$500K for a Pair of Shoes?

by Tracey

Ok, I thought I was over the Oscar buzz, but check this out – Stuart Weitzman’s (love his shoes), $500,000 30 Carat Diamond Dream Shoes were to be worn by Anika Noni Rose (Dreamgirls) at the 79th Annual Academy Awards airing February 25, 2007 in Los Angeles, California.

Here’s the shoe:

And Here is Anika in the shoes:

Now, I love shoes and diamonds like the next girl. But $500,000 for a one pair? That is dreaming.

About Shoe Boxers

Would you rather spend your last dollar on a killer pair of Jimmy Choo stilettos or save your cash and traipse around town in a pair of last years flip flops? If you chose the latter, this site is not for you. Shoeboxers is for the Shoe Diva. For the girl who stands out in a crowd – likely because her 4 inch heels have her towering over everyone else.
