You know what kind of shoes perfectly complement a little black dress? Heels covered in comic book characters. If you love the idea of decoupaged shoes but don’t have the desire to create your own, Hell on Heels has you covered.
The Etsy seller offers a few choice designs like Wonder Woman, Avengers, Amazing Spider-Man, Rogue, and more. What I really like about these shoes is that every centimeter of surface is covered, even the heel part. That’s not easy. These pictures represent past designs; each pair is custom made and takes 12-14 days to complete.

After drooling over all the decoupage shoes on the internet (especially the Star Wars ones) for ages, I decided to figure out how to make my own. Because I love the animated series, I put the Clone Wars spin on them. It took several hours, but the process is very easy. I just decoupaged the images onto a cheap pair of black heels with Mod Podge and sealed everything with a glossy varnish. Tada!
These shoes were actually made during a nerd shoe craft party. Check out the other styles my friends and I put together here.

I don’t know how women tolerate wearing high heels in the first place (though I’ll admit they look great), but this is beyond insane. Thankfully, this is just a concept and no woman has been crazy enough to attempt it…yet.

The Fashion is strong with Jilliann Silva’s hand-painted Star Wars heels. At $275, these shoes are still a bargain—especially since you can request any kind of customization you like.

Jamie Ferraioli created these Super Mario shoes as a personal project, but I’m pretty sure they would sell like crazy if she took custom orders on her Etsy page.

I had eyeballs all over a pair of socks once—every step was pure agony. At least with heels, those extra eyes are off the ground.
These “Déjà Vu” shoes from Christian Louboutin cost $1595, but I’ll bet you could save around $1592 and stick some googly eyes to shoes you already have.

Teva knows that the biggest untapped market out there has to be the hippie fashionista/well-dressed feminine adventurer types. That’s why they made the logical decision to merge sandal with stiletto.
Who am I kidding? This is completely ridiculous—especially for $330. And if you still aren’t convinced that this is terrible, check out some of the suggested uses after the break.

Kobi Levi takes an artistic approach to his footwear, as evident in these “Chewing Gum” heels.
Although, when you combine this with some of the pieces after the break, you might wonder whether or not the artist within is a 16-year old boy.

No, I don’t mean they will turn you into a prostitute that hangs outside of Kmart. These heels recently shown off in Rodarte’s Fall 2010 collection actually feature illuminated heels—not to mention a cool futuristic look. Check out the video after the break (at around the 1:25 mark) to see the shoes in action.
