Jennifer Garner and Rumer Willis in Yves Saint Laurent “Palais” Strappy Pumps

I like shoes that offer a different flavor on the plate. And in case you haven’t noticed, I like featuring odd looking ones that are simply out if this world too.

Today however, I am going to show you a rather unique pair that is very wearable and simply fabulous. Judging by the title I used for this article, you probably already know what it is – the YSL “Palais” strappy platforms pumps, as seen on Jennifer Garner‘s feet in the below pictures. She styled them with a Stella McCartney Fall 2010 ensemble consisting of a fuchsia satin tunic and a white silk-organza skirt.

Jen wore her pink pair to the annual Pink Party held last month. I admit, I didn’t like the skirt she wore, but the rest, especially the hot pink shoes, were amazing. In fact, you can easily forgive her for wearing such a hideous skirt once you see the pair on her feet.

Demi Moore’s daughter, Rumer Willis, was also spotted wearing the black version to the screening of the movie RED the other day.

So, what do you think of these fresh babies from YSL? They look a lot like a cross between booties and double strapped Mary Jane pumps; not your usual, but definitely striking.

If you like these pumps, Nordstrom has them in a hot royal blue color called Bluette!

I think I prefer the hot colors. It just has more oomph and kick to it. How about you? Would you go for the brights as well?
