I really want to be able to like these shoes.
I mean, the shape is great. The colour? Fabulous. The stripes on the sole and platform? Love ’em:
But. That platform. Kind of looks like the wearer of the shoe stepped in a big puddle of glue, and then allowed it to dry, doesn’t it? Or at least, it does to me. Without it, I’d have been all over these like a rash. With it, I’m having to consign them to the “good shoes ruined” pile. I hate it when that happens.

🙁 What a shame otherwise as you say they would be to die for! @Shoeperwoman

With the first platform (with stripes), simply great! With the second one, no way! Yes, ruined shoes – in my opinion, others may like, of course.
That platform is hideous. Love the rest of the shoe though.
I’m not crazy about this pair but she also has a pair of blue boots with fringes and a sole like this one…I love them
It looks like the manufaturer made a mistake, so they just tacked some plastic to the front. I’m totally with you Amber: when good shoes go bad!
The sad thing is that by doing too much the designer has killed the shoes.
Weird platform soles always draw my attention – the Gianmarco Lorenzi ‘sandwich’ soles are awesome in the black/red combination. I won’t link to a picture in case your spam filter rejects me but if you do a Google Images search for ‘gianmarco lorenzi double platform pumps’ & look about half way down the page, you’ll see them. It’s as if an unsuspected red shoe was set open by a carniverous black pump.
