Phat Jewel
Manolo says, the true fashion it is found on the border between the trashy and the classic, and here, straddling that border is the Jewel of the Nile luxury sneaker from the Kimora Lee Simmons and the Baby Phat.
Yes, with the colorful anaconda and the diamonds and the 14 karat gold trim it is over the top and almost ridiculous, but it is also excessively pretty.
Thanks to the Manolo’s internet friend Wayne!

Is this the shoe that one wears while perched upon one’s golden toilet?
Cherchez la Kimora Lee Simmons for the answer.

Oh no! My size, she is already sold out!
And I wonder why they can’t be shipped to California? Could they be infested with rare snakeskin munchin’ fruit flies??

UGH sorry, but there is such a thing as trying too hard. The woman made diamond studded Hello Kitty watches for crying out loud. These shoes are equally ugly.
Miss V, they don’t ship to Ca because exotic leathers are banned there.

I have a site promoting urban fashion and i saw the shoes you were talking about from Baby phat the cost of that shoe is 1000.00 dollars. Kimora has not problem coming up with different styles for Baby phat products.

Boy, talk about diamonds on the soles - or at least sides - of her shoes.
But for $1,000.00 USD I expect my shoes to at least be made in Italy (or even Brazil), not China.

Don’t they owe more to Donatella Versace than Kimmora?
I also think that a shoe at that price point ought to be made in Italy or France.

What the hell? Those are ugly.
I think people who buy things like that are seriously insecure.
