Dear Rodarte boots, I hope I get to see you soon in person

This is how you wear Rodarte’s thigh high boots

And this is how you destroy Rodarte’s boots


Good Lord I couldn’t breathe the first time I laid my eyes on her thighs. I knew there was something familiar about the boots. It was like seeing a long-lost friend whose face was fried in an acid attack. And the next second, ‘Oh…. I see what you did there, Sun Ho.‘

First of all if you cannot afford Rodarte’s ten grand dresses then please pick something that balances the boots’ edgy, gothic undertones, instead of picking out some random netted thing that remotely resembles Rodarte’s handmade beauties. And what’s up with the fishnets? Dress not oozing enough hooker appeal? This is the Grammys for goodness’s sake, not a Cosplay convention.

Secondly, and most importantly, who in their right mind DIYs THE BOOTS of all boots?! It’s like studding Chanel’s 2.55 yourself. They are meant to be fashion-forward, not a fashion faux pas. Those horrible, unnecessary ornaments cheapen the boots tremendously, and I wouldn’t blame anyone out of the fashion circle for having the impression that Sun Ho bought them from a stripper shop in Las Vegas. I think it’s time for her to sack the stylist behind these monstrocities.

Excuse me while I weep for this sorry sight. The only solace I could get out of this is the fact that I can finally get hold of the unadulterated version soon.

FYI, for all my non-Singaporean readers, Sun Ho is a singer/songwriter hailing from Singapore. She’s the wife of a pastor from the biggest church here (NOoooooo…… relly?), and her biggest hit is probably that blasphemous song China Wine.
EDIT: It seems like the dress was specially made for her by the Mulleavy sisters themselves. That goes to show that money still can’t buy taste.
