I had a midlife crisis and bought these insanely gorgeous platform sneakers, they are so pretty.  I realized that they are cooler than me, and returned them- the poor things never made it out of the house, but I wish it could have been different.  They were lightweight and seemed well-made.  The angles and design was really nice- a little cyber-goth for me, but extremely well designed.  Every time I see them in my orders I am sad that I couldn't pull them off.
