Who says light-up shoes are just for kids?!

A woman was pictured lighting up the streets of New York in a pair of $2,495 battery-operated Jimmy Choo heels.

While kicks like these could definitely come in hand for locating fallen keys (and spotting loose change), there's darkness at the end of this tunnel. The battery only has a shelf life of about 100 hours.
