After gawking for many wee hours (full disclosure: I went to bed at 6 AM), it occurred to me that Jeffrey Campbell's exquisite line of couture kicks actually met reachable prices. I mean, you're not going to buy in bulk any time soon. But with a full-time job and some personal discipline, it's fully realizable to click that Purchase button. Inspiring.
I have a couple birthday checks from my grannies and granny-in-laws. That's $100. I got a check from Carnival Cruise, refunding my (pathetic) gambling card. That's another $10. I don't usually splurge on myself. I'm a bona fide sales-rack cruisin' thrift-store diva, all the way. But despite my thrifty impulse to sift the resell boutiques on Melrose, I think I might buy a pair of brand new shoes. By the way, if you suspect writing this blog post is helping me work through some "you're of value" bullshit, stop being right!
