Oof. Like at least she looks better with her hair out of her face I guess? It makes her look only 35 (in Real Housewives years) now.
How the hell do you walk in those shoes? I lived in platforms in the mid-late 90s and even I would have broken my neck in those things at the time (and would definitely break my neck in them now). No shade but, there is a reason why pole dancers wear shoes like that and I think it's because they don't have to walk far in them.

I only own one pair of flat shoes, I walk on stuff like that every day (minus the platform, I'm tall enough, I just really like heels. I don't think I have anything under 8cm) I guess it's habit ... and also true, I don't do much walking, according to my Iphone, I struggle to make 4000 steps everyday XD
Anyways
I'll never understand how a 17 year old constantly manages to look like a middle aged housewife. That outfit needs to go back to the 80s where it belongs, it makes her look like a 40 something desperate to recapture her younger years with "young, colourful and fashionable" style XD
The highlights look super "dated" also, like something we did in the late 90s, which doesn't help making her look young and fresh.
Damn that girl needs a better stylist

Whoever said she looks like Elizabeth Perkins was spot on. I can't unsee it.

No shade but, there is a reason why pole dancers wear shoes like that and I think it's because they don't have to walk far in them. As a former pole dancer (10 years) my feet didn’t hurt after a while. The instep in platforms do not put so much weight on the ball of the foot. Some shoes have padding. Depending on the size of the bar or club, a lot of walking can be done, because in one state that I worked, we had to walk around the bar for tips, and to hustle private dances and champagne rooms. Then there are stairs. Going up and down to the stage area, to the dressing room. I walked a lot. |

My feet never hurt in platforms, and in fact, I thought they were more comfortable than most of my shoes, but pretty much all of them had some semblance of arch support. Even the sandals had enough straps that your feet would be in pretty much one place. I just don't think I could have ever walked in MBB's shoes because there's nothing more than a strap at her toes and the ankle and it just looks like it would be easy to slide right off of them. I did fall once in a parking lot in a pair of platforms that were a half size too big but had been on sale so I made a bad choice there. The only things I hated about those shoes were trying to drive in them or walking across grass. |

I have a pair of Red not Dead platforms boots & they are one of my most comfortable pairs of footwear (before I doubled my body weight!) I also had a pair of original 1950s stilettos in the 80s with a 3” heel & could dance, walk & run for a bus in them. I think it’s what you are used to. That said how old is this woman? 35? 17? Or 42? What ever it is her dress sense sucks. Some of the clothes from the 90s need to stay there!!! For reference, we *never* wore such uglay footwear in the 90s. We would rave in fields so boots with everything. |

The only things I hated about those shoes were trying to drive in them or walking across grass. Yeah, I see what you mean about her shoes. I’d just wear sticky padded insoles. Those types of shoes are not fun with foot sweat. About driving, I always have a pair of flip flops in my car in the summer of I cannot drive in certain shoes. If flip flops aren’t your thing, just keep a pair of comfortable shoes to drive in, then change when you get to your destination. |

I wonder how the quality of them are, compared to today‘s stilettos. Raving in the field sounds so fun right about now. I‘m going to look up Red not Dead boots. |

I wonder how the quality of them are, compared to today‘s stilettos. Raving in the field sounds so fun right about now. I‘m going to look up Red not Dead boots. Apologies it’s Red or Dead - UK company/designers was a husband & wife team Hemingway I think? You can still get the brand but I don’t know if it’s the same company of if a conglomerate bought the name. Some of the original brand have a manufacture date on the inside of the boot/shoe.  my boots looked very like this except 0.5-1” sole. I still have them, I have a thing for nice footwear. Very comfortable- I don’t know how they did it as the inside sole doesn’t feel cushioned to the touch. I didn’t wear them very often but they are so high that I’m easily 6ft in them (so 4” heels???) makes getting served at the bar a doddle! ETA- nightclub boots not rave boots. You don’t wear heels in a field! my 1950s stilettos held up well considering I practically lived in them, and yes, I think I still have those babies too. They belonged to my friend’s mum - who was like a mum to me; she pasted away when we were 20. Very sudden. My friend looks so like her. Quality isn’t great, the sole is 1950s plastic & they are 70 years old now….  |
