No pain no gain: 7 ridiculously high heels we need NOW

4th February 2012 4:00 pm

Be warned, your feet will not thank you for reading this post. While flats will always have the monopoly on comfort, sometimes a girl just needs skyscrapers! You know, those huge 5-inch heels that make you feel on top of the world. They might have us wincing in pain by the end of the night and they may dwindle away our bank account every time we splurge on a new pair, but there is something just too irresistible about high heels.

Marilyn Monroe once said “I don’t know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot”. Well we would certainly have to agree with you on that one Marilyn!

These lofty 5-inch heels from Pierre Hardy are almost to gorgous to resist. Made from fuchsia and beige patent, they are gloriously girly and we need them now…
