Better in Boots

It would be hard to imagine a less appropriate boot for this season.  The country’s in the middle of a recession and record-breaking cold and snowfall–and here comes Miu Miu’s Python, Swarovsky Crystal-embellished net-patterend cut-out boots!  Now these are selling, but it’s not too hard to imagine why they were reduced from the original staggering $4,300 to their current $1,720.  Artists certainly do not design to suit the economy or the weather, and this design is a sight to behold, but as far as something to actually wear, sometimes a boot can just go too far.  Now, in the event that I move to a tropical climate, become a woman of leisure, go back in time to age 20, and win the lottery…I would definitely consider these boots.  If I loved this oversized fishnet pattern but wanted something more wearable, like an ankle boot version, I’d check out these Sergio Rossi Swarovski Ankle Boots.  Otherwise, I can only imagine these on a platform, under glass in a footwear muesum.  They have a 4.5″ heel and are available at the outnet.
