Charlotte Olympia Caters to Working Girls For Shoe Line — the Quirky Designer's 9 Craziest Pumps
Shoe crazy? Then this news will certainly excite you. Crazy shoe crazy? Well, then this news will definitely not excite you. Quirky designer Charlotte Olympia is launching new collections of shoes and handbags with a more conservative look to match the needs of everyday career women, reports WWD.
The sensible shoes will still have a bit of an Olympia touch with leopard print and peek-a-boo details, but will be boardroom appropriate with lower heels and fewer adornments. To pump up the quirk, though, each shoe will come in a briefcase box with a pair of pantyhose. The modern businesswoman’s tool kit, I suppose.
Here's hoping this doesn't mark the end of the crazy shoe designs that made Olympia a hit in the industry. She is one of the best in high concept accessories and unapologetically lives the “more is more” philosophy. Need proof? Here are nine of her craziest designs that have decidedly been deemed by Olympia NSFW — that is unless you work at a Charlotte Olympia store.

Coke shoes for the all-American. For the anti-Pepsi girl, of course.

Coral Reef
Perhaps one of the simplest of Olympia’s designs, but still best left far from the workplace… and, if we’re being honest, the beach too. (Could you trudge to sand in those shoes?)
