Looking hot is the best revenge, and spiked heel shoes will help when you dig your heels into the heel. Just ask Demi Moore! She may have still been wearing her wedding ring at the premiere of Margin Call in New York City earlier this week – along with a red leopard-print dress by Zac Posen – but it was her shoes that announced she’s a force to be reckoned with. The Kasha pump, a feminine shape in soft black velvet out of Brian Atwood’s Fall/Winter 2011 collection, isn’t your average feminine five-incher. Adorned with prickly spikes all over the heel, these will give you a grand exit. Even the sexy pull-tab, reaching up the slimmest part of your ankle, is adorned with sharp studs. And why not? Pointy heels are already dagger-like as they are. Studs just add glamorous insult to injury. Yes, the Kasha is for the lady who is not afraid of kicking some ass. We would expect nothing less from Demi!

Or for a sprinkling of studs all around, pull on Atwood’s studded Inez boots, an elaphe ankle style with panels of spikes. They don’t have the element of surprise, but they do still pose a fierce threat. On Net-a-Porter for $1,880.
