Not just any slippers will do, they must be these velvet "evening shoes". Here's your chance to live vicariously through your shoes. Resplendent in black velvet and blue satin, these "evening shoes" feature handcrafted gold embroidery of an elephant, (sorry, no donkeys available for the Democrats.) These "evening shoes" are best paired with a silk robe and brandy sniffer. Head over to Vivre to get a pair for $225.
