Or at least I don’t think I can. At $128 a pop, they go straight from “really good way to keep my pedicure flawless” to “really bad way to spend $128.” I mean, boots that you only wear after you get a pedicure? Could there be anything more uselessly bourgie? (A grape peeler? A pillow fluffer? A pet-petter?)
Then again, I am blowing $25 per pedicure. And before all you can’t-believe-you-pay-for-that types go jumping down my throat, understand this: I am not giving up my pedicure. Yes, it’s an extravagance, and yes, I could just as easily do it on my own at home. But getting a pedicure is my one moment to put the baby down, put my feet up, and read about Gerard Butler's whereabouts. It's vital to the operation of my sanity.
So back to the equation: 6 months of boot weather at $25 bucks a pop means these boots will, in essence, keep me from wasting $150 this year alone. But is “not wasting more money” ever really a great reason to spend a bunch? Ladies, I ask: Is this a strange-but-good investment, or a terrible, terrible idea?
