Yay or Nay? Jessica Simpson Dany Platforms

***UPDATE*** I forgot to add a pic of one of my favorite peeps Dahlia of Mz. Fashion Closet, she has the Dany platforms in both colors! Her shoe game is ridic!!!

 
I really like the look of the Jessica Simpson Dany platforms, I think they are reminiscent of a 70's vibe but I am concerned that the heel is so high, I am 5'8 and I love a heel but I don't want to look like a giant or that I'm teetering when I walk. So, what say you, Yay or Nay on these?

Available at Zappos for $79.16 (On Sale!)

After looking for more photos of this shoe, apparently lots of ladies already love this shoe!

All You Need is Love!

....As in, Georgina Goodman's Love shoe! Available in both flats and heels, the shoe, inexplicably called the 'Leon' but has the word 'Love' spelled out along the sides is available in black and nude. I prefer the nude version with the black writing and Gwyneth Paltrow is also a fan.

But Love comes at a major price as the flats are $580 and the heeled version is $920 but both are available at endless.com

Check out Gap's 2010 Fall shoe collection. I want all four of these, especially the boots top left and platform oxford bottom right. No word on when these will be available or the price points but I'll be on the lookout...

On The Platform

Need comfy yet still stylish work alternatives for the summer months? Try a platform wedge, I love these more than a traditional wedge because you have height but they are still walk worthy.
