Marc Jacobs Patent Leather Black HeelThe truth is, I need validation. And I figure the only worthy (and/or willing) people to give it to me, are my sugar friends, so here's the story:
I go into Bloomingdale's looking for a reasonable daytime shoe that I can walk in easily. (I'm going to New York next week and wanted something other than my boots to wear) So I find a cute wedge heel with an ankle strap - brown, comfortable, but still chic. I try it on. It works. I'm ready to check out. But then I see it. The most beautiful Marc Jacobs black patent leather heel I have ever seen in my life. And it's on sale. And then I realize it's 50% off the already marked down price. And it's my size. The only one left in Bloomingdale's and it's my size!
Needless to say, I bought them (both the sensible shoe and the lovely, perfect, divine Marc Jacobs). So my question is this: Justified purchase or silly splurge? The original price was $350, marked down to $209, then 50% off of that which made them just over $100 total.

1hellz yeah, if you love them get them... I think that is a good price for a good pair of shoes
2Heck yeah! Those shoes are hot!
3Don't even question it. A designer buy that you can wear for more than one season for $100-yea!
4YES! YES! and YES again! kudos!
5lol, I didn't say totally worth it since I'm a Payless wh*re, but yes. For Marc Jacobs that was a steal. I wouldn't have done it myself, but I understand why you did.
6Good deal for Marc Jacobs, but you could find a better deal if you are looking specifically for black patent pumps.
and yes, payless has some awesome shoes right now. i just got a pair of abaete pumps for 25 bucks. the were a limited edition.
7Thanks guys! I love your comments!
8A definite must have...they are a classic pump, and if you had passed them up with hopes of finding a cheaper version you never would have found any with a retro heel like those.
