Yah, I know- they’ve been around forevverrrr. I just couldn’t get over the fact that they just look silly. But- I’m over it, and I need a pair for myself now.

Taking cue from the gladiator sandal, the lattice heel has stolen the spotlight for 2009. Pair these striking heels with a summer dress, or even carry them into the fall season by adding tights.

YSL’s modern black and white collection features cage heels in both metallic and patent leather. Topshop followed suit with their cream and silver lattice heels.

P.S my photoshop skills need some polishing, but that gladiator kid is funny-right?
