British socialite Pixie Geldof turned 23 on September 17, 2013. The pixie-haired beauty celebrated her birthday at China Tang, a restaurant serving Cantonese recipes in a chic setting evoking 1930s Shanghai, right inside the iconic Dorchester Hotel in London.

It was a small gathering, but some big names were invited to the private occasion. To name a few, One Direction’s Harry Styles and former Oasis frontman Noel Gallagher. Of course, we’re not here to talk about the men at the party, are we?

For her birthday, the third daughter of Bob Geldof and Paula Yates slipped into a very subdued three-piece outfit that included a black cropped top, a blue leather skirt, and a gray wool coat.
She accessorized with a leopard-print purse, but the ultimate highlight of the night was her shoes.

Completely mesmerizing, yes? You can’t stop looking at them, can you?
Pixie’s dazzling heels are from Miu Miu’s Spring 2013 collection. These crystal sandals are crafted from metallic leather and feature 5.25-inch-tall gold mirror heels. Of course, the highlights of the shoes are the jewels surrounding the front straps and the 1.75-inch-thick platforms.
Suffice it to say that if Cinderella had the option to wear sandals instead of “glass slippers,” these shoes would be her top choice. They’re the fanciest of the fancy and the sparkliest of the sparkly — just perfectly perfect for a princess.

The sandals retailed at a hefty $2,100 last spring, so even if they are still available, the practical and frugal you will probably discourage such an extravagant purchase. Or maybe not. Come to think of it, what crazy or over-the-top thing would you be willing to do to own a pair of such shoes? Or what would you give?
