flipper with heel anyone?





These High Tide Heels by Australian designer Lisa Carney have been around for a little while, but I have to say, they're completely new to me.Really? A flipper, with a heel? What is going on in the world? Imagine for a minute how challenging, graceless and completely not sexy it is to walk in flippers. Now add what appears to be a 4-inch rubber heel. My stars. I think you'd be better off wrapping your legs together Splash mermaid style and hopping around.To be fair, it's unclear to me if these shoes were ever meant for real life. Carney used them in a runway show, so they were one of those fashion torture devices meant solely for models. But check out the picture above! They're now on sale, somewhere, for actual people to purchase.If you do buy them, please, please, please send me a picture of you wearing them. Or, perhaps a video of you walking in them? please3!;))
