Dammit Plumcake! Now I’m really really depressed that I am unemployed! Those shoes made me feel things that my momma told me good girls never feel and I found out that bad girls always enjoy!
Jennie, If it makes you feel better it’s quite possible that’s the only pair that exists! Couture showed in the end of January, and as you know, couture doesn’t go into production. The shoes MIGHT get made –GOD I hope so– otherwise I’m going to have to track down JPG’s shoe guy and hold his ass hostage until he cobbles me up some bright green kicks.
BSAG, I believe those are either traditional Irish ghillies or a variation on the ghillies theme. You can pick up a nice pair for under $60 most places that sell Irish dancing equipment.

I’m pretty much sold, just on the artistic integrity of the heel alone.

Nice spot Marjorie, I thought they were ghillies but you’re right, they might have a more substantial heel.
