Something about leaving work today made me go, I need some ridiculous shoes.

One stop to Payless later...

I now have a decent pair of flats, some fun heels for fall, a pair of those open-toed "sneakers" with a heel, and these platform-y faux cork-colored pumps. They screamed "THESE ARE SHOES YOU BUY WHEN ALL YOU WANT IS SHOES." I will probably never find an excuse to wear them, so I'm wearing them now as I lay on my bed. I feel totally decadent.

Tomorrow, I will probably panic and try to return all of these. Especially when I consider those $5 ridiculous shoes I bought and tried to wear for viridian's bachelorette party. (I ended up going to Duane Reade and buying and wearing house slippers around the city.)

PICTURES, WOMAN!

I totally have been coveting new shoes. I alllllmost bought a replica of SJP's shoes from Sex and the City, not because I like her at all, but because they were awesome, and like $25.

Indeed, I think for hilarity value there should be pics :)

Ask, and ye shall receive.

These are the flats. (http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensCasuals&BLC=WomensPromoFlats&Width=Regular&ItemCode=60024&LotNumber=062243&Type=Adult&Popularity=176&DescriptiveColor=Green) They are so sensible, it hurts, but I never, never, never had flats that fit so well and didn't make me feel stupid.

The sneaker-pumps I got are like these but with a peep-toe and a sling-back. (http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensCasuals&BLC=WomensCasualsTrendy&Width=Regular&ItemCode=59548&LotNumber=062209&Type=Adult&Popularity=512&DescriptiveColor=Red) I'll wear those out at least.

I can't find a picture of the fall-appropriate heels, but they're this shape (http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensDress&BLC=WomensDressTrendy&Width=Regular&ItemCode=55362&LotNumber=046689&Type=Adult&Popularity=2835&DescriptiveColor=Black/Flat) in this color. (http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensShoes&BLC=WomensDressTrendy&Width=Regular&ItemCode=60050&LotNumber=062325&Type=Adult&Popularity=195&DescriptiveColor=Tan)

And, finally, the ridiculosity shoes. (http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensDress&BLC=WomensDressSandals&Width=Wide&ItemCode=59497&LotNumber=060767&Type=Adult&Popularity=242&DescriptiveColor=Tan) Yeah, I'm breaking ankles if I try to wear those anywhere.

The ridiculous ones dont really look *that* ridiculous?

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Alas, not. They were the best I could do at the local place. I debated getting some of the truly tacky or perilously heeled shoes at the discount store, but it's skeevy there, and I am not picking up fungus or warts for a stupid impulse to put on shoes....

[neo-leviathan.livejournal.com]

Not wanting to pick up fungus for trying on shoes I can most definitely understand! Quite highly advised in fact!

I still dont see them being deserving of the term 'ankle breaking' though

You try walking in them, then we'll talk :P

Can *you* see any ways around the rather obvious issues with that idea?

I have no idea why the previous comment was anonymous.

Man, see, that's what I wanted to go for, really--spindly heels and stupid toes that I can't wear. I ended up with a pair of flats, for christ's sakes. I mean, yes, ridiculous shoes to make me feel like a porn star, fine, but not enough! NOT ENOUGH.

What I need them to do is bring back those brown heeled mary janes I liked...
