While some platform pumps look nice/fun (with a platform of maybe 1 inch), I'm so sick of having seeing mega pumps being the main shoe offered (the other options being more "office style" or beach sandals)
Plus, some women look ridiculous wearing these out. (I mean really, if you're going to get so wasted, maybe wear a better pair of shoes so you don't look like a penguin trying to get home)
Aaaand sometimes I think Christian Louboutin is playing a joke on women. He's sitting somewhere thinking, "I wonder how how many women I can get to spend $1000 on glorified stripped shoes? Hmm." (I like his classic shoes, not like the link I posted)
