Ugly ugly ugly shoes

I keep seeing these shoes not only in store windows on Charles Street but also on people's feet.

They are so very ugly. Very ugly. Please, please stop wearing them.

and these, and anything that remotely resembles any of them. They're searing my corneas.

Why the giant hideous gold medallions? I don't understand. Are they supposed to look like you are very rich, so very rich that you use giant gold coins, and you have so many to spare that you glued a couple on your shoes just for looks?

Honestly, I know there are trends and such, but some things are just so transcendently ugly that there is simply no excuse for even considering wearing them.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
