Shoe? Or Sock?

Not since Crocs arrived on the scene has a shoe trend so upset me.


Luichiny Annabel sweater boot






Is it a shoe? Or is it a sock? Make up your mind, for fuck’s sake.





Stella McCartney 'Adhara' Legging Boot




From whence cometh this shoe/sock, boot/sock combo?





Anthropologie’s 'Clematis' shoe





And who is the bastard responsible?





Mark Jacobs ballet suede sock bootie (SOCKS ATTACHED TO FLATS!)… $315.00US/£162!

  8. Ahem. I can remember wearing ankle socks with platform shoes when I was about twelve. I should say in my defence that it was a fashion craze in our school so it wasn't really my fault.

    No one over the age of twelve should wear socks and high heels though.

  9. Not like me to be practical - but do you put them in the washing machine or use boot polish and elbow grease?

  10. AWA: Fashion footwear fuckery most foul.

    GOG: Amen.

    Gog has spoken.

    BRAD: Try putting a sock in it.

    BEAST: Whilst your knickers are down around your ankles, ask Frobi to snap a photo of your arse and send it to me pronto.

    TONY: And don’t let me catch you wearing mittens with idiot strings.

    KNUDSEN: Do you blog from the shower, too?

    SID: I could see Piggy in them if it weren’t for the fact that his craggy, misshapen trotters would poke holes through the fabric.

    BETTY: How do you feel about women wearing fishnet suspender socks with heels?

    KAZ: Shoes and practical in the same breath?

    We need to talk.

    IVD: Round them up along with the Crocs wearers and send them to Shoe Hell.

  15. Maybe the target market are those amputees with prosthetic legs...or people who couldn't be bothered to shave their legs...or figure out how to match shoes and socks...

  16. I actually quite like them!

    Do they do them in a grey sock/brown leather sandal combo.

    For to wear to the beach, you know

  17. That is surely one of the signs of the apocalypse.

    I know, because it was in the Demi Moore movie.

  18. Those Stella Macartney monstrosities need banning.

    Stella looks like an alien with her weird oval head. She needs banning too.

  19. DINAH: If I see anyone wearing these, I'll have to make a citizen's arrest.

    SMUNTY: Actually, I picture you in a pump.

    T-BIRD: Or could it be IVD's Apocalypse Oven?!

    GARFY: I'd ban Heather Mills first.

    Then we can work on Macca and his spawn.

  21. MANUEL: With an arse as hot as yours, you can wear whatever you damn well please.

    PEEVISH: Pair the shoes with shoulder pads and you're "power dressing."

  22. Manuel - 'I have many jumpers with shits included'?

    Really? Some of my underpants come like that, but then I buy mine second hand from the Help The Aged charity shop.

    ReplyDelete
  23. SMUNTY: Does any of the money made at the Help The Aged charity shop actually go to helping Piggy and Tazzy?
