Posh Puzzle-Inspired Pumps

The Taylor Says 'James' High Heels Make Crossword Puzzles Look Chic

For sale on the Taylor Says eboutique, the 'James' high heels feature the most puzzling pattern.

Crossword puzzles are a fun activity found in most newspapers. When it comes to online retailer Taylor Says, the brain-busting activity also makes an intricate shoe design. The 'James' high heels feature a sleek pointed toe pump silhouette and an ankle strap. The red heel stands at 4 1/2 inches while a crossword puzzle print takes over the leather upper and sole. Though it is not a real puzzle, such words as 'babe,' 'toys,' 'moxie,' and 'bling' are written inside of the little white squares.

The Taylor Says eboutique is now selling these pumps alongside other eccentrically designed footwear.
