Kim Kardashian's snakeskin shoes cause a stink

Socialite Kim Kardashian has provoked the wrath of animal rights campaigners once again after stepping out in snakeskin shoes on Tuesday.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star upset activists after she wore thigh-high Christian Louboutin python boots while shopping in Paris, France with rapper boyfriend Kanye West.

Now outraged members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) have criticised the brunette beauty for her style choice.

PETA spokesperson Wendy Wegner tells entertainment website GossipCop.com, "They'd go well with a Dalmatian-fur coat, which is also illegal to sell in California and immoral to sell anywhere else."

It's not the first time the curvy star has clashed with PETA - she infuriated anti-fur protesters in 2010 when she allegedly wore two animal-hide coats in one day.
