Victoria Beckham claims that heels help her concentrate on higher things.
But in these five-inch stilettos, it seems she needed all her brain power just to stay upright.
The 34-year-old looked to be struggling to walk in her orange Christian Louboutin creations.
The long, thin, gold-painted heels offered little in the way of support - even for Posh Spice's tiny frame.
Mrs Beckham was pictured arriving at the exclusive Los Angeles restaurant Beso wearing a classic strapless black dress and the £320 shoes.
She had dinner alongside actress Eva Longoria, but husband David was otherwise engaged.
Fashion expert Karen Kay said: 'There is a kinky element to this shoe. Victoria is trying to look sexy by teaming them with the black dress with a long zip up the back. She falls short though because the hanger ribbons are falling out over the dress. Overall it is quite a severe look but that suits her - you can imagine Victoria as a dominatrix in this outfit.
'There is a bit of an Eighties revival at the moment and the shape, colour and the style of the shoe reflects that.'
Mrs Beckham is of course far from the first celebrity to opt for this type of look.
Earlier this year Gwyneth Paltrow appeared in seven different pairs of stilettos in just four days as she promoted her latest film.
Shoe shops praised the 'Gwyneth Effect' after they reported a surge in customer interest in heels as tall as seven inches.
Selfridges reported a 35 per cent increase in sales of super high heels and said they were outselling flats by a ratio of five to one.
Mrs Beckham revealed earlier this year that she felt that wearing high heels boosted her brain power, because she simply could not concentrate in flat shoes.
She added that she avoided working out because she could not bear to be in trainers.
'I'd love to go to the gym, but I just can't get my head around the footwear.' And it appears Eva Longoria is taking more than just hairstyle advice from best friend Mrs Beckham.
