Shoe Tuesday: PINK- not just for the laydeez
It’s that time again- put on your Shoe Tuesday hat, close the curtains, dance that special dance and lets enjoy another magic moment together.
Pink shoes for girls are awesome- there’s no argument there. Especially if they look like you made them by cutting a pattern out of a magazine and stapling some laces on the front.
Rock. On.
But pink shoes for boys? You’d think it wouldn’t work, but look-a-look-a
Pink Pony high tops- it’s a strong, strong look for the autumn, remember to leave the top two holes undone to show off a little ankle for the ladies.
Shortly after I took this photo the guy wearing them downed a bottle of whisky, knocked out a horse with one punch, then french-kissed a girl whilst definitely not thinking about sailors in crisp white uniforms.
If you liked that, you might like...
What’s all that valuable Swarovski crystal doing on the floor! And surely that’s just a girl with very hairly legs.
I don’t think I could stand it. If it was me I’d go up to him and say “does your little sister mind you stealing her shoes?”.
Let’s give credit where it’s due to the first pic.
What makes it so awesome is not the shoes alone. There’s the utterly mismatched sock, of the classic cut off tights style that I used to spend so much time staring at during my first year here on subway commutes.
Then there’s the subtly half-masted trousers that end with a kind of shirt cuff.
“What’s all that valuable Swarovski crystal doing on the floor! And surely that’s just a girl with very hairly legs.”
Was this picture taken in the Jing’an si subway staion? That all the swarovski crystal accessories being sold on the floor…
WoAi- I genuinely think those shoes look really cool, when I move back to England I’m going to really have to watch myself. Strutting down High Street in a pair of Capri Pants and v necked t-shirt down to my 4th rib isn’t going to end well in Manchester
Andy Best- you’re right, I was just too eager to get to the second picture- she deserves her moment in the sun!
Mo- yep just there, that guy has been selling his Swarovski knock offs for months now, and there’s always a crowd around them
I’m sure the girl in pic one had a pretty entertaining ensemble overall.
Clark- she was wearing the jacket from a sparkly blue evening suit, such as you might wear whilst doing the cancan in a Busby Berkeley musical number. Her pristine white formal shirt was offset by a spinning bowtie.
You’re turning into a soft southern ponce.
Me, I like the Pink Ponys. But I’m Amerikkkan anyways, so there’s no qualification of good taste there.
T- I know, I know, it’s going to cause me no end of trouble- I like those big glasses with no glass in them too.
How and where do you take these photos? Does your camera has a shoe radar? And is that Eva Longoria’s face on the pink shoes?
Miss Jane – the truth is far more disturbing. What Swiss does is conceal a camera inside a stuffed dog on wheels that he pulls around. He pretends that the dog is real, pets it, buys it treats, somehow hoping that everyone else thinks that the dog is real too, so that his dark secret is left uncovered. Yet the Authorities are on to him. His time is running out. The dog may have to be sent to a safe house. What will become of Shoe Tuesday? Tune in next week….
Miss Jane- I’m not good at spotting models faces, in fact Kate Moss was sat next to me at a kebab stall last weekend and I didn’t recognise her until she started spitting on the floor.
David- what total nonsense. What I do is have Emma walk 3 metres in front of my intended victim and make a high-pitched yipping noise. This distracts everyone around and I have plenty of time to crouch down, set up my miniature tripod, and take the shot.
Hey James look at my version of pink heels – http://lovelovehughugkisskiss.blogspot.com/2009/10/alexander-mcqueen.html
AM- blogspot is blocked in China so I can’t!
Pink was fashionable last year, but it was rather for tops (polos and so on).
I can’t wait to see some pink trousers, I only saw trendy guys in HK wearing carrot orange, it was already terrible.
The worst is to come, my friends, Brüno was only a premice.
