if i had a lot of money...

...i would buy shoes. lots and lots and lots of shoes. and then some. even without any money, i bought two pairs of shoes in the last month. well, i needed a pair of sneakers, and also needed closed toed shoes for an interview (they're so cute). and i still long for more. of all the unlimited wants and scarce resources...

i met someone over the weekend who's an avid ebay shopper and all she buys from there are shoes. apparently, she bought 12 pairs of shoes in the last 4 months! that's going a bit overboard, isn't it? and she's in an income bracket where she gets tax credits (long story about how the conversation got around to taxes), so her income can't be all that high. i guess she goes on her hubby's income when paying for the shoes. i'm proud to say that i have some restraint! (or do i?)

and yet, on this first nite alone, and slightly scared, i got around to looking at shoes online (started with ebay as i was thinking abt that lady) and i went to the steve madden site to find if i could find the pair i've been eyeing in different stores since i got back from b'desh. haven't had the heart to buy them because, honestly, i hardly wear strappy shoes. i LOVE them, but where am i to wear them? i certainly can't be walking to school in those delicate heels. but are they not beautiful? i can't really decide which style i like better...so if i had the money, i'd probably buy both.

the question is, am i going to eventually cave and get one pair??????????????????

Fashion Police deilberations:

Hmmm those shoes...they're alright, but they're not "ooh, drop dead"...maybe the brown ones (they're funkier), but the silver ones don't seem anything that special, its "in", and very "wear with the jeans for a Beyonce-wannabe down the club" look, but then everyone's doing that these days.

Manolos, K Coles and Jimmy Choos oh where would we be without them :)

well, that's the whole point...i can't afford to even think about manolos, kenneth coles and jimmy choos...steve madden at least is borderline affordable, and i can think about buying a pair. i think if i had the money, i'd only buy jimmy choos...manolos maybe a little bit too funky and out there for me, but maybe one pair of those. jimmy choos are wonderful for sure :)
