Put a Duck on It.


M: I just laughed out loud. Are you fucking kidding me with this?

for sale on eBay! No, seriously.

A: Oh! I meant to send you those earlier today. I think Chie is smoking crack.

M: DUCKS. ON SHOES.

A: They retailed for $375! TOO FAR, ANTHRO.

M: Coming in fall 2012, Chicken on a String!

A: If you wore your duck head shoes with your chicken on a string you would reach MAXIMUM ANTHRO TWEE-NESS. And my head would explode.

M: I think we could ramp it up. Maybe with Bjork's swan dress?



M: I call this look "Bird Flu".

A: She is batshit but I always kind of loved her for wearing that insane dress. I mean, who else?

M: Oh, I give her mad respect. Perhaps a subtle headpiece?



A: PUT A BIRD ON IT.

M: ON ALL OF IT.

A: Dude, but seriously. People bought the duck head shoes.

M: I really feel like this is some kind of prank.

A: I think they bought them to go with this mallard sweater vest:



M: *thunk*

A: Marianne? Are you okay?

M: *yelling from the floor*

I'm on the floor and I can't move. Forward my calls.

A: I'M GOING TO PUT A BIRD ON IT.

M: *Marianne is currently away from the computer and cannot return your email.*

A: MARIANNE COME BACK I HAVE A BIRD FOR YOU TO PUT ON. IT.

M: I'm sorry, you want to put a bird on WHAT, EXACTLY?

A: On...It? I'm sorry, I don't even know.

M: Because I'm reading 50 Shades of Grey and I AM NOT GETTING INTO KINKY BIRD STUFF.

A: You can take your sexy Twilight fanfic and go stand over................................................there.

M: .....................................WITH NO BIRDS ON "IT".

A: Creep.

M: You started it.

  1. I thought someone had added those ducks to the shoes and didn't realize they were made like that until I kept reading! That is just beyond stupid.

    *Bjork is my hero!*

  2. LMAO...the people who bought them actually admitted it publicly. Oy. the designer probably did it as a joke and laughing his/her crazy ass off that money actually made from it.

    Hey now, me likey 50 Shades.... oops.. perv.

  3. I love them! But then I own that Mallard vest. I love the review for the shoes even more! "Cons: the ankle strap is unflattering." One reviewer wants to be buried in them. Put it this way: if they were free and comfy I would wear them for a "lark". But not with my mallard vest. One bird at a time.

    1. I'm totally cool with a having a few quirky pieces, but dude. Those shoes are TOO FAR. TOOOOOO FAAAAAAAAARRRRR.

  4. Why ruin an otherwise perfectly good pair of pumps with ... duck heads? I meant, shoot, if you're going to sell a $$$ pair of shoes with ducks on them, let's have some better-looking duck heads.

    1. I totally agree. They really look like someone made them and stuck them on as a joke.

  5. I keep thinking about these shoes, which have a nice shape other than the DUCKS. If someone gave them to me for free, I would chop the little duck heads off and put some kind of shoe clip on them. God, duck shoes, please get out of my head.
