Fashion Heights


I'm sure by now you've noticed an alarming trend in shoes over the past couple of years, and that is heels are growing frighteningly taller by the season. Thanks to the popularity of Yves Saint Laurent's Tribute Sandals, 5" heels and even vertigo-inducing 6" heels have become de rigueur amongst the fashion set, especially with Fall's upcoming styles daring to defy any semblance of gravity. I don't even want to utter exactly what I'd look like trying to navigate around in skyscraper heels, so I won't. But this is what 6" heels casually look like tottering around your neighborhood: Victoria Beckham (aka Posh Spice/wannabe fashion designer) looking painfully ridiculous.
