man, i love these balenciaga shoes. i know they're crazy, but i would totally wear them if i could shell out that cash.

those would be $7,000 balenciaga gladiator heels. yes, seriously.

I think they're kinda cool?

Hahahahah! You know she got them free. If she would sell those, that's a little more money to tide her over until she gets a writing credit on her next album.

At least….they….match her outfit???

Oh who am I kidding, Rhianna looks like a fierce, hot, tranny mess (shout out to Ferocia Coutura)

LOVE the shoes! But then again I like to wear really crazy clothes.

i thought they were more like 10k and a waitlist item. ridic.

These do match, even though she's not wearing one of those robot dresses Balenciaga makes.

Oh I know they match, and really I'm not one to talk. I'm no fashionplate. I more often than not am dressed like a 12 year old boy. DINOSAURS!!!!!

Well, I wear shiny hotpants with rollerskates, and I think I'm all the rage.

again, I'll say.. ALL HAIL SARAH! are your hotpants neon colored?

Do they make them any other way?

Again… *blushing, tiara sluttily awry*…

have you bejeweled them and made them spangly??

No, I'm a purist. Besides, I broke my Bedazzler fixing the damn tiara.

sequins! Do you have sequins on them!?

FRINGE!!! SEQUINS!!! RHINESTONES!!! JAZZ HANDS!!!!!

DINOSAURS!!!!

now you're talking

(relieved) I like - nay, love - the shoes despite myself.

Well i seem to be the minority here, but i absolutly loathe gladiator sandals.

Kate!! *Binary High Five*!!

um, i love the shoes, hate the outfit. I'd wear a simple black dress with them. I'd totally rock them.

Do you know how many transvestite zebras had to die to make those things?

Six. Because they're made out of the hare at the very base of the mane, as its the softest and still has the black and white striped coloration.

kate! i'm with you on the gladiator shoes. nor do i think they match - the whole get up is just too busy. and you know when you have to pee and you kick off your shoes and run to the bathroom? not happenin my friend.

Your shoes have to come off to go to the potty?

I didn't mean that in a snarky way. I'm truly puzzled.

I'm with you Sarah, I'm able to pee with shoes on, so I don't get the necessity. Not that I like the shoes.

I'm gladiatored out. That gold shiny helmet with the red plume and those brass arm guards, not to mention the hoplite shield were so Spring '08.

I do know that Britney Spears is a big fan of shoeless pottying.

Maybe they know something we don't? Or maybe they pee through their toes.

Toe Pee-ers. I don't like to associate with such filth. I also have a foot phobia, so toe peeing is like the equivalent of Donkey Punches to people that are members of PETA.

(don't worry folks, I don't know what that means either)

For some reason when I look at those photos the song Half Breed springs to mind. Someone give Rihanna a feather, she's a Cherokee.

hahaha… i am definitely not on top of these posts! i spend a LOT of time at home and when i walk in in high heels having to pee like a race horse in the kentucky derby with a glue truck behind it (copyright some movie i don't remember) i kick of my heels and race on in. like, in my own house. where it's clean mind you. now that no ones listening……

Lava, it makes sense to kick off your heels when you come home, whether you have to pee or not. Thanks for putting it into perspective.

balenciaga shoes… they are half the time gorgeous and half the time a hot mess. these are a hot mess.

i dont like them. and rihanna generally annoys the crap out of me. this is a no for me.
