Seeing Red

June 18, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

As a young fashionista, I’ve always been attracted to the glamour of that famous Louboutin red sole. Unfortunately I don’t have a casual thousand dollars to drop on one pair of shoes (rent, anyone?). So when I saw these beautiful flats at TJ Maxx sporting that signature pop of color and a significantly decreased price tag, I had to get them.

seeingred2I believe you can look fabulous at any price point. But when I have the opportunity to collect high end pieces without the high end cost (see my thrifted Armani), I almost always do.

    Amazing that you found Louboutins at TJ’s AND they’re flats (given your penchant) AND they’re in keeping with your style. Congrats – love when the fashion stars align. 🙂

    I’ve always wanted to find high end pieces for a cheaper price, but unfortunately I’m not gifted with the “spot it” sense. Amazing that you found them, and they’re amazing! This is going to be my summer goal: find Louboutins!
