It is that time of the year when all things evil are honored. . . Halloween. I will not tell you all how awful I think the idea behind Halloween is. All things bad: torture, animal abuse, demonic spirits . . . but, like I said, I will not go there. haha.
I know people like to try and sugar coat Halloween, especially, for their children but, it is what it is. That doesn’t mean I have not participated in the holiday. I have. Actually, there are two things I really do like:
1. The candy: Give me a bag of candy and I will make it disappear. I have a sweet tooth that is never satisfied.
2. I like dressing up: It is the one time of year I can be any of my many personalities and no one will institutionalize me.
As I was looking through the newspaper, I came across an insert for a Halloween Store. There I was looking at the costumes debating who I would like to be, when I decided to share something with Queen in Heels readers. I am going to tell you all which heels to wear with your costumes. Yes, I know that the Halloween stores have everything you need from the costume to the accessories. Yes, I know that many even have a small shoe section. However, my choices are so much better and you will wear these heels long after you have put away your costume. Seriously, does anyone ever wear their costume more than once?
Let me tell you, I was having so much fun, I could have found a pair of shoes for every costume in the store. However, I knew that by the time you scrolled down to the 50th costume you would have considered me ridiculous and a few other not so sweet names. So, I chose only 14 costumes and heels by 14 different designers. I will also tell you which one I want to be this year.
Little Bo Peep
I surmised that Little Bo Peep didn’t lose her sheep they left because they didn’t like the shoes on her feet.
Not to worry they all came back when they seen her walking around (looking very worried but cute) in her baby blue suede heels from Pollini.
Prisoner
Oh, so you are a tough girl. Really? Is that what you would like people to believe you were arrested for? I am sorry but, besides, a prostitution charge, I really can not believe you were arrested for being a kick-ass bad girl.
Every one knows that bad girls who kick-ass wear spikes on their stilettos like these ones from Ruthie Davis.
The King of Pop
I found these female versions of Michael Jackson costumes. I am sorry, if you are going to dress like the King please, respect his feet.
Michael Jackson wore penny loafers and unless you are were a pair like these ones from Pour La Victoire you are nothing but a impersonator. Oh, wait you still are however, the right shoes are mandatory.
Vampirette
This is for those of you on team Edward. (I prefer my man a little more wild *coughs Jacob coughs*)
If you are not wearing the red and black stilettos by Gainmarco Lorenzi please, go play in the sun. These heels are the ultimate blood sucking vixens weapon. I am sure any man will let you suck him dry if you are wearing these. (*side eyes myself*)
Nurse
Whether you are the good nurse, the bad nurse, or the naughty nurse you need the right wedges to work in.
These Yves Saint Laurent wedges are perfect for you Florence Nightingale wanna-bes. Actually, I think these white leather wedges were designed especially for those in the health care field.
Roman Goddess
Yes, every so often, I too like to show the world my inner greatness, (*whispers* really I am more Greek goddess) so, I understand your choice of costume.
However, since, I have to live among mortal man, I can not always wear leg wrap straps. Therefore, I have chosen the golden straps of Jimmy Choo for this costume.
Black Widow
I prefer the love them then, leave them method but hey, do you. If love them then kill them is working for you . . .
What else would the spider of death wear on her feet besides Christian Louboutin. I think it has something to do with the distinctive red marking.
Gladiator
Hold the lions, tigers, and bears. . uumm, excuse me, did you really just show up at the arena in a pair of cowboy boots?
I am sorry those boots totally are ruining the mood for this blood thirsty crowd. I am going to need you to wear these heels from Proenza Schouler. And if you survive maybe you can wear them out later to celebrate.
Card Girl
This is really a sweet costume, almost innocent if it were not for the gambling.
Okay, you can pretend you do not know what happens in Sin City if you like. However, everyone knows you have to shimmer and shine. So, for the naive girl in you, I have chosen Miu Miu glitter ankle boots. (Don’t worry what happens in . . .oh you know the rest)
Cave Woman
You went out did a little hunting then cam home and sewed up a little something. We women evolve so much faster than men.
Just let me make a small suggestion, leave the leg warmers at home. Yes, I know you want to carry the leopard print theme from head to toe. Please, just let Giuseppe Zanotti take care of the feet.
Mummy
After being forcefully abducted, wrapped, and shut in the tomb of a Pharaoh (the life of a concubine), you are back for your revenge.
Well, girl before you release the curse on us, take some of that treasure and get yourself a pair of boots from Givenchy.
Princess of Death
As the princess you are entitled to what ever you like, even if it is someone’s soul.
I have to admit it is a little eerie, that I chose Alexander McQueen for her, yet, I had to do so.
Now we are down to the final two costumes. These are the two that I really debated between. So, in second place . . .
The Mad Hatter
My love for Johnny Depp aside. . . .no, honestly, it is all about my boo.
I would totally have to wear these chameleon heels from Fendi. They complete this look perfectly. However, this costume did not win.
I have decided that I need to be . . .
DJ Lance
I had to black out his eyes because, he was not on the costume site, it was another guy. The problem was that all the guys wearing his costume had on white tennis shoes and I needed a picture of the shoes he wears. As, you can see they are orange and yellow.
After searching site after site, I almost gave up. Yes, I saw orange heels and I saw yellow heels, and I saw a combination of both. They were just not what I needed. I needed something that resembled his shoes. Then, I found a pair from Jessica Simpson. Are they not perfect? Unfortunately, I will not be wearing this costume or the heels because, I have no party to go to 
Oh, well there is always next year.
Have a safe and fun Halloween.
Oh yeah, what are you dressing up as this year?
This has got to be THE BEST HALLOWEEN POST EVER!!!! Really, this is just too good. You’d be so horrified by the comfy flats I’ll be wearing with my witch costume, but I’m volunteering that the children’s school all day. if I were going to some fab party I’d be trying on one of these for sure.
Heather Fonseca recently posted..Burnout Velvet – I love you!
Thank you Heather *blushes* Have a witchin’ good time at the school.
I absolutely love THIS post! I wouldn’t mind you doing all 50, since I could just look at shoes all day. The Jessica Simpsons are so gorge! (But, I’m going to need you to step away from DJ Lance, I’m starting to worry). The mummy shoes and Michael Jackson would so make the costumes! The red and black shoes took the cake!
