platform slippers

by Karen Blanchard
17 October 2010

Boots: Jeffrey Campbell (LF) Also available on Solestruck! Bag: LF (clearance sale). Fedora: Trash and Vaudeville. Striped hoodie: Yesstyle.com. Remember the video I made wearing it —>here?. Striped jumper: H&M. Vintage necklace: Foley & Corinna.

Please don’t try these boots on. You’ll get sucked into the vortex of ‘crap. I should not have tried these on.’
Ever since seeing preview pics of them in June, the seed was planted. The sales assistant said she wore hers all day. Hmm….sales pitch talk. After over an hour of me walking in them (I wore them right out of the shop), I realized she probably wasn’t joking. They are slippers with heels attached and yes, they run true to size.
They come in a zillion colours (about 20?) but this sort of periwinkle denim-esq blue sold me.

    Jeez, the minute like thee minute I saw ur shoes, I got this funny feeling in the pit of my stomach that told me if I do nothing else today, I will find those shoes in CHICAGO. I’m probably going to have to take a break from this blog, I feel overwhelmed by the need to own these lol. And I absolutely LOVE the Tory Burch necklace from yesterday *sighs*

    NO! YOU-GOT-THEM! I-“HATE”-YOU!:P

    In solestruck, they don’t have these boots on blue-navy. The most similar color is purple, and they’re out of stock. Sigh, I’d love to be able to go to the LF store. I’ll try to contact them and IMPLORE them to send me the boots to Spain….:(

    You’re outfit is GREAT. I’d like to help you with the 5 favorite outfits, but now I don’t have time (because I must study) and is SO DIFFICULT TO CHOOSE ONLY 5!!;)

    Muaaaaaa

    they’re a great color! shoes that high normally scare me, but if they really were like slippers then i’m totally in. 🙂

    i wander, i wonder

    om my goodness, now that you say they are “like slippers” with heels attached I want them EVEN more. i love the taupe suede color and that’s the color that I want… but that blue one looks amazing on you! 🙂

    i was in lf last week and all i could do was think of you and rumi. the blue litas are my favourite too. i didn’t try them on though, just for the reason you stated. i’d get sucked in and my guy would not be seen with me in those shoes, he’s not a big fan of extreme platforms even though i’d probably be able to walk in them better them most of my shoes b/c they’re so light. you wear them beautifully.
