William Sharp Swarovski star cashmere slippers

In the summer, we had our heads messed with by the concept of crazily expensive flip-flops, and it seems the winter equivalent is stupidly steep slippers! This pair by William Sharp, for example, are covered in those omnipresent Swarovski crystals, and will set you back £130 at Net-a-Porter.

Now, insane as that may be I can almost see the point of these, given that I find most slippers so ugly and dowdy I don't even want to wear them around the house! But I think it's quite possible to glam up a pair of house-shoes without going for the obvious 'bling' look, and its resulting pricetag: these cute, flower-details slippers from Cath Kidston, for example, are much easier on the eye then your normal granny-style efforts, and also on the wallet at £24.
