Mom, Dad and I were in Portland last weekend making the rounds of artist's open studios. That was depressing. However, we also wound up on Alberta St. and browsed in amongst some of the cool shops there and then down to Water St. by
OMSI to stop into
Olio United. The same
Olio where I discovered my ultimately
awesome plastic shoes. This time they had a selection of
TOMS (which, I have a feeling, will wind up on my feet for good at some point!) as well as these.... "shoes".
Cow feet nailed to a pair of heels.
Sigh... I'm not all "don't wear leather or I'll throw paint on your bod!" But I do tend to avoid buying things made from leather, especially since there are so many neat materials out there to make things out of that isn't from a dead animal (you heathens, you!). That said, these are pretty raunchy (but totally awesome because, can you imagine? Wearing these hooves around and having them
peeping out from underneath the edge of your pants? A little "Hullo!" from my feet to yours.)

i'm kinda with you...as objectionable as animal products are, this is one of the most interesting things i've seen done with carcasses.

Those shoes are amazing / disgusting. I know they aren't photoshopped, but i have trouble believing that they really exist. Also, why were the artist openings depressing? Is P-town secretly an awful place to do art and full of 'posers?'
