While the top of these shoes have ordinary black sandal straps, the LED **[Alina](http://alinadesigns.com/scripts/prodList.asp?idCategory=4)**Shoes have a clear Cinderella heel that glows in brilliant colours.

They come in [different heel shapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vida-collection), from wedges to stilettos, and each pair is capable of glowing in red, green or blue as each shoe has three LEDs. Best of all, they start as low as $30!

Remember the [GPS shoes for prostitutes](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-heeled-shoes-with-gps-for-prostitutes)? While these Alinas aren't as high tech or functional, the digital hooker shoes were still the first thing to come to mind when I saw these light up shoes.
