We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I've never spent more than $60 on a pair of shoes. Of course, I've been alternating between a rather ratty pair of sneakers and a black pair of NurseMates for the past two years, so shoes are not on my must-have list.

Oooh, I like the first ones in the not-black! They're adorable.

I agree! What is with me and the orange shoes lately? I have 2-3 pairs already that I rarely wear because I hardly ever wear orange. But so cute!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like these Remix shoes, but I'd never spend that much not on boots.

In NY we went shopping with some of the rich relatives. Sax was a hoot. Even on sale, I only found one pair of shoes in my price range. Cousin is looking at Jimmy Choos and shit like that she swears is comfy and worth the cost.

Not my life!

Because books.

I know, -t! But I feel like with a spring dress, it would almost work as a neutral. In my head, anyway.

Something like the Deco, or the Gramercy.

Oh, I need the Gramercy. They'd go with everything!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My Doc Martens are magical. Magical I tell you. Comfy, water-tight, magic.

As soon as my feet are surgeried and reach a permanant size I'll be buying them whenever possible.

Oh, those are good, Holli. I love anything spectatorish. Too bad my need for shoes is probably at an all time low.

Because books.

In love. IN. LOVE.

I've spent around $100 on good leather boots that will last, so actually buying these? Not happening. But man, do I want them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My Doc Marten steel toed Mary Janes are magical. They're solid, heavy but not uncomfortably so, and do a sort of femme dowdy that I really like.

Which reminds me, I need to get the straps on my old character shoes fixed, because the new character shoes just aren't comfy. What a waste. My feet don't make their mind up until a few days into wearing new shoes.

I sort of see what you mean. They'd be so cheerful on grey Mondays, too.

These are the boots I almost bought at Saks. For $99, perfectly workable.
