Crazy Platform shoes : Walk a mile in these shoes!

July 10, 2011 Paris B 27 Comments

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.

walk in these 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…

these shoes

or perhaps these shoes?

shoes shoes shoes!

Or maybe even these strange backward facing shoes…

strange 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? 🙂

      It might actually not be as uncomfortable as it looks – who knows eh? I think stilettoes are worse

    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 😛

      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 😀

    wearing normal heels already give me problems, so no way, these shoes will never appear on my feet!

    I love high heels – 3 1/2inch is the max I can do. These ones? No, thank you 😀

I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskinca I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskincare Aura Manuka Honey Mask. It blew my mind away! Soothes skin. Boosts hydration and just makes you feel like you have the best skin ever! Not kidding. If you have a spot or irritated skin, it calms it down and helps get rid of your spots too. Honey is anti bacterial after all, so it’s a great multitasker. 
I also love the Manuka Honey Skin brightening Day Cream. It’s light but creamy and sinks into the skin. I’ve reviewed them both on the blog in the past. If you run a search for Antipodes, you’d also notice how much I love the brand! 😁
I’m super late with this but if you’re planning to purchase any of these 3 Manuka honey items from TNS Skinlab, the code MYWSTUFF10 will give you an extra 10% off (until tomorrow 31 Dec) I highly recommend grabbing the Aura mask. You’ll never want to be without (I always have a backup!) 
Thanks for the gift @tnsskinlab and I must apologise for my tardiness 😩 I’ll learn to cope better from next week! 
Now I have to scuttle and write my year end musings. Some traditions must be kept! 😜
Tell me your fave Antipdoes skincare product!

It’s my first year doing retail and honestly, I’d never been so busy! The year-end rush is unreal! But busy is good, right? At least that’s what I tell myself 😂
While I pack up gift boxes of treats for doggies 🐶 (I’ve tied so many ribbons I’ve finally started to get it right!) #loccitanemalaysia makes it easy to shop for humans 😅 at experienceloccitane.com with their L’Occitane en Demande service. Place your order, and pick up in store or have it delivered. 
Had a bit of breather today and put together a little video. Blink and miss my little monster 🐶 helping me shop! Not sponsored but I did receive a gift from L’Occitane, for which my sun-exposed, dry dog-walking skin thanks you! 
Haven’t done any Christmas shopping this year. It has only just struck me that it’s but mere days away! 😨 Have you done yours?
