I thought it was time for a shoe post.

Shoes from modcloth.com, Not Rated, asos.com, Faith, and Steve Madden

Granted, the boots are kind of hideous, but also mesmerisingly eye-catching, and the piping and cutout detail is kind of cool. They could be used to good effect in a costume, maybe.

(ETA:The Steve Maddens are near-exact ripoffs of Topshop shoes posted here two seasons ago in red, I think it was. It should be noted that at the same time, big wide-heeled mjs with a metal ring round the bottom of the heel had trickled as far down as New Look, having been actually DESIGNED at Chloé like... three years ago? And I just now saw a copy of them at delias.com, though not an exact one. That's right - delia's:even further down the chain of knockoffs than Steve Madden. Apparently, they're about two steps - okay, unfair, 10 steps - above Wal-Mart and pretty far behind Target.)

Oh, man, those boots! I am trying to imagine a context, any context, in which I could wear them, and failing, but I want to anyway.

Actually, I think Diana wears those boots in Justice Riders.

those boots would be especially amazing in a flash gordon-esque setting, i feel. i really love the yellow ones, and the ones from faith. the buckles! the BOW!
