Cinderella’s Glass Slipper
I got to thinking about famous shoes and the only two I could come up with were Cinderella’s glass slipper and Dorothy’s ruby red slippers. I think both of these shoes are equally famous. I know I would love to have prince charming place a gorgeous glass slipper on my foot. And the way Dorothy makes it to the Emerald City in those sparkly red high heels is kick-ass. Both of these shoes have become popular for little girl playtime and Halloween costumes. I do see more girls prancing around in the ruby red slippers though.
What shoe do you think is more famous, Lovelies? The glass slipper or the ruby red slipper?

One of my favorite movies growing up was the Wizard of Oz, but I still like the glass slipper better. The romantic aspect of it I guess, Disney made girls have big dreams.

I think the glass slipper is more famous because more children knows about cinderella more than dorothy nowadays. And I think both slippers are equally gorgeous.

The glass slipper for sure. I don’t know why, but it seems magical. (:

Sneakers. They’re comfy.
haha, all jokes (ish) aside, even though I like the idea of a glass slipper, I think the practical one is the red pair. I don’t like my feet, and glass slippers doesn’t help it any way to disguise them.

Even though red is my favorite color, I must go with the glass slipper as I am a huge fan of Cinderella and it’s my nickname hehe.

I’d expect glass slippers to shatter and kill your feet.

K so what if you’re too overweight to wear glass slippers? You’ll just hear a *crunch* and start screaming as you see a lot of blood.
guest

Ruby Red, it’s all about being able to click your heels together and go to somewhere safe and comfortable instantly

Glass slippers, ’cause I’m a girl (& a hopeless romantic), so I’m going to have to side with Cinderella(:
But I do like the ruby slippers + it reminds me of home
