Shoe 10: I'm an Robot...In Stilettos

Next Halloween when you're deciding what to wear to the big party and you're tired of being a cat or a nurse, be a robot.
Why else would you wear these eccentric stilettos that scream costume?
These multi colored sky high heels that not only protect your ankles from road burn, but also allow you to put on that bright yellow rain jacket and for the first time match.
But hey, to each her own.
Besides you could always break them out again for the Transformers 3 premier...

I'm Ready For My Close Up

Lady GaGa is known for her eclectic attire so it comes as no surprise that she would wear shoes directly from the runway in her everyday life or, as the photograph depicts, for work.
But what is it about celebrity women that they choose to wear high heels even when going out to get a cup of coffee.
Have we created a world for them in which they always have to be ready to impress, always have to be dressed according to their status as influential women?
Are high heels part of a costume that women wear, a part that they play day after day because they want to be taken seriously and know that that requires following the rules?
How many pairs of high heels do you own? Do you wear them to the mall, to the park, while walking your dog?
Are you always ready for your own close up?

What would you do for your heels?

You love your high heels. You love how you look in them, the way people stare at you when you step into the room on towering platforms, the comments from your girlfriends about how much they envy you the shoes you're able to pull off.
The pain?
Well it comes with the territory - you know how to look good, how to be respected as a professional woman.
The pain is worth it. Right?
But would you have surgery so that you could wear high heels all the time, so that you could always be taken seriously and looked at with admiration?
The Times of India are reporting that; "It has been observed that women are undergoing filler injections to plump up the underside of their feet, thus filling them out and providing padding inside the foot to relieve the pain that comes from wearing high heels," said Satish Bhatia, dermatologist and skin surgeon, Lady Ratan Tata Medical and Research Centre.
The good news is that the pain of wearing your favorite pair of stilettos almost disappears. The bad news is - the injections only lasts 6 months or so.
That means you only need surgery twice a year.
So the only question remaining is what would you do for your favorite pair of killer high heels?
Plump up the soles of your feet or trade them in for a nice safe pair of flats?

Shoe 9: High Without The Heel

Antonio Bernardi's $1,800 platform heels are missing one of their essential pieces - the heel.
The woman who chooses to wear these shoes has to have a perfect sense of balance so as not to go teetering over while attempting to move from point A to point B.
Don't worry though the ankle straps make it so she won't lose her very expensive designer pumps when she inevitably tries to walk using her whole foot and fails...
What do you think? Do you have the balance or the daring to pull these shoes without heels off?

Shoe 8: Christian Louboutin Suede Over-the-Knee Boots

Look mom! No pants.
Woman can now double their shoe fund because they no longer have to wear full pants just shorts or a skirt or a long top...
Its fine though because the independent woman who chooses to wear these shoes can now go exploring and not worry about cuts showing up on her legs, or shaving, or.... hiking boots (Gasp)!
She may break a heel though.
What do you think? Have boots become the new, much more expensive, legging?

To Heel

'Heel' is a command given by people to control their dogs. It means sit or stay. In other words, it is a means of saying obey me...
Who are you obeying when you slip on a pair of heels?
Are you obeying the unspoken social contract that we all enter into as part of society or are you just trying to quiet your inner fashionista?
