For Your Prostitute Friend

Recently, most of my hooker pals have been lamenting the lack of innovation in high heel footwear. I can't blame them. Anybody who has been out at 3AM trolling for a good time in any major city has surely noticed the sea of sameness that has pervaded the feet of our country's streetwalkers. I've long been a proponent of taking inspiration from unconventional places. And now, so too have shoe designers.

The wonderful people at St. Augustine have just released these concept shoes with LED underlightings. I'm assuming the inspiration for these LED Stilettos was taken from the LED runners that brighten up the night at street racing events in your local hamlet. Now, as those cars illegally rip through your city, the ladies of the night can share in the delight of undercarriage luminescence. No word on pricing, but they will be widely available (like your prostitute friend) in 2012. Hot damn! (via LikeCool)

9 Millies for Your Honey

You ever have the urge to get your girlfriend an item similar to one you own so you guys can hit the town in matching style? You haven't? Good. That's not ok. If you've ever seen a couple wearing the same damn outfit, you understand. If you've ever actually worn your partner's clothing (and same-sex couples are exempt)...I don't really have any words for you, but I would like you to leave my site. Anyway, a while back I posted these epic earphones. And now some hipster on Etsy has put these in their virtual storefront:

How great are they? Those kids over at Etsy have it all! I've got a friend who rags on Etsy on the regular, but I have to admit, hipster or not, they are creative. The "artist" (who likes Fall, lives with a cat, and uses words like "up-cycled") makes all kinds of crap out of bullets. Unfortunately for your violent hipster girlfriend, these earrings have been sold. But I bet if you asked real nice, he'd make another set for you. Or you can buy the shotgun shell cufflinks. Act quickly so you and your gal can strut in matching style (I'm assuming you've already purchased those earphones, right?). Maybe you can make up a story about how the metal for the bullets from your earphones and the metal for bullets from her earrings came from the same refinery and have a magical bond!
