View From The Other Side

posted in Pretty, Shiny Things |

It’s official.  I’ve crossed the river.  (Goodbye Soul!  Hello Cute New Shoes!)  But it wasn’t my fault.  See, the shoes were on sale (and $200 is several degrees more reasonable to spend on shoes than $300) and the only size they had left happened to be my size (7, in case anyone ever wants to buy me shoes).  Besides, it was recently my birthday so this is like a birthday gift to myself (thank you to all of you who sent me birthday wishes; I hope the rest of you feel bad for forgetting!).  =)  Plus, I’ve been wanting them FOREVER.   Or at least since April.  

Anyways, clearly fate was telling me I must have these shoes.  I still haven’t managed to return the other ones so I guess I technically have two pairs of $200 shoes.  I really should be shot.  (*hangs head in shame, secretly smiling at thought of how cute shoes will look on feet*)

    There’s a big psychological difference between spending $200 and $300 on shoes. When I picked up my Ferragamo flats at SFA yesterday, a pair of exquisite $335 (on sale from $485) Sergio Rossi flats caught my eye too, but I was able to resist. I can’t believe that they have “Designer” and Premium Designer” shoes now. Our Marc Jacobs and Ferragamo shoes fall only in the lowly “Designer” catagory.

    Oh, and despite your earlier post, no one can shoot you for teetering in those heels because they’re no longer $300.

    Luckily, I have no aspirations to even own “designer” shoes. I wouldn’t even buy these except they’re so d*mn cute! And the shoe gods have apparently demanded it be so. Who am I to disobey? =) I ordered them online, so there’s still a chance I’ll hate them when they get here. I’ll keep you all posted as I’m sure you are all riveted by this news.

    it will keep me up at night wondering if the shoes have arrived yet, and if they fulfill all of your shoe wishes!

    Bringing you to my reality: That’s how much I earned tutoring last month.

    Enjoy your shoes. 🙂
