Platform is The New Flat

Ladies, take a deep breath and let me show you one of the must-have items for this Spring and Summer 2009. Forget the gladiators or ballet flats which had been one of the hot stuff for spring/summer 2009. Just leave them rest in peace in your closet simply because it’s about time to get a hotter one. Enough with flat shoes and flip flops, now we dare you to wear this fabulous platform for the next seasons. Top designers have loads of mesmerizing shoes to offer that women just can’t resist. And don’t be frightened to wear it, the platform at the front of the shoe combined with the chunky heels will make it a bit more balanced and comfortable to walk, and also give you such bold and edgy look. Another choice, platform at the front of the shoe combined with the stiletto heels would definitely make you look taller and sexier.

So, which one(s) do you want for the upcoming spring and summer?

to yusti: im aware that you’re always ahead of time just by looking at your fashion line tya et tiara ! it looks totally awesome.. love it

but please do also check FD’s archive under SHOES, you would see how many times we have already featured these platforms, sky-high heels, or quirky heels on our blog since a couple of seasons ago..
This post is only to emphasize again, one more time, about this trend thx for dropping us a line

A girl gotta do what a girl gotta do..and what a girl gotta do,she’ll do best in stiletto!
But really…platform???has to agree with yusti there..I’ve had two of these for the longest time..this even gone for sale in shoe store..means it’s out of season..isn’t it??

platform shoes are waaaay too creepy for me!! reminds me of those Gosh shoes during high school time..hiiiiii!! especially when seeing those with (sorry) short legs but still insisted on wearing them! arrrghhh…just find it too overrated sometimes.. don’t get me wrong though, i too have a pair of short legs, hehehhe… ;p
