pixiecrinkleThere are only a few things in life that I will argue are better when they cost more. Well, not better because they cost more, but that cost more, because they are better.
It takes a lot to get me to buy brand-name anything in the grocery store, but get me in a shoe store, and my underlying label snobbery will come out. I don't believe for a second that all expensive shoes will be comfortable, but in my experience, comfortable shoes cost more.
In that vein, while shopping for silver sandals for my sister's wedding yesterday, I came across a great bargain, and picked up these:
Original price: in the Sex & the City range, though not quite as much as Manolo Blahniks. Marked down 30% off just for being at DSW, then another 40% off for being on clearance, then another 15% off with coupon. Yep, still a bit pricey, but no more than I'd pay for Docs or Birkenstocks, or Dansko clogs, all of which are wonderfully comfy shoes, but not so work friendly as these.
I have glamorous feet today. And I'm towering over all my co-workers. Oh what fun.
