Money To Blow: Million Dollar Shoes for Valentine's Day

Have a cool million to blow this Valentine's Day? If you do, then you may want to trip to Leon's of Beverly Hills. Through August 1st, the fine jeweler is displaying the world's first pair of hand-strassed, diamond-encrusted million-dollar shoes, courtesy of high-end fashion brand Crystal Heels™.

Crystal Heels founder Evelyn Fox started with a peep-toe Giuseppe Zanotti pump in size 37 (U.S. size 6). For three weeks, Fox and her team painstakingly placed 11,000 diamonds on the shoes. Each of the .03-, .05-, .07-, .10-, .20-, and .40-carat stones is meticulously spaced for maximum visual appeal -- and the end result is GRAND.

Perfectly symmetrical, The Million Dollar Shoes are literally covered in precious stones. From the five-inch stiletto heel to the demure peep-toe, every inch of the shoes -- including the stitching -- sparkles as only diamonds can.
