Actually, I can understand paying more for a bag than shoes or clothes. No matter how old you get, or how much you lose or gain, a bag still fits, and they can often be repaired!

Heh maybe if I could keep a purse looking new I'd spend more, but in all honesty I'm just rough on stuff.

I'll keep that saying in mind when I ask for a very nice purse for my next birthday.

That is why I don't buy uber-expensive shoes. I quickly shred the soles on everything from tennis shoes to dress shoes with all the walking I do on rough surfaces.

I've just found that more expensive shoes are more comfortable. Esp heels or going out shoes. Regular day to day shoes I buy cheap ones or vintage flat boots. I can't wear heels that aren't real leather bc they never mold to your feet and I get blisters really easily, not cute.

I drag my feet when I walk too.

They LOVE her! they are her little drones. There was one person who posted basically what I think, that money can't buy style and that poster was pretty much crucified. I'll PM you the link.

I agree, I have to have real leather, but I will never have any from the top designers. My big, wide Dutch feet probably wouldn't fit in the finest heels anyway.

First you said you have a big Dutch head, and now big wide dutch feet?

I did however find a pair of worn and refinished Balenciaga booties at Nordstrom Rack. I got them for $70, these are usually $900 boots. Who cares they were worn and returned? but they are NOT comfortable, they are too high.

$900 The heels are too high? I have big Dutch height too, so I won't wear over a 3 inch heel, if that.

* You would definitely charge me for extra material if I ordered a hat from you, lol.

Ok I gotta know, what is your head size?
