(Click on Photo to Enlarge) Today is a personal rant about stupidity. I need, I must have, I can’t live without. All phrases used when lusting after the latest fashion trend. Honestly, none of us need much more than some bits of clothing to keep warm in the winter, and a little sun protection for the summer.
On a whim I searched out for the ultimate nouveau riche decadence : The most expensive dress, boots, and shoes in the world. Personally, for the privilege and status of wearing these items, I would want a jaw- dropping knockout. Certainly a "look" that would reflect the price I paid. (Top row from left to right) The spider-web dress worn to the Spider-Man premiere-has the price tag of 5 million pounds, and in this case, all those pounds couldn't buy any class! The white dress named "Nightingale of Kuala Lumpur" at least comes with an exotic name for the price tag of $30 million. The dress looks hand washable too; hard to trust the cleaners with this one. The diamonds are from the Middle Eastern jeweler Mouawad. Most expensive boots: $14,000 Manolo alligator skin boots. I found a similar look for $100 by J Renee Farrah, just in case $14,000 is out of your price range. Most expensive shoes: Valentino black lace pumps found at Neiman Marcus for $4,700 , a bargain next to the boots. If you wore them everyday for a year, they would amortize out to $12.87 a day. That's just about three Frappucinos. Definitely a bargain when you think how much weight you would lose skipping those daily drinks. Of course you could buy 47 pairs of shoes at $100 a pop instead. The bottom row left photo-I’m sorry but if you have a tattoo of your favorite designer logo on your person, you should receive a lifetime designer discount. It is an advertisement after all, even if it’s a skanky one like the Burberry shorts worn by the woman (bottom row right side). Maybe Burberry would do us all a favor and pay her to stay out of their shorts.
