For me, a villain is someone who knowingly causes another person harm to get what they want. And if the villain can wear stylish footwear while doing it? Extra points.<\/p>\n<p>1). Malory Archer\/Lucille Bluth:\u00a0 As spy agency director-mother for our hero Sterling Archer or mother to the bumbling Bluth family, this classy lady is always ready for a cocktail and a quip.<\/p>\n<p>2). O\u2019Brien from Downtown Abby: For the longest time I hoped O\u2019Brien had some snakelike extra eyes hidden under her forehead curls. But alas, no. No matter as Lady Cora\u2019s maid, O\u2019Brien isn\u2019t above using her position to benefit herself. To wit: don\u2019t let her draw you a bath.<\/p>\n<p>3). Irene Adler from Sherlock: Love her wit, \u201cbattle armor\u201d and how she wears Sherlock\u2019s coat. Stabbing him with a hypodermic needle was just foreplay. She was a perfect match for our hero. Come back Irene!<\/p>\n<p>4). Pam from True Blood: Whether in the novels or on HBO, Pam says it like it is, \u201cI\u2019m so tired of hearing about Sookie and her stupid fairy vagina.\u201d She also dresses fabulously and gets to stand around Erik the Vampire when he\u2019s naked. How do I get a job like this?<\/p>\n<p>5). Claire from House of Cards: Gotta say, her hair first sold me. Shallow I know. But her appearance was so calculated, I hung on her every groomed syllable. The episode where she has the business manager sack her whole office then fires her? One gutsy lady.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading,<\/p>\n<p>Lana<\/p>\n<p>Like to talk villains female or otherwise?
