Whoa - these Versace booties kind of rock, don't they?

Real talk: Versace and I have had our disagreements in the past. Mostly about handbags. For some reason, the brand just hasn’t been able to translate their louche, European sex appeal into any bags that I really must have in my closet. Luckily for them, sexuality is easier to translate in shoe form.

Because of prior run-ins with Versace bags that I hated, I didn’t expect to love any of their shoes – I was wrong. I adore the Versace Patent and Suede Boots so much that I can almost imagine them on my feet as we speak. Everything about them is perfect – the punchy purple color, the combination of materials, the high-gloss finish on the contrasting silver heel, the covered platform. I want them in my possession immediately, if not sooner.

Some of you may hate me for saying this, but forget Louboutins – if I had to spend a thousand dollars on a pair of fantasy shoes right now, they’d be Nicholas Kirkwood or this particular pair of Versace boots. I can’t resist the space-age look, but the saturated color keeps the shoe from crossing too far into science fiction territory. These boots will look utterly chic when cold weather kicks in – wear them with tights to show them off. Buy through Luisa Via Roma for $1088.

I’ve never been a wood heel fan…but these are HOT!
Brenda C

Don’t really like these…
Laureen

The way the platform is shaped makes them look awkward.
Michelle

….. MEH. They’d look cuter without the patent.

I don’t like the wood heel. It doesn’t match with the rest of the boot. Now, a shiny black heel would have been the bomb!

These are my favorite shoes on the blog so far. If I had thousands of dollars to spend on shoes I would absolutely buy these and wear them. The color, the heel, the bootie style. They are exactly my style of over-the-top heels.
Rachel

Those are awesome! I love boots with built in platforms. They’re so edgy and kind of give a gladiator style to a boot. Different, and a little out there…but I’d totally wear them.

Hm.. Not my favorite shoe/boot. But hey, to each their own.
