i'm so/so. i'm not instantly drawn to them, but they don't scream cheap either. i think they're one of those things that when worn right would look awesome, but in the hands of the wrong person would be horrible.
ok, so i looked at the auction and they're high, but what if i only wore them with long jeans? still stripperish? i'm on the fence too, but for the price...

hmm. they remind me a bit of the SM magnolias. i think the pattern and style is cute but it's the thickness of the platform that is throwing me. they definitely have a very 70's/disco vibe with the heel height and the platform. i could see them working better with pants - like some wide legged white trousers. i think if you paired them with a skirt or fitted capris that would accentuate the stripper factor.

I think those are the shoes Marcia Brady wishes she could pull off. But I have confidence in you, shopgirl82, I would love to see what you do with them!

I like them! For some reason I like the 2nd pic colors better. They are probably the same shoe but there is more green in the 2nd pic. I think you could totally make these look great without going the stripper route. The colors are great. I think you will get more use out of them that you expect this spring.
I loooooove the print and the heel and *almost* everything about the shoe, except for the platform. I'm just not a platform person in general though. But other than that, I think they're super cute.
