Blobfest!

I have to say, Blobfest is one of my favorite times of year.  I love that a ridiculous classic “horror” movie was made in our backyard.  I love that some of the buildings from that movie are still around.  I love the old Colonial Theatre, and I love that every year they celebrate that ridiculous movie.

Blobfest!!

Yes, Blobfest is this weekend.  And what better way to show your support than with a pair of red jelly shoes? It looks like the Blob is slowly eating your feet… but in a stylish fashion.

The Couture Bow Jelly Flat by Valentino is something fun and summery from the esteemed fashion house.  This jelly thong has an elaborate, many-layered bow at the toe—it’s just a whorl of exuberant joy, isn’t it?  Oh, and that vibrant red—that’s one of Valentino’s hallmarks!  Find them at Bergdorf Goodman for $295.

The little spikes on the Doris by Melissa Shoes will be helpful if you want to try to fight back against the Blob!  (Not really.  Once the Blob gets on you, you’re done for.)  It has a comfy suede footbed, and it smells like tutti-frutti!  Yours from Neiman Marcus for $99.

The Flat Lattice Jelly Sandal is a woven lattice of jelly material, finished with a peep toe and a half-inch heel.  It somehow feels covered and open at the same time!  Also available in ten (ten!) other colors (one with glitter!); your choice for $24 from American Apparel. 

I heart Blobfest.

This red jelly heel is the Raspberry by Mel by Melissa.  It’s so Barbie-tastic I can barely stand it!  Doesn’t it remind you a little of Barbie shoes?  It has a 4.5-inch heel and a hidden one-inch platform, cushioned footbed, and is topped with a pink jelly heart.  Also available in black with red and white with red; your choice for $46 from 6pm.

Blobfest is this weekend!  Check out the Colonial’s website for all events.
