Karim Rashid Scented Shoes
I wish I hadn't found out that Karim Rashid designed these scented plastic shoes because now I want them and they are no longer manufactured. I don't care what you think about him, these shoes are freaking fantastic. Do you remember those scented Swatch watches from the eighties? Well, this is the grown up version of which I am clearly going to be deprived.
Oddly enough, I discovered this via the blog Blushing Apples. I was just now looking through it further and thought, "This woman has my brain!" but I hesitated to put it in writing because I certainly didn't want to insult her or anything. Well, it turns out she did an entire post on me a while back and I had no idea. So now I guess it's ok to make that claim because it seems we might have been separated at birth.
haha! thank you, your so kind. indeed we were separated at birth! i love this shoes too, my obsession lead me to find some! Theyre available thru www.melissaaustralia.com.au, they have them in pink, white, gold, black! They ship worlwide so please contact them!

Gosh, I loved this post!Karim Rashid has some cool stuff, especially anything pink. I had one of those pink scented swatches back in 1985 and haven't thought about that in a looong time! Thanks for jogging a great memory. Do you remember the rubber swatch "guards" they sold for the watches? I had to have one of thhose, too.

Well, Hello, Hot Legs! And I think those shoes sound like your very own fashionista version of Crocs.
Don't deny it!
