Fashion comes from necessity, so it should serve us, not the other way around. Good shoes are comfortable, easy to mix and match, and no, you don't have to sell your kidneys to buy them.

But, what if you get something with a label, a hefty price, and it's painfully ugly? Welcome to the world of the most hideous yet tres expensive footwear.
P.S. Expect to see many Haute Couture pieces, meaning their prices are way above tens of thousands of dollars!
