So I'm sure it's already apparent but I have an OBSESSION with shoes. I could literally open up my very own shoe museum. There is just something special about the perfect shoe that ties an entire outfit all together! That's why I cannot wait for spring... so I can throw my boots aside already!
There are certain shoes that I buy for aesthetic reasons... they're just so delicate, different or colorful! I have to admit that they usually stay in my closet because I'm too afraid to ruin them... silly I know!
Here are some fabulous photos I found of "Shoe Art":
We all know these McQueen babies! |
You also need to check out the Virtual Shoe Museum and the Bata Shoe Museum... they're fabulous. I've actually been to the Bata Shoe Museum in Toronto, Canada and it's awesome!
What do you think of these? For the feet or for the museum? Do you have a favorite pair of shoes you refuse to wear outside and "ruin"?
KIU,

i think if i had them i would just put them on a mantle to stare at.. or frame them in a window box or something hahaha.
Lovely to see all those pictures!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of a post I did a few months back with shoes that are intended either as art or comedy. You might enjoy them.

I'd say they are more suited for the museum - the designs just don't translate into everyday society. That's not to say that they aren't gorgeous though; the McQueen's...swoon!! :)
ReplyDeleteTrès belles chaussures!!! Surtout McQueen!!! Biz

love all of them.
ReplyDeletethe most eyecatching ones are of course the MCQ, the pair with flowers inside the transparent soles
and the last one, horselike pair
great post love !
I love it, the last ones look so cool.
ReplyDeleteDo you collect shoes like this :), cause if you did, I'd understand you keeping them in your closet!
great blog,

For the museum that’s for sure. I think I could meet the devil in these shoes coz I would fall to my death. I’ve seen similar pictures of such shoes on some website before and I thought they were really cool,, just not wearable.
ReplyDeleteLoLz... I do know of friends who buy designer shoes for thousands just to keep and admire them at home.
Great dear...
ReplyDeletethose McQueen should be for museum too! I saw once Dr. Martens made by artists, that was the best thing I ever saw... Really inspiring
kisss
the hoof heels are outrageous! love all the shoes. I always overwear my favorites and destroy the heel but I figure might as well enjoy them!
