Grocery or Gabbana?: More shoes I found on Facebook

I can't help it. I'm apparently a social network advertiser's afternoon delight. I see the shoe ads over and over and over and get pissed because they're there all customized-like and taunting me. Then four minutes later, I'm clicking like I have a J-lo shoe budget and a Kimora closet to hold them all.

Now that you've weighed in on whether these gold numbers are Hoochy or Hawt, play along with another gold pair that desperately need your attention.  Or at least your judgment. Feel free to be harsh. These aren't people or ethical decisions, kittens. They're freaking shoes. Gold shoes. They need your stern eye and sense of style-entitlement.

Today's game is called (cue the band):

                    Are these shoes
                    good for the grocery store
                    or should they be saved for
                    a Saturday celeb brunch
                    with Debra Messing and Demi Moore?

                    (see these babies after the jump)

You want me to join you? Oh hell, why not?

I have a sneaky suspicion these $125 numbers were snagged from a woman flip-flopping her way through Walgreen's on a Thursday afternoon. Maybe they were spray painted with something glittery to detract from the nicks where the lady kicked the cart to rebel against the $1.29 Q-tips she wanted being sold out and needing to get a raincheck rather than the seven boxes she counted on, but who knows? They could be couture. I'm just a woman over here with 73 pairs of shoes in boxes I'm afraid to unpack. What do I know?

Does it change your mind to know they are named Vamp Wedge? Does this mean the Walgreen's lady was wearing hot pink lipstick when they were ripped from her knee-high stockinged feet? Or does this mean these are, in fact, hot? Do the corky wedges forgive the giant criss-crosses? I'm befuddled.

What do you think? Do you believe Facebook, my fashionable friends? Are these the slides indicative of my full-on failure to recognize real style? Or are they just as fug as I think?

P.S. Are these CVS-snagged cousins any better?

I would not wear those shoes...I think it's the gold...spray paint them shiny black and then talk to me again! xo

Hmm...Well if you were to be asking a "hard-femm", lesbian if these shoes are dank or skank! She would say get your ass some gold cowboy boots and then talk to me!;) I am a sucker for cowboy boots and tight DIESEL jeans, bring on the GOLD.

These shoes are FUGLY!!! My grandmama wouldn't even rock these!

Hmmmm...Mama P has a pair of these. Enough said.
