Pair #4- It's Hot in the Kitchen
Ok, I know the picture is silly. But so are the shoes. Very silly.
These are the kind of shoes that no one in their right mind would ever actually buy. One wonders what the designer who thought them up was thinking. I think it went something like this.
"Oh. Wow. Shit. I was wondering what was dragging on my car on the way to work today. Fuck. A piece of construction material. What should I do with it?"
And then, the eureka moment.
"I know! I'll throw it in these perfectly normal beige leather pumps! I'll just cut out some inserts, like this...oh my boss is gonna LOVE this. And it's such a popular shade of green! They are like hiking boots for a python! Sexxxy."
"You know what? Fuck it! FUCK IT! I am a genius! I am going to make the HEEL green too! Oh wow! These are going to be AMAZING. And so practical. Like for work and stuff, because of the beige."
This designer was, I am sure, promptly escorted from the building. But not before someone sent them to W magazine, which is how they came to be mine. They are very small, and no one could fit into them, so voila! My friend who worked there brought them home for me. And you know what? I wore them ALL the time for a while. That was in 2003 or so, and the green heels looked really cool peaking out from my long flared jeans. It just goes to show that sometimes crazy is just crazy. Like this blog.


I thought those shoes looked sooo familiar...couldn't place them till I read this. So funny, feels like ages ago! oh wait, it was ages ago!
