As my dear friend, Lauren, pointed out, we are not the first to take a stance on this issue. In fact, at this time last year, the fabulous Perez Hilton shared his dismay about this terrible fashion faux-pas, citing the above photo of Sarah Jessica Parker. In his words, not mine, let the camel toe and horse face jokes begin!
Among my favorite responses were the following:
- If I wanted people to see the curvature of my toes, I would just wear socks around all day.
- Looks stupid and uncomfortable and makes me think of people who wear socks with flip flops. If you're not a ninja turtle, these shoes have no purpose.
- LOATHE IT! They took an already awful thing and added one more element to hate about it!
- They look like they are made for cows or goats.
- Nasty, nasty, nasty!
- It screams ninja turtle toes!!! It also reminds me of when people wear socks with flip flops...ouch!
- I hope it doesn't become one of those trends that we all swear we'd never get caught dead in--but then take over our wardrobe in a couple months.
- Okay, no, this is gross.
- This looks like a camel toe, literal camel toe, not perverse camel toe. That being said, anything that resembles even-toed ungulates (thank you Wikipedia), I am vehemently passing on.
- Loathe it. Fit for a horse or cow--but NOT a lady.
Like I said before, the verdict was unanimous: there will be NO split-toed monstrosities for these fashionistas! So please, let's keep it together, shall we? And by "it," I mean our toes. After all, we're not barn yard animals. Clearly.
