Yay or Nay Wednesday

yaynay111.jpgLast week's Yay or Nay offering had me sitting in front of my computer; nose to my screen; refreshing constantly; and waiting with baited breath for someone - some crazy person - to say Yay! Thankfully, the bizarre "beach shoes" from Skechers were a unanimous "I'd rather stab myself in the leg with a fork!" Always nice to know that our readers can pass a standardised sanity test.

This week's offering is... well... 'different' is probably the nicest term available at this time. Another designer making a stand and saying "I am an engine and not a caboose!" if you ask us; but we'd like to know what you think. Are they fashion forward or bobble baloney? Yay or Nay and why?

They look like they are something from seaworld!!!

Definately fit for a prawn star!!!

(Hating them btw!!)

Yay!
I like the matching colors (brown heel with salmon) and I think the big black ball gives that "designer touch" to the shoe.
Anyway, I have to admit that I liked it better as a design object than for its function to embellish our feet.

Dear God, a big NAY, looks as if you are wearing some sort of manic fish on your feet - guppies of the world unite !

Nay, they're not for me - don't like the overall shape and the prawny colour. I do like the long skinny slingback bits, though. I also have an urge to pull off the bobbly bit and keep it in my hand.

Heaven help me, I actually like these. I think the colour is cute, I like the tapered heel with a little bit of a twist in the deisign at the top, and I think the toe embellishment is cute in a mod sort of way.

Yeah, I'd wear 'em! :)

A disco ball fell on a piano that had a can of pink paint sitting on it. NO.

Did not look fishy to me until I read the comments. And Yes you have a point. However, I still like them and would wear them in a heart beat!

The coral candy color is right on trend, and shoes are moving to an architectural look like these. I like them! Perfect for spring.

Yay! I actually really like them! I think they'd be adorable with a white eyelet dress in the summertime.

Nay. These are just ghastly.

Posted by: NikkiH | January 16, 2008 11:28 PM

A bit bizarre but I've seen much worse these days. A weak "nay".

Posted by: miff | January 17, 2008 1:26 AM

I love, love, LOVE the color. The doorstopper-esque heel is a little strange but has grown on me. The ball things are iffy...but I think they'd look great on a foot and could be both quirky casual and formal dressed up and down, so my vote is YAY :D

I like them. The color is fantastic. The black balls are a little weird and maybe just a little bit too big but they compliment the shoes and make them very unique. Yay!
