DD wants a pair of these for her sweet sixteen birthday party.
I don't see the harm, they are afterall just a pair of shoes!! But DH is dead set against it. He has even got MIL in on the arguement against them. She's says "she'll do herself a mischief"

What do people here think? I'm right arn't I?

Shock I think i agree with your DH

Your DH is a sensible man.

TyraG · 26/01/2011 16:28

What couldn't you find the ones with the gold fish in the heel?

bumblebeebuzz · 26/01/2011 16:30

They are stripper shoes. Nobody except strippers wear them. Your husband is a wonderful and sensible man.

Gorgeous on a Burlesque dancer, not so good on a child.

Besides, where could she wear them?

Is there anything else she wants?

gorionine · 26/01/2011 16:32

I think the clue is in the name of the shoes. YABU I'm afraid. Unless you want your Dd to brake a leg say no to the shoesSmile

This board seems full of windups today... not very good ones either. Hmm

Ciske · 26/01/2011 16:33

"Just like the swimsuit and lingerie models wear!"

If that description didn't put you off, I don't think there is much else that can be said.... Confused

gorionine · 26/01/2011 16:33

LWITW, where are the other threads? I am very bored. Grin

Nagoo · 26/01/2011 16:34

really, you need to also get her a pole to hold on to, stop herself falling over Shock

Bogeyface · 26/01/2011 16:35

:o

Eddie Murphy did a bit in his stand up once about whore shoes, and I cant find it on youtube!

Said it all for me!

MrSpoc · 26/01/2011 16:38

there even called stripper shoes. (ok for the bed room but anywhere else dodgy)

SandStorm · 26/01/2011 16:39

Apart from anything else, they're butt ugly.

Don't buy them.

TragicallyHip · 26/01/2011 16:41

I like them, you should buy her something like this to go with them

Deciduousblonde · 26/01/2011 16:41

Damn my 'Buy It Now' finger... Grin

SummerRain · 26/01/2011 16:41

They're a bitch to walk in... one of my co-workers loaned me hers one night and I ended up walking around the club barefoot as I kept falling off them Grin

"What do people here think? I'm right arn't I?"

No, absolutely not.
They are hideous, vile and completely OTT.
