Ok….I LOVE high fashion and anything couture…..BUT,  sometimes (actually, most of the time) I just can’t afford to pay the ridiculous prices that a lot of things I like have!  So, I have to make do somehow!  And, that is why I absolutely adore Downtown LA…..aside from its smell or the fact that it gets dangerous after 5pm.  But, aside from risking your life, the shopping is AWESOME!!!!

I was there over the weekend because where else can you buy yourself a complete head-to-toe outfit under $100?! If you know of other places, do share.  I love bargain shopping!  Anyway, this weekend I came across some killer shoes by a cheap-o brand called Promise.  It’s comparable to Anne Michelle, Wild Diva, Bamboo, etc.   I wanted them so badly, but forced myself not to buy them……and now I just spent 3 hours online trying to find them so that I can finally buy them because I just can’t take it anymore…I know, I’m such an idiot.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the ones I was looking for….HOWEVER, I did come across these 2 sites, Urban Original and Shoe Ocean, that sold all these shoes in the picture above for under $40.  Seriously, all these shoes are all under $40!!!  I know, I know….They probably will hurt your feet, will make them sweat and stink…..but at least you’ll be a hot stinky mess that only spent $40!

These ones were the ones I thought were the best, and you should probably stick to the color black when it comes to buying inexpensive shoes….it hides the inconsistencies better 😉

Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed rummaging through these sites and finding a few pairs that I wanted.  I’m sure you’ll have a blast looking through them too!
