Footwear Friday

Between “Thou shalt not mix reds and whites in the laundry” and “It is a sin to put A1 Sauce on a perfectly good steak,” there lies the 1,115th commandment:

“Yea, verily, thou shalt never combine sequins with unpolished leather…”

Ugh…

Because as we can see, the result is far cry from heavenly.

    I think it’s cool. I would totally wear those.

    Those are awful, not to mention yet another choking hazard.

    Those would be so much cuter if they were just two tones of unpolished leather. Then I’d want a pair for myself. Maybe without the bows.

    They’re not entirely offensive. I mean, I’ve seen worse. They’re a little bit country and a little bit Cher.

    This is what Indiana Jones’s daughter wears to be sacrificed by the desert cultists to their sun god.

    I heart sequins. I love the cut of the shoes. But no, just no. What are you going to wear them with? A camo jumpsuit and pith helmet with a big burst of spangled veiling, for those pesky, malaria-bearing insects?

    Yeah, you’re gonna regret those shoes about the time Sweetpea starts gnawing off the sequins because she’s too young to appreciate that this is a Fashion Statement. Which means it’s time to reshop for something a bit more timeless (meaning, it won’t go out of style before she outgrows it) and age-appropriate.

    And express your inner trendmeister on your own feet.
