They're too much, IMO. But it is clear that you tend toward higher, pointier and thinner heels than most other people, and that is okay. Everyone is different. I can't imagine an outfit (except wide-legged pants, perhaps) where those would not strike me as stripper shoes, but you like a different type of shoe, so they might be just right for you - and you might have an outfit that is perfect with them that I haven't thought of. Ultimately, if you have the funds for them and they strike your fancy, they are right for you. I have shoes I had to buy because I adored them so, and I've never worn them, so practicality isn't my biggest concern!
