Photo Hunt: Pointed


I'm normally not one for pointy shoes but the feel and comfort of this caramel Liz Claiborne mules totally dispelled all my doubts. I love wearing these mules with a pair of jeans. They make me feel a little bit country and a little bit rock 'n roll.:-D A mule, by the way, refers not only to an offspring of a male donkey and a female horse but also a backless shoe.

In the middle of a retail therapy moment, I bought this hand-embroidered Italian-made pointed mules at Neiman Marcus. And I almost peed with joy when I saw it was on sale at half the price! The price was still stiff for a peso-earner like me but as I said, it was a retail therapy moment. When I got home, I realized that they make my feet look like long pointy canoes. I have never worn them out. Fritz, my doggie, was trying to put them on before I took this photo (hehe).

Those are pretty stylish looking pointed shoes you've got.
I doubt I'll be able to stand or walk in them for long being the clumsy me :P

I actually love both but I'm partial to earth colors so I'd pick the first one. Yes, they look great on jeans.

Great choice! I am a short person and feel out of place in high heels, even though i can look right into my hubby's eyes! LOL!

you know what? I have seen these type of shoes (the nice black ones) in a painting done by the Dutch artist Vermeer! Or was that another artist? So goes my Lola Basyang memory again! :-( But I'm sure i have seen it in one of those Dutch paintings!

What a great idea-- pointed shoes! People are quite creative today. Your idea was delightful.

I wanted to post shoes too but I don't have pointed ones...those are really nice ones!

And did Imelda only have 1060 really? hehe.

Have a great weekend.

I like your brown pair too. And I agree with you that when you pair them up with a pair of jeans, they can be darn sexy! Grrrr!! Hahahaha :D

Have a nice weekend! :)

actually i love the color of this shoe. I have always tried to find camel skin color shoes, but haven't find the perfect color variation yet.
