
