    I don't believe "foreshortening" the legs is unflattering. That's saying that short legs are unattractive, which is bullshit. Perhaps the shoes are just plain ugly.

    Puh-leeze... Ask my Mother who is 71 in December about so-called 'hideous', foot pulverising shoes! She still has bunions that you chart the development of the modern world on. She has long since rejected the shoes that she adored, bought, wore and yearned for BUT, she is very envious of the shoes I buy that don't horribly manipulate my feet (too much!) but still look damn gorgeous!


    It's not about taste (or, horror, comfort!) with these types of boots or shoes - it's about desire and let's face it, sexiness and fuck-off/me-ability!

    Sadie, thank you. Now please write a corollary rant about what the over-sized em-buckled-and grommeted hideosity that purses have become is doing to civilization.

    I am sorry, but totally love the gladiator style high heels. I adore them. Even more when they are badass bitch black. Yeah, that's a color.

    Maybe it's just me, but I have always loved anything black, silvery, or borderline dominatrix-esq. No I don't own a pair of leather chaps, let alone leather pants but the trend while in moderation does not bother me. You know what did bother me, the Uggs and leggings thing which I still see a lot of

    @BitchIsTheNewBlack:


    I am concerned about the numbers of girls I see wearing leggings but no pants. Leggings are not pants. Pants are pants! Have they been hit that hard by the recession?

    You know what? The older I get the more I realize that if you can't do it wearing Converse All Stars, it's not worth doing. I still totter around in heels once in a while, but I'm getting tired of that kind of shit.

    I just hate them because they make your legs look shorter. Why would anyone want that?

    There are really so many beautiful shoes out there, it confuses me why people keep buying the ugly ones. It's like they become overwhelmed and just grab something and only realize upon return home that they've got cankle-producing, leg stunting madness in their bags. Only instead of sheepishly returning the shoes ("I got the wrong size") they try to make some kind of fashion statement with them. No thank you.
