hile Melody follows fashion for a living, she is no fashion victim. Her shoe collection contains few back-breaking stilettos and more platform sandals that feel like flats. Her favorite place for unearthing these is a store in Portland, Oregon called Switch. “I can always count on sandals or boots from Switch that I won’t see anywhere else,” Melody explained. “They do most of their buying in Israel. Their styles look really funky on the shelf and hot on the feet!” No more switching to flip-flops mid-evening.
