High Heels of Doom

February 28th, 2008

The UK Daily Mail is running a piece on the latest fashion must-have: the heel-less high heel. The what what?

See for yourself:

Two words for you: utterly ridiculous. Like, WTF? These things actually make me speechless. You might as well be walking around the town square on effin’ stilts. Although I’m sure these balance-testers are great for building core strength and for crafting killer calves, I would still give you a little nudge for wearing them. And then you’d fall.

Apparently Gwyneth Paltrow, Uma Thurman and Victoria Beckham all have a pair, which by the way, cost upwards of $3,000(!).

So I’m officially saying that high heels without heels are idiotic. But wait - hold up! - look what clogs Mariah Carey was wearing on her hooves yesterday:

So I take it all back. High heels, with or without the heels, are idiotic.

  1. Why do shoes that have LESS material cost MORE than an average shoe? It’s like shorts that cost more than their pants equivalent. WTF?

    Also, how is this practical? And what’s wrong with an actual heel? Has it been deemed uncouth by the fashionable masses?

  2. Maria still looks good
