Because I got such a positive response last time I wrote about this (and requests for more!), I give you the World’s Worst Shoes part deux.
The actual shoe isn’t awful, it would actually look sort of cute as a flat. BUT, it is not flat. Oh no, it has a heel. And I’m completely perplexed by this heel. Can someone please explain to me how I’m supposed to walk with a giant suction cup attached to my foot?
Five words: Rodger Rabbit or a clown. You pick.
Why? Why, oh why did Roberto Cavalli think that turning a saddle into a shoe would be a good idea. And $735? For that?! I think Italians must know where to get some good drugs.
Dear Mom and Dad, today at summer camp I made a Native American Dreamcatcher in the arts and crafts shed. My counselor said it was looking a little boring, so I added some yarn from the scrap bucket. I hope you like it!
You know those woven plastic/rubbery lawn chairs that you accidentally leave outside all year, causing their shiny whiteness to turn gray? I turned mine into a shoe for you.
Hurt your foot? No problem! It’s a shoe and an ankle brace in one!
Oh…so that’s what happened to my oven mitt!
It’s like sticking your foot in the arm rest of grandma’s couch.

OMG that was officially hilarious! Seriously? Those are real shoes and not some rendition of a nightmare?? If I ever see someone walking around in those here in LA I will stop her and point and laugh.
OK, maybe just in my head.

I love “it’s like sticking your foot in the arm rest of grandma’s couch” it’s not just the shoes, it’s the commentary! You crack me up.

You are hilarious. My favorite ones this time are the Dreamcatcher heels. I can’t even fathom an outfit that would look remotely decent with those shoes on.

OK–if these were the only shoes left on Earth and I had no other choices I think I’d wear the ankle brace and wear LONG pants to cover up the hideousness!

Teeheee, hilarious is exactly the word. Unbelievable. The lawn chair one is sooo ugly.

Wow. That is really all I can say.
I think you’re onto something, with the drugs. 🙂
Thank you for the giggles.

Uh, the last ones look like French Soles (FS/NY). I have them in pink–those were the ones that got destroyed in the rain! They weren’t worth the money. They’re so uncomfortable to walk in because there’s zero cushioning in the sole. And the whole suede-wears-off-and-gets-dirty-fast thing just sucks. Ahhh!

You have COMPLETELY outdone yourself.
It’s like a car wreck, I don’t really want to look, but I can’t avert my eyes.
HILARIOUS!

You need to do like a project runway but for shoes. Start up a show woman.
