Brilliant or Completely Insane?

It's been a month since I last posted, so something MUST be up to make me feel the need to blog about it. Behold, my discovery of HEEL CONDOMS. Yes, you read that right. Heel. Condoms. What exactly is this you ask? Condom-like covers that let you play dress up with your shoes. But get this, they also protect your heels from the dirt, mud, gum, and gravel that is New York City streets. My initial reaction was nothing short of absolute horror, but the more I think about it, the more that I think this concept could actually be quite brilliant.

Behold exhibit A: these black pumps actually look like a different pair of shoes. I could save money on a new pair of shoes and protect the ones I already have. Absurd? Yes. Brilliant? Yes. Will I try this out? Let's just wait and see.
