Anonymous asked: For the people who can't afford expensive shoes, I think $80 is reasonable for something name brand and flashy. Target is doing the same thing. Don't knock people who can't afford expensive fashion, $80 is still too much for me and I look fashionable. It's easy to look fashionable when you're rich, I would like to see you try it on a budget.

i think you misunderstood the meaning in my 48 words. before jumping to snark, you should know that i live on a budget, anonymous. my life is one large budget, but aside from that, my point [however vague] was that i find it silly to spend $80 on a pair of mass-produced, poorly-designed heels when you can go to a marshall’s or dsw and buy the product of a respected brand made with quality materials for half the price. payless shoes are notoriously cheap in construct and are known to fall apart after only a few wears.

side note: i have never spent more than $60 on footwear.
