WTF: Today Show's Ann Curry?

I think the pictures here say it all.

Ann Curry conducted an interview with the folks from the new reality show Little People, Big World. (NBC Today Show, 4/9/07)

But her NBC stylist's choice of shoes has her looking less springy and more like Dorothy with those shiny, ruby red slippers from the Wizard of Oz.

I just found the shoe choice strange.
