This is fashion, baby. High fashion, low fashion, it doesn't matter to the tastemakers of the world. There's arguably nowhere the fashion scene is more vibrant, experimental, and on full display than New York. Just by walking down the street, you'll encounter people in full black-tie attire, and the person right behind them might be wearing 5 different patterns and fabrics. There are no real rules when it comes to styling your outfits. In New York, the only real fashion suggestion is to wear comfy shoes for your commute, and save your fashionable heels for strutting around town and showing off at the office. 

The people below have some intriguing senses of style! Some of these shoes seem to be designed just for the heck of it, like #3, which appears to be a combo of a snow boot, croc, and barefoot-toe shoes. What would be the ideal temperature or scenario for this odd footwear choice? I'm also a big fan of #8, a pair of heels that double as scuba-diving flippers. James Bond or his sidekicks are probably the only people who might need these, since Bond often finds himself swimming to safety and attending fancy parties. In the real world, rocking the scuba heels to a party will amuse everyone around you, and you'll probably be tripping a lot. 

Check out the fascinating fashion choices below. Then, this manager tried to be an intimidating figure during his first week of work, baffling all the employees around him who knew what they were doing.

    They have a designer bag, so maybe these shoes are high fashion

    Or maybe that's just what we're supposed to think.
