I had been doing fairly well. I’m not on an official Spending Diet, but I hadn’t bought a pair since March. And then I saw these:
First of all, they’re Bandolino. I love this brand; I consider it to be both stylish and functional. Any pair of Bandolino shoes that I have bought has never failed me. Secondly, they’re peep-toe. I’m a sucker for peep-toe. And the platform makes them much more deceptively comfortable than one would think. Lastly, the pattern was unique and eye-catching. Black peep-toes should be a staple in every woman’s wardrobe, and latest fad is the patent leather nude one. I wanted something different but still neutral.
