How about some shoes to go with those handbags?

Lovely. Same week as this bullshit:

We also had this piece of work from the Post:

A White House counsel known for her shoes

It may say more about Washington than White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler that she’s known in the West Wing for her fabulous shoes.

Ruemmler first attracted attention for her glam heels as a Justice Department prosecutor trying Enron executives Ken Lay and Jeffrey Skilling in 2006, when she sported what The Wall Street Journal described as “stunning 4-inch bright pink stiletto spikes.”

A legal affairs blog “Above The Law,” called her a “star litigatrix” as a result. ”Litigatrix indeed,” the blog wrote. “Just because you work for the DOJ doesn’t mean you have to shop at DSW.”

Now, she wears Manolo Blahniks and Christian Louboutins into the Oval Office.

WTF is a "litigatrix", and will they every stop with the insipid "OOOOOOOOOH we are writing about WOMEN so we have to talk about FASHION" bullshit?

Lordy I am tired.

1. Litigatrix

Per urban dictionary:

A feisty and dominant female litigator, preferably hot. This portmanteau of litigator and dominatrix was coined by David Lat of AboveTheLaw.com.

Professional women everywhere get such--special-- names.
