Sandals Santoni with brilliants.
March 3, 2009
The daring design of the house Santoni decide to implement this popular phrase that women can have the world at his feet, giving form nothing less than the world’s most expensive sandals.
Without recourse to use the predictable gold, these fine Italian decided to spice up your creation with small (but expensive) diamond 12 carat Montblanc, chained to each other, ending at its tip, like hanging with a delicate star. Needless to say that this is a limited edition.
What I love about these sandals is that they look is sober and classic, are perfect for a cocktail dress and refinement is beyond the ostentatious details. Besides, how not to be made when carrying a diamond ornament in shoes? The idea of adding our favorite stone to one of our favorite clothing is simply brilliant.
This pair of shoes is worth 3 million euros (something like 4.2 million dollars) and are a privilege that only some, like Naomi Campbell, can aspire to. The rest of us are content with sighs.
