While I am just this side of Tomboy myself, (my husband describes my style as pretty but sturdy), I appreciate a heroine who clearly invests some of her monthly budget in fashion magazines like so many women of the world do.
I like quirks in my characters so I think a shoe fetish, clothes addiction, jewelry needs, and the compulsion to wax poetic about housewares are just as good of quirks as any others.
I, of course, could have filled every slot on this list with Kristen Ashley's ladies and their shopping and long passages on hair alone. I restrained myself. I also left off some classics such as Minerva from Jennifer Cruise's Bet Me to make room for some other heroines and their lovely painted toes.
