Description

Betsy Johnson is never one to be lost amongst the crowd - her style and signature are as unique and fashionable as ever in this shoe. The terrific combination of texture, differently-sized crystals, and tulle on the bows make for a fun ruby slipper. Dorothy wouldn't have wished she was home with these - she would've been out showing them off on Melrose.

Interesting - adding the Mary Jane style to the ruby slipper. Polish and sparkle taken to a whole new level. Check out the detail on the arch side of the shoe as well. Le sigh...can I have every pair of this collection?

This is probably one of the most unique reinterpretations of the ruby slipper. The unique cut, style, texture, and design are all incredibly intriguing.

This is one of my personal favorites. I love the transition of the darker crystals to the bold red pump. Give me just a little bit of sparkle and a whole lot of red and I am a happy Dorothy.

By far, my most favorite shoe. Of course, I am biased (Gwen Stefani is my absolute favorite), but it's a quite a daring yet classic take on the shoe. The classic ruby, and the classic sparkle are all there, but with a new heel (a daring one at that) and a new silhouette. I wish I was in these shoes...I wish.

Wow. Look at the classic silhouette in the lower half of the shoe, and then, as your raise your gaze upward, be amazed! This is probably the most modern and contemporary reinterpretation of the ruby slipper.

How fun is this slipper? I love the soft mish-mash of fabrics - they lend a feminine ballerina feel to the lovely red shoe.

Ahh yes, the classic ruby slipper. My how it sparkles. This is the shoe that launched a movie (well, the movie had plenty on it's own), and an idea, and a million little girl's dreams.
