Footwear Friday

By Glinda

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.




  2. Caitlin Says:

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




  3. Twistie Says:

    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.




  4. Jen Says:

    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?




  6. gamma Says:

    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.
