And yes, they even take me forward to so-called futuristic styles — whenever fashion is predicted for the future, why is it that it inevitably involves mirrors and metallics? To see what I mean, catch this video of fashion in 2000, as predicted in 1939.
Were they way off? They were going somewhere with the shoes and pants predictions for women. Interesting, nonetheless! Now, back to the shoes — all 4.5″ of them (a wonderful height).
Encrusted mirrors, these heels would flash and catch the light with every step you took. And the silvery finish is fairly neutral, so you could wear them with a lot of ensembles! Plus, you could catch your reflection when necessary throughout the night — completely practical too! Come ON — how could you not say yes to these shoes? Found only at Net-a-Porter, these shoes are a splurge at $1,150 — but done right, and you can make a festive, strong statement for years with these slip-on glass slippers!

Okay, at first I wasn’t sure, but I took a closer look and indeed, it’s a yes!
