Damsels Hate Your Crazy Shoe

Say whatever you want about high fashion and couture, I have a love for them too (obviously). But I also have a love for practicality (common sense-ically).

Earlier this week I was perusing my usual fashion blogs and news when this pair of shoes was brought to my attention as a "MUST" for October:

Via net-a-porter.com


This shoe is a must for October? You MUST be clinically insane. Firstly, these are sandals. Since when have sandals ever been a "must" for October? Secondly, these shoes, dear damsels, are $2,495. Yes, you heard me correctly. And, they are Jimmy Choo, no less. But in this case, I think the branding is where all the value lies (see what I did there?). I honestly think you could get something as crazy as this at Charlotte Russe and attach a crazy feather key chain to it, and you'd have the look complete.

This shoe is not practical. It doesn't serve a purpose in fall weather. It is completely overpriced, and can we say it already? Feathers are so last year!  This shoe looks like high-end crazy. And, last time I checked, high-end crazy still had the word crazy in it. Hey, we all miss the mark sometimes, Jimmy Choo.

Don't agree with me? I can hold my own in a fight. Let us know how you feel on Facebook/Twitter or in the comments below. Don't be shy...we aren't.
