Stage performance is a tough gig, so this old stripper stiletto decided to leave the biz for greener pastures. Upcycled from a shiny size eight gold heel, the Glam Gold Stiletto Heel ($70) was sanded, drilled for drainage, and then planted with natural, organic fertilizer and a "blue chalksticks" succulent.

In addition to plenty of other treasures, French model and designer Ines de la Fressange used a handbag and a single boot as decorative accessories to dress up a chest of drawers in her office in Paris. Seeing as the items are works of art in their own right, and her other furnishings are downright glamorous as well, I think she's pulled it off. But just any old shoe wouldn't do. Do you decorate Read more

In other words, I am not in love, but I'm not hating either. What do you think? To post your selections go to Read more

Ok, they have all-terrain vehicles for the road. What about all-terrain vehicles for your feet? Nike will be introducing (not quite yet) a radical new shoe design made for land and water. Well not quite radical, KEEN has been making shoes like this for years (and they are a much more environmentally conscious company than Nike - but enough of the rant). They're lightweight, and the sole is Read more
Want to get running with the Nike+ iPod, but not a huge fan of the expensive Nike+ sneaks? Check out the RunAway.

Another great feature is that you can slide the receiver into the RunAway for easy Read more
