Geez Louise. Can you imagine trying to walk on those things and one of those crystals breaks? Goodbye ankle.

Ha ha. I doubt they're meant for walking. I'm sure they cost a fortune, so no one would want to chip the crystals, I'm guessing. Like most heels: sexy but thoroughly impractical. But taken to a new level.

I love that they are plugged by a place called the wiccanalter. I'm sure they're very traditional for witches and druids, I'm sure.

But, hey, they are purple and creative. That alone makes them awesome in their own way.

Perhaps not, but you know some idjit in Hollyweird is going to try. They are, after all, "haute couture".

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis

hummingbirdstones: ok, I’ll concede and revise. Meant to be worn on a runway for 30 seconds, and only by those with special training, and lots of insurance.

Nailed it.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
