Current Fashion Craze: GLADIATOR SANDALS

This reminds me of Jesus A LOT. After all this was the trend during His time (hehe). Reminds me too of the Spartans, Remember? From that hot movie 300? Who would ever think it will become a fashion trend of today. The first persons I think I saw wearing this was Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen. They both debuted the heeled and flat knee-high type, which I thought at that time was ridiculous. Only they can pull that off. Here's a pic of them wearing their oh so ferosh knee-high flat CHANEL sandals and Azzedine Alaia heeled gladiator boots:

I found something similar from Ichigo (ichigoshoes.multiply.com) for P1,450.

These are totally cute, but for me it's overkill. I would not wear this at all, except for maybe a costume party. But then there are certain people who would look great, shockingly inspirational and attention worthy wearing this.

On the other hand, these I would love love love to wear:


I found something similar to what Fergie's wearing from pillfootwear.multiply.com for P780.:)

This is my favorite so far! It's an ISABEL MARANT glads worn by Kirsten Dunst. If only I could find something similar to this. :c
