Wordless Wednesday

WW is a simple blog post featuring a photo which conveys a message that speaks for itself without using words.

For all the rule breakers, of which I am one, please feel free to add all the words you want.

Antonio Vietri Moon Star Shoes

June7Image Credit: Click on Image

Price: $19.9 Million

Not even the best men’s dress shoes can come close to the price of pure artistry of these diamond shoes. Considered the world’s most expensive shoes of all time, Antonio Vietri’s Moon Star Shoes are made with 30 carats of diamonds, solid gold, and a meteorite from 1576. Known also as the first 24k gold shoes, they have a futurist appeal to them, with sleek, glossy metallics and dramatic diamond details.

Linking up with a bunch of fantastic peeps from the blogosphere who host Wordless Wednesday – Betty, Steve, image-in-ing, Xmas Dolly, Keith, Cathy, Sara, CatSynth, and Suzana.

        Marie says:

        Thank you for all your kindness & not callin’ me a boob!!!! I really tried… I wanted to get 2 in a roll, but I guess it’s not meant to be just yet. Well, since you said I must have deleted it I decided to start from step one, and here’s my link all posted & everything. I must’ve deleted my Post early on that’s why I couldn’t go further… I got really tired & went to bed, but with the ol’ back pulsating I couldn’t stay up any further. I think I’ll start a few days earlier & if I get it I’ll just save it and publish it the day its needed. Sounds like a plan to me. Anyway, I’m here, my link is posted here and I’m going to be doing a few extra posts so I can get the hang of this again & fix my own mistakes. LOVE YOU HONEY! Thanks for not callin’ me a dummy or a boob! hehehe~ I’m your SISTA!!!! You are the nicest, most lovable, and smartest friend/sista ever! SENDING HUGS! Please check my post. I’m starting to takes notes too, so I don’t have to rely on this retired brain I have! 🙁 YOU’RE DUH BEST! HUGS!!!

      I’m sure I would. I don’t wear heels and I don’t own any. 🙂

    Um, no, we don’t think so. It would be tough to walk dogs in those and the price is as steep as the shoes, LOL!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I like comfortable shoes and these don’t look comfortable at all. 🙂

  4. Suzana
    Suzana says:

    The idea and the look is a dramatic fiction very expensive! I am curious about the meteorite from 1576.
    Is it ok or safe to use a piece? Very strange. It’s interesting, but far to be beautiful, from my perspective,
    of course.
    Thank you for this discovery, dear Sandee. Could be the image for a small text…
    Happy WW and a fine week with beautiful shoes…😘❤️

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.

      I can’t imagine spending that kind of money for a pair of shoes. Goodness. Have a fabulous day and rest of the week, dear Suzana. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Even if someone gave me a pair of these shoes I wouldn’t wear them. 🙂

    Infidel753 says:

    Wearing such expensive shoes would make a person look like a narcissist. The only appropriate time to wear these would be when going out for that $14,500 dessert at that Sri Lankan place.

    I feel sorry for women who feel obligated to wear high heels. They always look so uncomfortable.

      I love finding these over prices things. Amazing. I’ll pass. 🙂

    Diamond studded, golden booties for person who has everything…except common sense.
    Still, when considered purely as a work of art, they are a beautiful sculpture.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Yes and yes, my friend. They are a work of art indeed. Happy Wednesday and thanks for linking up. 🙂

  8. Wendy & Dani says:

    Those shoes may be pretty and sparkly but they look downright dangerous! These shoes weren’t made for walking, and that’s what they won’t do (apologies to Nancy Sinatra).

    They must have to keep them in a special safe with multiple locking devices. Wowee!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I’m sure I’d hurt myself if I tried to walk in those shoes. Happy Wednesday. Scritches to Dani. 🙂

    OMC these shoes look like a fairy-tale gone wrong too…I would be afraid that they explode while I’m walking with them into the Universe😹😹Double Pawkisses for a Happy Week ahead to you, dear Sandee🐾😽💞

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I like my comfortable shoes far better. Double Pawkisses to the kitties and a hug to you. 🙂

  10. MadSnapper says:

    beyond ridiculous! the shoes and the price. to me they are not even pretty. I have seen a few similar with chains and fake diamonds, which is what I would wear if I could walk in shoes.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I don’t think they are pretty either, but the price just made me say…Really? Scritches to Beau. 🙂

      They sure do, Veronica. I could help so many with all that money too. Hugs and blessings back. 🙂

    Shoes can be works of art – I saw a whole exhibit on creative shoes at the Brooklyn Museum several years back. These are certainly quite captivating with their futuristic look. But my goodness, that level of expense is hard to fathom.

      The expense if very hard to fathom. Thanks for linking up. 🙂

    I have never heard of Antonio VIetri, which is a tribute to my lack of money, and “fine” taste, I’m sure. Has anyone seen my Crocs?? 🙂 Kidding, I don’t have Crocs. Has anyone seen my Nikes? LOL Here to wish you a wonderful day.

  22. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
