OMG Shoes! Irregular Choice

by Ashe on November 4, 2009

I’m a long time Irregular Choice fan, and that’s not coming as a surprise. Their shoes are funky, vibrant, sometimes beautiful and sweet, and definitely showstoppers. The odd thing about them, though, is that they aren’t necessarily comfortable shoes, but they’re not exactly uncomfortable either.  They’re just kind of there, on your feet, but they aren’t just there on your feet, because those little suckers exist.

Like Fluevogs, these little shoes are funky, iconic little relics for worships, with disciples spreading the word of their shoe supremacy all over.

And boy did I worship when I saw the Electric Love on Stylish Thought.  It’s like the 80s, electroclash, Jem, and the future collided in a shoe & threw up a holographic unicorn.  I’m pretty sure I’d want to wear these everywhere, like a 5 year old who has a new favorite dress.

Unsurpisingly, I’m also in love with the Shimmy. They’re a deceptive shoe. I think the delicate coloring and architectural heel make them look more spendy & higher end than they are.  I think the insane heel also reminds me of some of Lady Gaga’s early outfits, but in a more wearable form…they’d look totally smoking with a business suit or cocktail dress– a fun and sneaky way to remember the fun in fashion!

They also have boots with light-up heel flashers like the ones in kids’ sneakers I’ve been wanting for myself FOREVER.

Unfortunately, ICs also seem to be utterly unavailable in Canada. Story of my life in online shopping…

I’m intrigued by the first one, scared by the second one. Though I can’t really tell anything till I try ‘em on.

That heel is AMAZING. I don’t really wear green, so my bank account is safe for now…but holy cow, that heel!

I can totally see you wearing the Electric Loves. When I saw them, I immediately thought of you! ;)

Yes honey!!! Those Electric Loves are setting my heart ablaze! I’m intriqued by the Shimmy, but something about it bothers me…

I really like Irregular Choice as well, but I’ve never actually tried a pair on.

I LOVE the turquoise and silver on the first shoes! If only they had a little bit of platform on the front…

YES, those Electric Love booties are sooo JEM (or possible Barbie and the Rockers!)either way, they are an awesome flashback and a really fun way to add a splash into an otherwise plain outfit.

I totally agree with you on those first boots, I would wear those everywhere as well! I found your blog through IFB and it is stellar :)

These first boots are marvellous! I would wear them until they were completely broken and worn out, hahahaha. I’m not a fan of the second one, though.

Love crazy shoes, and thus spent way too much time exploring their site. There are about 23 pairs I want to buy right now. Thanks for the post!

There is nothing quite like an irregular choice heel – I am just as much of a huge fan as you are :)

But guess what? The pair of beautiful stunning black and gold IC boots that I have been hoping to see on eBay or two years? They have finally turned up, unworn and in my size… in the one month of the year where I have no spare cash at all.

The world is a mean mean place!

Those first ones are blazing hot! Irregular Choice is one of my guilty (as in un-eco) pleasures. Love!
