Well, smack my ass and call me Stripper Barbie! I’ve found the newest on the list of Impractical Shoes I Will Never Afford Or Wear But Still Bizarrely Covet. It’s coming straight from the hot little design studio of one Charlotte Olympia (surnamed Dellal, sister to Alice, she of the half-shorn head.) The line has a lot of other very cool, intensely covet-worthy shoes, but there’s just something about the ridiculousness of this particular pair that speaks to me. I mean, how best to compliment my mainly black, red and navy wardrobe than with a splash of BRIGHT SCREAMING PINK?! (Actually, I have about three pairs of shoes this colour, so apparently it’s a thing with me. And I wear none of them. Ever. I should work on that.)

For any of you with a spare G to drop and an aching void waiting to be filled with PLATFORM, they’re available here.

Let’s kick the day off by examining the differences between fashion and fetishwear, shall we?

Oh, McQueen, you naughty boy. Stopping me before I’ve even gotten started.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to figure out how to fit them into my daily routine. Easy to wear to work at a law firm, non? No, you say? And I might break my ankles? And I can’t afford them anyway, so I should stop daydreaming about my alternate existence as a sexy spy/fembot who can pull these off without being pointed at?

Life, what silly impediments you throw my way. Must try harder.
