Captivate

captivate
1. To hold the attention of by fascinating; enchant
2. To capture.

I don't think being feminine has anything to do with shoes and pink and acting sweet. I think it's about how well you can captivate. It's about living the contradiction. It's about mastering the mix of soft and bold with a little bit of wild, in all the right amounts so they fascinate; and never erring too much on any one extreme. Being feminine is the art of being everything and nothing all at once, and then suceeding in making it all look effortless.

And then, it's totally all about the shoes.
