I’m uncomfortable in flats, but I bought these Giuseppe Zanotti riding boots so I can ride Major Dukes, my German Shepherd, sidesaddle.

Actually, I bought them for hiking the Grand Canyon with him in March.

I plan on photographing all that natural beauty: I’ll limit my smoky eye to three shades of shadow, and cut Major’s collars down to two.

That big slash in the earth might make it into some pictures, too…

I remind myself that these neon pink Giuseppe Zanotti mules must be better made than the stripper shoes on Hollywood Blvd. that sell for a fraction of the price.

But that just makes these Giuseppe Zanotti mules more offensive…

I broke my fast from shopping and snagged these Giuseppe Zanotti mules on eBay, for $150.

These Giuseppe Zanotti blue satin mules are choice: they’re low-maintenance minimalist, and in blue satin they remind me of a jazz baby’s boudoir slippers…

Wanting.

Over five inches of an angular arch, these Giusppe Zanotti platform wedges are so ridick it’s hard to imagine what you’d wear them with. So wear them with nothing…

Wearing.

I bought these Giuseppe Zanotti platforms in Miami last summer, for less than two Benjies. The back of the wood heel has got this great curve…

Hating.

If strippers wore $600 shoes… ]]> http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2009/03/30/giuseppe-zanotti-platform-wedges-k-is/feed 3 http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2009/02/17/giuseppe-platform-peep-toes-k-is http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2009/02/17/giuseppe-platform-peep-toes-k-is#comments Tue, 17 Feb 2009 14:08:02 +0000 Kristopher http://www.kristopherdukes.com/?p=1951

These Giuseppe platform peeptoes are perfect: design equal parts interesting and classic, sex that dances between obvious and elegant….

Wearing.

The patent black of these Giuseppe Zanotti peeptoes ties the T-strap to that patterned platform…

Hating.

Being well dressed is wearing things that background your beauty, not distract from it. These loud Giuseppes are perfect for the ugly chick with the bad boob job…

Wanting.

So a mosaic mirror heel on a patent leather ankle boot vibes a little Beyonce…

Wearing.

A sculptural mirror heel looks even bolder balancing a plain patent pump…

Hating.

That chrome plus a low heel makes these Giuseppe Zanotti mirror heels smell musty mod… ]]> http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2009/01/07/giuseppe-zanotti-mirror-shoes-k-is/feed 1 http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2008/08/19/half-off-giuseppes-k-is http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2008/08/19/half-off-giuseppes-k-is#comments Tue, 19 Aug 2008 17:31:40 +0000 Kristopher http://www.kristopherdukes.com/?p=1166

I have these in chrome. The patent’s disco doll, the T-strap Fitzgerald flapper, the whole shoe an extra 20% off with promocode “summer”…

Wanting.

Giuseppe crafts jewelry for your feet. Unlike lazy Loubies, these Giuseppes are good enough to make a gray T-shirt dress seem chic…

Hating.

A waste of Giuseppe’s genius. Dull gray suede that slips over your leg and falls flat. Completely craftless, the most blah boot …

Wanting.

Pair this foot-jewelry with a gray tank dress, and go on a date with yourself…

Wearing.

I love the drama of this heel. Yeah, real 90210. It even stole one of my toyfriends…

Hating.

What a waste of a dead animal. PETA should protest this skin on a flat shoe..

Wanting.

Such minimalist luxe, that it’s Dali darling instead of cheap cheek…

Wearing.

Delish, though I had a bottle of Paris a friend gave me, and it got more compliments…

Hating.

Let’s slap “KD” on an overpriced cowhide sewn in China, and call it designer…

Sluts rarely realize that making lust is making a trade of respect. Sluts never know that sex is the top expression of admiration, that an orgasm is pure pleasure achieved appreciating the one you’re with.

Sluts don’t do 99 dudes they esteem. Sluts sleep with a single loser they barely understand; they’re missionaries about monogamy with partners who never value them.

Sluts lead an empty life full of unchosen, Platonic pals. Sluts–

Won’t wear f**k-you shoes like these.
