Pradaddiction

Created by: Tigger

Pronunciation: /pra-duh-DIK-shun/

Sentence: In order to combat her Pradaddiction, Carrie was sent to a rehab center where the patients were only allowed to wear Crocs, those cheap, ugly, plastic shoes. Luckily for her, after a few days, her co-dependant shopping buddies came up with a plan. They borrowed a utility van, smuggled her out of the rehab center and brought her straight to the mall downtown. 'No woman could ask for better friends,' thought Carrie, as rifled through her credit cards to find one that wasn't maxed-out.

Etymology: Prada - a well-known Italian fashion company; designer of clothing and shoes, commonly mentioned in S&TC (originally "Prada Brothers", founded in 1913 by Mario Prada in Milan) + Addiction - complusive need characterized by obsessive behavior (from Latin, addictus "assigned, surrendered")

COMMENTS:

BTW, I'm not in the 'fashion police' but I think those Crocs shoes are just about ugly enough to be banned in public... (check out: http://ihatecrocs.com/) - Tigger, 2008-06-02: 03:27:00

I agree...they make everyone's fett look twice their size, in juicy colours! - Nosila, 2008-06-02: 23:28:00

Sandalous

Created by: Nosila

Pronunciation: san dal us

Sentence: Penny Loafer had no sole. She bought every pair of shoe in sight, whether she could afford them or not. She could not toe the line until she was strapped. Her boyfriend, Spike Oxford, thought she talked with a brogue and was about to give her the boot, as her behaviour became more sandalous. But Penny realized that if she pumped herself up, became less of a sneaker and held her tongue, she could over come this disease that Dr. Scholl specialized in. She was moved by the good doctor's words..."When you leave your footsteps in the sand, make sure they are not the mark of a heel!"

Etymology: Scandalous (giving offense to moral sensibilities and injurious to reputation) & Sandals (a shoe consisting of a sole fastened by straps to the foot)

Sentence: Julie was a tough nut for the craic. She needed to be tough on account of her choice of footwear. The only thing tougher than Julie was Julie's feet, bulletproof they where. Very hardshell feet and a weakness for Gucci shoes or any strapless 6" heel, that's our Julie.
