HB shoes

Can someone PLEASE tell me, did these get released already and I'm just slow and didn't see them in Starplaza? Or are they just hiding from everybody? ;) Because I've only just come across them!

EDIT: My bad, I found them under the 'search' method, and they came up there before they came under 'new' items. They have now surfaced:

Don't really think much of any of them to be honest!

Opinions?

New craze?

Everywhere I look I'm seeing posts on this black Hot Buys bow. But people aren't using it as a bow...they're using it as their bangs! Genius idea, but I don't think it would suit my doll, plus, I've been using mine as a collar bow with the Hot Buys broach for a few weeks now. (Which I thought it was always how it was intended to be used!)

Not 100% sure who first thought of this idea, (different people saying different things) but everybody's catching on quick! If I find out I'll edit this post, I'll post some pictures of people rocking this craze when I get the time!

What do you think of it all?
