Nothing puts a smile on my dial more than a shoe bargain from those nutters at online retailer Stylish Plus. The discount dealer never fails to amuse, whether this is with its extravagant mark-down prices or strange shoe descriptions.
Update, April 2022: These shoes are no longer available and Stylish Plus disappeared as a retailer shortly after this article was first published in 2014 (we don’t know when exactly but it was gone by 2015). We’ve kept this article alive for your reading pleasure.
In this case it is both crazy shoe descriptions and mad mark downs that are on display: these shoes are said to be the “Latest Waterproof Taiwan Diamond Stiletto Heels (Black,Red)” from Stylish Plus.
There is no explanation as to how they’re waterproofed – or for that matter why they’re waterproofed – but waterproof they claim to be. So if you’re looking to go swimming in your stilettos or hold a pool party in your pumps it seems that these are the shoes for you.
There’s also a cray cray discount of course. The market price is allegedly USD $ 212.00 but you could have picked up a pair for the somewhat more reasonable $39.95.
Amusing descriptions aside, that is a shoe bargain if ever I’ve seen one. Stylish Plus also offer free worldwide shipping on orders over $79, and there’s a further 15% discount off your first order if you sign up with them. The waterproof heels were available in red or black but only in US sizes 3 to 8.
