Ranking the most painful shoesfrom @stylehard
[01]
Overview
The creator stands in her walk-in closet and shares an anecdote about the most painful shoes she's ever worn, which gave her temporary nerve damage. She then proceeds to review several other pairs of luxury high heels from her collection, including Amina Muaddi, Christian Louboutin, Saint Laurent, and Aquazzura. For each pair, she holds them up to the camera, describes them as beautiful but "deadly" or extremely uncomfortable, and explains why they are painful to wear, using humorous and exaggerated language. She concludes by teasing a future video about her most comfortable shoes and asking viewers to let her know if they want a part two.

The Most Painful Luxury Shoes
Transcript
The worst shoes I ever wore was a pair of Giuseppe Zanotti heels that left my toes numb for three days. I literally thought I had permanent nerve damage. No lie. I thought we could do a updated version of the worse, most uncomfortable shoes in my closet. Let's go. Let's start with these Aminers Beautiful Better Deadly. Oh, my Good. These are both the exact same size. These fit a full size smaller than these. And this ain't staying on. No. This is sliding off your foot every second. So annoying. So uncomfortable. Gorgeous, though. Anything with a red better, prepare to fucking die. Like, oh, and a no Kate? A so Kate? Do you literally want to tier? Unalive. That's so funny. Okay. Best. Stun in, but prepare to die. Alright. Saint Laurent. Beautiful. Deadly. Just totally no. Ugh. So cute. These Aquasuras. This little plastic bejeweled ankle strap is going to cut you worse than a trifling lunge and leave you battered, bruised, but beautiful, baby. Also, I got really beautiful comfortable shoes. Let me know if you worst a part two and three. Love you, kids.
