Sweet beaded shoe. $2695.00. Awesomeness. Can you hear them? They are singing.

The fact that these are so wildly far out of ordinary mortal’s price point for shoes makes this even more fun as a fantasy challenge.

There is a dart detail in the back that makes it figure flattering. The over coat layer is so billowy, that it needs a fitted counter point.

(I am still recovering from the Hammer pants win. I am just decreasing the blood pressure medication I needed to get over it this week.) This week it looks like we go to the track. Who knows what they will throw at us.
