Pimp your pumps
July 10th, 2006
Wearing high-heels in warm weather is an imperfect art. Heels are way more comfortable when you have a barrier between your foot and the shoe, but summertime isn’t exactly conducive to tights. Then, there are those half-assed shoe liner things, which always manage to creep out of my shoe in some unsightly manor.
Enter my latest obsession, the Minisock by Delphine Murat, a shoe liner that’s actually supposed to show. The various designs, which slip onto the foot and adorn the ankle, are sort of like interchangeable accessories for your shoes. They are pricier than typical shoe liners (about $20 or so), but when you consider the fact that they prevent blisters while giving an old pair of shoes an entirely new look, they are well worth the price.

This is the greatest idea. Why did I not think of it? These will sweep the scene, especially when someone starts knocking them off. Target do you hear me?

I looked at the website, these things are pretty cool. I think the pictures of real feet give a better idea of what they will look like.
