Ladies, is the expression "you make my head spin" related to love in English? It is in French -Cf Edith Piaf's "Tu me fais tourner la tête, mon manège à moi c'est toi...". When we say "He makes my head spin" it means "he's driving me mad"/"I'm mad about him". So were the shoes any sort of magical love potion or did she fall in love because he was smart enough to make such fabulous shoes... she'll never tell us!
