Nina Dobrev has a huge shoe problem in St. Tropez: uncomfortable or fine?

Just know, I never thought I’d be writing about Nina Dobrev’s poor feet this week. But here we are. Nina was in St. Tropez this week to attend Leonardo DiCaprio’s big fundraiser for his Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation. Many, many ladies showed up. Lots of models, obviously, and Leo’s official girlfriend Kelly Rohrbach, plus some actresses like Nina and Michelle Rodriguez.
When I glanced through these photos yesterday, Nina barely even registered, mostly because I was mostly looking for Kelly Rohrbach, and then secondarily I was like “WTF is Michelle Rodriguez wearing?” But these photos of Nina began trending on several gossip sites (this was the top story on The Daily Mail for several hours!). You know why? Because of this poor girl’s feet. Nina crammed her feet into a too-small pair of Stuart Weitzman heels and her baby toes were like “OMGGGG HELP ME” and her big toe was like “FML” and her heel was like “BLIIIISTER.” Here are some closeups and you can see some additional foot photos here.
OUCH. I’ve never really understood this, probably because I’m incapable of wearing anything this uncomfortable. If I tried on a pair of shoes that did THIS to my feet, I’d be all “nope” and “I didn’t even want to wear those shoes anyway.” The only time I can really handle foot pain is when I’m breaking in a new pair of sneakers and I get new-shoe blisters on my heels or baby toes (don’t ask, I’m not sure why either). But even then, I’m not cramming my feet into obviously too-small shoes. Did Nina choose these shoes last-minute? Were they someone else’s shoes? So many questions.
Her dress is Reem Acra, by the way. I like it.
