You can pack snacks to go! Low-cal whole grain in left foot, nutritious nuts in the right.

Oh dear!! It’s a cross between ballerinas, platforms and clear-soled drag queen heels…

I’ll never forget a pair of shoes I saw when I was a kid: Very high clear plastic platforms with goldfish inside the heels.
I bet you could fit a fish in these, too, and dang if I’m not willing to try it.

Only one word will suffice: FUGLY!

Unspeakably ugly. My Prada shod feet are recoiling in horror.
Manolo, these belong in the Gallery of the Horrors.

OMG, those are beyond hideous. I’d better call my therapist before I start having flashbacks to the “Jellies” pumps my mother bought me in high school.

Look at the straps! If they’re digging in that much for someone so skinny, what about those of us who tend towards the zaftig?
September 15th, 2005 at 10:43 am
I dunno. There’s something pretty and graceful about the lines of the sole (from the side) that I like. I can’t imagine wearing them, though; the material (lucite, is it?) is just weird. They look space-agey to me, or trendy, and not entirely comfortable.

I just followed the link! OMG - she’s actually partering with Tupperware for this line! LOL. Okay, I’m slow; now I get it!

Soon to be found on eBay within a few months…

Wow, those straps are really digging into her feet! Ouch! I am usually a huge fan of the ballet-inspired shoe and/or the mary jane, but these… not so much.

Dude! Jellies! If those ever make a come back (especially in the scary aqua blue color), I’m ending my misery…

While we disagreed on whether one should wear white shoes after Labor Day, I think we can all agree that these should be worn NEVER.

I am strangely attracted to these.

Eeek! Ugly, and dangerous-looking too. There doesn’t seem to be anything to keep one from sliding all over the place on those hard plastic soles. A small misstep on some carpeted stairs, and….
And I wouldn’t let her walk on my hardwood floors, either!
September 15th, 2005 at 6:02 pm
OMG. These are by far some of the ugliest I’ve seen. :(

These shoes they are very…clear. Very clear. And wonderful for the vinaigrette-tossed salads.
September 15th, 2005 at 10:25 pm
When the straps and soles are removed, they are really quite nice… lol
September 16th, 2005 at 12:41 am
I don’t know what you guys are talking about, I LOVE these shoes! I mean, I don’t think I could walk in them, but how important is that really?
September 16th, 2005 at 3:09 am
Do they burp when you walk?
September 16th, 2005 at 12:22 pm
I don’t know whether they burp but there is no way that these will keep your feet fresh.

Karla took my words/thoughts, precisely! The movie was “I’m gonna get you sucka.” Good times… goldfish… lol too funny. I thought the same thing.

There is nothing attractive about these shoes. The tight strap reminds me of my grandmother, who was overweight, and insisted on shoes 2 sizes too small… So, altho feet don’t accumulate much fat, they managed to look bloated in her shoes for the last 15 years of her life. God bless Ethel. Hey! If anyone has a picture of the shoes with LIVE goldfish in the heels, PLEASE contact me! I might even send you $ for a pic. larryharrismusic@hotmail.com ;Thankyou!

Forget the tupperware…the guy in the background is wearing Birkenstock Ramses…not available in the US, but oh-so-cool!
