Urban Outfitters: Bargainous?

One of the pictures from the previous post renewed my desire for metallic jazz shoes (Yes, I did stop wanting them for a bit). I guess the boy in the photo wasn't wearing jazz shoes exactly, but I wouldn't even know where to start looking for a cheaper version of his Louis Vuitton kicks. Although I do want them immensely, even though they are men's shoes with a slightly odd look. My search for the perfect metallic jazz shoe started at Urban Outfitters, because I remembered they had two different types, one cheap, one expensive. A friend of mine tried on the cheap pair a while ago and informed me that they were uncomfortable, but I decided it might be a good time to try to convince myself the more expensive pair was worth the money. Well, imagine my surprise when I found that the shoes had been reduced from their sale price of $88 to $20! Score! Of course, I am currently riddled with doubt as to why these shoes are so reduced (do they pinch or something?), but they are a pretty good brand and I want them. I'll spend all night changing my mind and then finally make a decision tomorrow, I suppose. And then I need to find a fedora and black skinny pants, which is something I've been meaning to do for ages anyway. I don't want to copy the boy's look exactly, but I do covet everything he's wearing.

Because I'm in a good mood, I think I'll share some of the cheap, cute things I found at Urban tonight.








The formatting is being all screwy, so I can't write the price under each item, but the jazz shoes are $20, like I said earlier, and also come in black. The flats are $6.99, and also come in leopard print and covered in sail boats. The first two dresses are $15, and the last one is $20. Check out Urban Outfitters for lots of great bargains! (Wow...never thought I'd say that...)

Arrgh, I lost a wonderful pair of cheap silver jazz shoes on ebay a week ago, and they were exactly my size too, which is a rare find. :Z

I feel your pain. I just lost a pair of granny boots that I was bidding on because they had lower heels and were cheaper than the pair I fear I'll eventually buy. Grr.
