I Just Love...
...these shoes!!!!
Everyday, I get emails from GAP, Old Navy and a store called Piperlime. Everyday, I delete their emails without opening them, but I never click the button to unsubscribe. What if I might want to spend $3o0 on a pair of shoes? Yesiree, these gorgeous suede, leather lined, patent leather heeled oxfords cost $300. And there, my friends, is the rub. Even if I had $300 to throw away on shoes that will be good for only one season and not return for another 20 years, (I had shoes just like these when I was in high school) I wouldn't. So I sit and wait until a reasonable facsimile arrives in Target, Payless or even Dillard's for significantly under $100.
Until then I shall be happy to wear my teacher shoes to work.

Being comfy in your shoes is the most important thing!
Only wjen I buy a pair of shoes, even if they cost £1 or £10, I make them last for at least 3/4 years...
I used to buy a lot in charity shops, jumble sales...until they left me with a 3 and half centimiters difference between one leg and the other, so I need now to spend a bit more money in shoes because the hospital needs to make a shoe rise.
Still, the mnost expensive I bought was £50
I had to sepnd over £100 for Sarita's Uggs though
U$300 is nothing
what annoys me is seeing regular day workers who spend over £1000 in a handbag...
I could understand the shoe thing: if you are well heeled, less probabilities you have of back pain, probs like that...
but a handbag?
with what I earn in a month?
bah.
the world is mad.
