One item that I have seen all over my fashion magazines is The Yves St. Laurent SS09 patent leather ankle mesh boots. In my eyes they resemble a cage. I saw it as a hamster torturing device.
However, I have to admit that one of the reasons why I adore fashion is because it's not practical. Think about the following...imagine walking with these boots in NYC and all of a sudden it starts raining.... or better yet, imagine walking with these when it's 98 degrees fahrenheit. So so not practical!!
On the other hand I do see the creativity in this boot. I can also see where the inspiration came from, The Eiffel Tower.
I would like to point out that within this same collection, I found a shoe that embodies creativity, the Eiffel Tower inspiration, high fashion, and practicality.
I wonder why this shoe wasn't featured in any of the fashion magazines?

I think the second version is sexy as oppose to the first which seems to SCREAM to be seen though is lacks practicality...
sexy doesn't really need to be practical.
I am not a fashion person, but I like those boots for some reason. I am not saying that Nike should follow with a pair of sneakers like that, but in the right setting with the right outfit, those boots could be special.
A.T.
I am really feeling the second pair! I can think of a few outfits that can show off those...
