plastic shoes
I cannot decide if I like these shoes or not, they’re on Gilt Groupe right now. I do love Vivienne Westwood, and jelly shoes bring back memories (ok, they bring back memories of being made fun of by some nasty sixth graders because my neon green jelly sandals did not match my home-made rainbow fairy costume, but jelly shoes are now super retro cool and those mean girls are probably fat and married to some knuckle-dragging mountain man and living in a double-wide in Orick, so there.) Anyways, do I love these or hate them?!?!
Plastic shoes?

well, its a tricky thing, and I understand your hesitation. This trend is appealing to me because the shoes look so clean and minimal – no lines, no embellishments. However, that is the only plus side I can come up with. I too remember the days of jellies and frankly would not want to be reminded of them every time I look down at my feet. Secondly, because I remember those days, I recall that my feet do not like the feel of plastic on my feet. Ok, I just thought of another plus side though – that the colors can be so vibrant, its almost like you’re wearing drops of candy on your feet….. hold the phone – thats a brilliant idea! Shoes made of candy! I’ll get working on that right now!
