Israeli designer Kobi Levi has designed a pair of [animal high heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/esenes-worldwide-frog-clogs) to add style to your step.

The shape is delicate, with [pink leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-mule-1) combinations that make the shoe look like a dancing flamingo. Due to this elegant combination of detailing the shoes take on an animalistic element, and will make any wearer look ready to dance. Designer Kobi Levi has allowed his creative mind to wander on this set of footwear, and he demonstrates his talents by taking an [ordinary pair of high heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vida-collection) and giving them new life.

These shoes are also practical, as the flamingo element is worked in without being obtrusive. Pair this with a longer skirt and you will be ready for a night on the town!
