Extreme Stilettos by Gianmarco Lorenzi
Posted on February 25th, 2010 by galligator under GeneralI love heels. And while they are a minority in my collection, I am no stranger to stilettos. I have been wearing heels, including stilettos, off and on for the better part of two decades and generally don’t have any issues finding my balance on a typical stiletto heel.
However, these double-platform marvels by Gianmarco Lorenzi give me certain pause.
Just looking at these makes me wince in fearful anticipation of taking that inevitable wrong step. I can easily imagine the aftermath: One injured shoe-blogger planted pathetically on the couch with an iced-wrapped ankle – mentally berating herself for believing she could successfully carry these off.
Ladies, these are for expert heel aficionados only. No amateurs need apply.
(Available in limited sizes @ http://www.biondiniparis.com from €314-€1079 depending on the style.)

Ok, wow was the only thing I was able to utter when I saw the first pair. Gorgeous. I would be a bit afraid to walk in them, but see no problem just putting them on to admire, lol.
