Matisse Sheena’s Weekly Rant – Celebutard Inspired Footwear
by JULIA
Hahaha….Great way to launch into Monday. I needed to come up with a good topic for Sheena and with all the silly press around Lindsey Lohan, I couldn’t resist. lol Thanks for making me laugh Sheena! :) The disclaimer reads: “Sheena’s Weekly Rant is meant for entertainment purposes only and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of all Shoebizness contributors.

Mattise Sheena’s Weekly Rant – You’re Cut Off!
by JULIA
I heard about this little show with Matisse a while back and since it has finally been announced Sheena can spill a little bit of the details! I think they should have made Sheena the star and documented her instead of a whole bunch of spoiled girls, but what do I know about good TV….I don’t even have one! Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing the show and hopefully it will boost sales for our dear friends! Th…
What’s Up With Matisse
by JULIA
These are one of my faves! They are great for fall and they look adorable on! I visited my friends at Matisse Footwear first when I arrived at the Hilton on the first day of FFaNY and I must say that I love their Spring ’11 line! It really is great! A bit of military inspiration and a lot of interesting designs. I had so much fun trying on everything and hopefully I helped convince the buyers that were there to go for t…

Matisse Sheena’s Weekly Rant: My Pet Peeve
by Matisse Sheena
I thought I was asking for it when I gave Sheena this topic, but it turns out that I totally agree with her and I must say that this is also my biggest pet peeve! People need to learn to love what they do and love their life or do something different. I know it is easier said than done, but if I can do it, so can anyone else!! I talk to people all the time who just don’t want to do what they are doing, but won’t make the chan…
Matisse Sheena’s Weekly Rant – CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN – WHAT THE F@$%*??
by Matisse Sheena
Wackadoodle!!! When Sheena told me that she wanted to write about the Christian Louboutin article featured in Vanity Fair magazine this week, I had not read it yet. She said it was controversial, which for Sheena to say meant it must be good, er uh well bad. Well as I was traveling this week (sorry for the hiatus from writing during this time) I decided to pick up a copy in the Miami airport heading back to NYC and let me t…
Matisse Sheena’s Weekly Rant – DINNER MEETINGS
by Matisse Sheena
Sheena has been a total slacker lately and got this to me a day late again, but oh well. What are we going to do with her?? I have to agree with Sheena that dinner meetings really should only be used as a fun light outlet to establish relationships….I cannot say I have been to one myself where any major decisions were made…usually as the drinks come rather than discussing business, people start exchanging f…
Matisse Sheena’s Weekly Rant: WHAT MAKES A GREAT BOSS, GREAT?
by Matisse Sheena
I gave Sheena this topic because I know for a fact she has a great boss! Michael Katz, is one hell of a guy and he truly cares about the people around him which is very apparent and rare. I haven’t even known him that well for that long and his kindness to me personally has been amazing. So anyway, I just wanted to say that and while she doesn’t mention him personally I know she is referring to him on all positive…
Sheena Weekly Rant – Rewind!!
by JULIA
Sheena rocking her Julia Veli accents and notice her pearls! Awe she loves me. I forgot, once again to give Sheena a topic this week, so I thought I would list a few of my favorite articles of hers! There have been some good ones! She is one funny girl and I love her blunt honesty….appreciate it even. So check out some of my favorites and if you are bored (shouldn’t be if you are at work haha) then go through more o…
Sheena’s Weekly Rant: Male Reps Vs Female Reps

Sheena at FNPlatform – Working hard! Oh snap! I knew I was asking for it when I gave Sheena this topic and she did not disappoint! That’s all I am going to say on this one! Happy Friday!

BALANCING HOME LIFE AND WORK LIFE, THE IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE
by Matisse Sheena
Go Sheena! I am not quite sure why I opened up this can of worms, but I am sure there are a lot of you out there that can relate! I hear all the time about how the crazy schedule of all you shoe people can be quite brutal, but hopefully it’s worth it. I am sure for Sheena it will be because she is a rock star and is going to do so many amazing things in her career! I just know it!! Now, all of you who are getting ready for another tr…
Sheena’s Weekly Rant – What does it take to get some good press??
by JULIA
Happy Monday! Enjoy this edition of Sheena’s weekly rant…a bit late but better than never! We’ve missed her! Every company wants good press and it seems like the best way to get it is to shell out the big bucks. I have to say coming from outside the industry learning the way things work from the mind of a consumer, I was definitely disappointed and in fact felt lied to by the way the press works. Most pos…
Sheena’s (supposed to be) Weekly Rant – FFANY and the Fallen Enemy
by Matisse Sheena
Yay – Sheena’s back! We had a great time in NYC hanging out….thanks to her boss I learned that my knee has great reflexes. haha So yet again, another brand is talking about MAGIC over WSA….hmmmm….seems to be a big trend! I hate to say it but I think WSA made a big mistake and opened the door for MAGIC to step in and provide the necessary elements to make a great trade show for everyone! I don…
Matisse Sheena’s Weekly Rant, Sheena Interrupted
by Matisse Sheena
Sorry we are a day late….hopefully you remember my apology. Last week when we were pondering what Sheena’s topic would be, she mentioned something about being a crazy person, which made me think of the movie Girl Interrupted. I personally think she is more like Angelina Jolie’s character, but don’t tell her I said that! lol Anyways, we are all crazy….some of us just hide it better a…
Matisse Sheena’s Weekly Rant-Zalloween

The Matisse Crew – Hilarious! I don’t have a whole lot to say about this except that it’s hilarious! ….so sad I missed it! Sheena looks amazing as a white trash mamma!! Sounds like everyone had fun and leave it to Zappos to through such a fun event. Maybe next year shoebizness will sponsor a hole! ZALLOWEEN Halloween has come and gone, but my photos last forever… So, we sponsored a hole at the Za…
