I was at the Shu Tokyo Lash party last week and although the lashes were interesting and the makeup imaginative and all, let me confess. I only had eyes for the shoes.
Or perhaps I should say footwear.
The models who took to the runway were wearing these really strange looking things on their feet and I could not help staring and wondering how they even managed to walk in them. You know, I have a healthy sort of admiration for models.
People may deride them and call them shallow but try walking a mile in their shoes… specifically these shoes…
or perhaps these shoes?
Or maybe even these strange backward facing shoes…
… and then see what you will say 🙂
Me? I have nothing but respect for models who can strut the runway in 5 inch heels, in shoes too big for them, in shoes that look like THESE… and not fall flat on their faces.
Dare you take the step to walk a mile in their shoes? 🙂

ParisB says
Ooh! haha it would be fun anyway huh?
Issa says
wow, they really have skills to walk on those! hihihi…. i love to try the black one (ah, i’m a frustrated model, hahaha)
ParisB says
LOL! The black one looks the most “wearable” of the lot actually 😀
Mrs Top Monkey says
Bookends izzit? Would look nice if your interior decor is fashionista-themed!
ParisB says
Oh ya hor!
lemon says
I am a shortie, so this shoes will probably boast up my height. Ha ha…but nah…i am into Crocs and flat heel shoes nowadays. Cos I walked fast…..feel unsafe walking down the Malaysia street……
ParisB says
Oh yes. On the street I’m all about flats too. Its also a lot more comfortable 🙂
yuki says
It’s crazy! Their legs must have been aching after that!
ParisB says
It might actually not be as uncomfortable as it looks – who knows eh? I think stilettoes are worse
gio says
Those shoes are crazy! Must be so difficult and painful to walk in them!
ParisB says
But they did! Down the catwalk and back again. I was amazed
jamilla says

ParisB says
Yikes! I hope you heal well!
Lee says
Unless I want a broken back, no prolly :p
ParisB says
LOL! Me too!

Lady Gaga!
ParisB says
Very Gaga and very Alexander McQueen too!
rinnah says
Ooh, I would love trying to wear these platform shoes… for fun, but not in real life! 😛
ParisB says
I think I’d fall off at the first opportunity!
Cynthia says
Drool~~~~~~~ *amazed*
Jess says
This is crazy ! I see one lady in Japan mrt wearing heels in U shape. Weird but its true … hmmm
ParisB says
Haha… they’d wear anything in Japan 🙂
Nadia says
Victoria Beckham wore similar shoes, and I personally have so much respect for the likes of them who can strut in those impossible killer shoes! Personally, I don’t think I could. No, make that I know I can’t. hehe…it’s a fun idea, certainly, but I’d definitely fall flat on my face! haha 😛
ParisB says
You’re right! Actually I think Victoria Beckham gets more respect from me because she probably wore them to an event which would have lasted hours while models just have a few hours to stand in those 😀
plue says
wearing normal heels already give me problems, so no way, these shoes will never appear on my feet!
Amanda says
I love high heels – 3 1/2inch is the max I can do. These ones? No, thank you 😀
