CHICAGO -- At School...University of Chicago, Hyde Park




It seems as though a riveting concept has come upon the world of fashion. Take note of the above picture. The heel, being close to the ball of the foot as opposed to the heel, mirrors what came waltzing onto the runway at the Spring 2008 Marc Jacobs show. The young lady (pictured second) did express comfort in wearing these gladiatoresque Puma sandals so even though structurally it looks off-kilter, Marc and Puma may be tapping into warped sense of comfort in women that goes beyond six inch stilettos (I bite my tongue)!

Omg! I didn't know you had updated so much! I'm HAPPYYYYYYYY!!!

Okay, those reverse-heel shoes are definitely collectibles! Not exactly wearable just place them on a shelf. I heart em though!


Those Pumas just remind me of McQueen's collabo with Puma that was inspired by human anatomy! You should check them out. WIKID. I'd wear sneakers out again for that reason.

Let me know where I can peep McQueen's collaboration with Puma! His recent fall 2008 collection was too good...he really came to the fore. Funny, the film "The Other Boleyn Girl" just came out (watch it...it's a informative and overall great flick) and much of his collection drew inspiration from Victorian and old English fashion. His collection could literally have served as the costume for the film!
