A NEW SPIN ON THE "PEEP TOE"

Stella McCartney's transparent synthetic stilettos have spawned a craze for see-through shoewear, at least on the fancy designer end of things: shoewear heavyhitters Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin will be putting out their own takes in the fall. NYPost.com has a little piece on test-driving the practicality of the Stella McCartney shoes and gives a thumbs-up, even saying that wearing them is relatively painless. I don't know--I register as skeptical of the clear plastic parts, but the cut-out look always has an appealing effect on feet. There's just something really strange about clear plastic. Maybe if the clear parts were more like wire mesh or fishnet-y? Or maybe they were tinted like windows?
