Lady Gaga’s Highest Heels EVER

So a bunch of websites are aghast at these platform boots Lady Gaga was wearing as she departed the airport in Korea last week, calling them “the highest heels ever” and the “world’s highest heels”:

Lady Gaga departs the Gimpo International Airport in Seoul, Korea on April 28, 2012

But we all know that’s SO not true. Not only because THIS is officially the world’s highest heel but also because these platform boots are tame by Lady Gaga standards!

Are they still shocked by ...Read more

Walk on the Wild Side in the New Shades of the ‘Eye Doll’ from Luichiny

When I spotted the new leopard print and giraffe options of the ‘Eye Doll’ from Luichiny at Heels I knew that I had to share it. I almost gasped with excitement when I started to examine the ‘Eye Doll’ in leopard with deep red trim. I could see these paired with my favorite black dress or even distressed jeans and a simple black T. The giraffe color choice is equally as fun and funky. Of course, there are several other ...Read more

5 Leopard Print Heels Under $50

In honor of my current (and likely permanent) leopard print obsession I decided to track down a few pair of leopard print heels that wouldn’t drain ones entire shoe budget. Leopard print can be tricky – it can look cheap or gaudy if it’s not designed well. I came across 5 leopard print heels for under $50 that I’d actually wear. I already own two of them, and will probably add the other three to my collection soon. All of ...Read more

The ‘Hi Track’ from Jeffrey Campbell: Are You Bold Enough?

When I spotted these statement making shoes from Jeffrey Campbell I was instantly awe struck. Do I love them? Do I hate them? Either way, I definitely appreciate the design and artistic element of the ‘Hi Track’ from Jeffrey Campbell at SoleStruck.

What do you think? Are you feeling these outrageous heels? Or, are they way too much? ...Read more

Which 6″ High Nude Platform Pump Would You Go For? Christian Louboutin Vs. Brian Atwood

I checked out the new shoe arrivals at Saks Fifth Avenue today and these two uncannily similar looking shoes are among them. They’re in a very basic design so I guess these two shoes looking so much like each other isn’t that much of a coincidence. But for people who are used to paying these prices for shoes, I wonder what they would consider as a better buy?

Here’s the first shoe, the nude patent leather version of the Christian Louboutin Highness:
