Don’t they know that the majority of women out there can’t teeter and totter on 3″+ heels without falling!??!
Saw these beauties while I was trolling up and down Ste-Catherine.
BUKALA RED HEELS
The red is more ruby red in person. Less washed out.
They almost made it home with me (I was THISCLOSE to buying them), until I realized:
- Where the hell would I wear them? Work? In 3″ heels? ARE YOU MAD, FB?
- Where could I only stand & sit in them?
I can barely walk in these, as they are really at the maximum limit of my powers. - Why do they cost $135? *sigh* I can’t spend that kind of money on decorative shoes
JHILL GUESS HEELS (Zippered back!!!)
Same with these ones. They almost made it home on my feet, until I said:
“Nah.. I can’t really see a purpose in buying them, and the L.A.M.B. version was MUCH hotter with the zip at the back.”
Why? Because they were so very L.A.M.B. a la Dichen Lachman from Dollhouse
In case you’re wondering, the shoes are by Gwen Stefani, called “Tammy” for $190 (ON SALE) available at Zappos.com in sizes 5.5 or 9.5 only.
You’re (sort of) welcome.

I know what you mean! Those heels are super cute, but I could never wear those. I can pull off a three-inch heel in a boot, but those are so skinny, there’s no way I could do it in a normal heel.

Chinese Laundry has a nicer knock-off of the Lamb’s ala Dichen… I wish they were in black though because I bet I could wear a 9.5….

But they have a platform! So they’ll be comfy to walk in
My minimum for work is 3 inches. Anything lower, and i’d have to get all my pants hemmed (which I find really annoying). Ideally i’d like to wear flats to work every day, but some of my work pants just don’t look good with flats. I end up looking short and stout. Even though i’m 1.69 cm. Just have short legs I guess!

Sigh.
