hate to say it (Fifi doesn't like to dis fellow French-folk), but the knockoffs look better! they are trends, folks. is there really any justification for spending $900 on a pair of shoes? if you have any doubts, think of donating the difference to a worthwhile charity. you could probably make some peoples lives a lot better with $800, right?
Bravo, Budget Babe, for once again letting us be cutting edge without breaking the bank. And for those with more money than sense, get the cheapies, and donate the rest to a worthy cause. If you're still not convinced, think of the tax break you can get. Want more reason? If you work for a big corporation, you can double your donation if your company has a matching gift program. Win-Win: you get the style, the charity gets double your donation. Feels good, don't it?
