I love the first and third pairs... the heel-less ones freak me out though! How do you walk in those?

I believe it would have to be sheer force of will

I totally agree with Miss Claire.. Buy a comfortable heeled shoe.. There really are some shoes out there that are stylish and sexy both. Please don't forsake fashion for fundamental functionalism. Don't give in to tacky flip-flops or ugly Birkenstocks.

I don't think anyone has the right to complain unless one has walked a mile in these shoes...



Or these...



As a little side note: I have worn the second pair of shoes; for a brief moment I felt very tall and oh-so cool... then I nearly fell over and decided maybe they weren't for me...

Ah well - experience, eh? I know now not to wear 8" heels without protective headwear and elbow and knee padding...

Courtenay xoxox.

how to you walk in the heel-es ones? HOW???!!

some of them are unwearable but no 1, 3,4,5,7 do look walkable in . okay, so maybe not walkable but u can teeter around in them.
they are all very beautiful though.

Haha, it was tricky but I s'pose you would get used to it after a while... if you really wanted to get used to it... I kept feeling like I was going to fall forward because of the shape of the platform...

The ballet ones aren't really... functional... I think it would help if you've had en pointe training.

And even then...
