Shoe game...

Confession:  I believe the more you pay for something the better it is.  While looking for some new black booties I found some cute ones for AROUND 50 BUCK-A-ROO'S!!!  So I thought it would be fun to have a little poll and see if you can actually tell which ones are the most expensive (I know you can feel quality, but can you see it?)  Look through and vote (don't cheat) and then click on the pictures to find out! 

#1

#2

#3
Miss Sixty at ShopStyle

Now vote:


I did find some cute black booties *I need* here but will be watching and waiting for them to hit sale!

  1. YES! I was right!

    What did it for me was #1 the leather was way too shiny, so obviously fake, and on #2 the sole didn't look like it was attached correctly. To be fair, though, I don't like #3 looks like a $200+ shoe, though (one of the biggest reasons I picked it was the styling of the photo looked more expensive!) - but all the price might be hidden in the way it feels on your foot. I think #2 visiually might be worth a shot, especially with the low price tag (and cute bow!) - I actually ALMOST picked it!

  2. Hi Tricia. I received my birthday discount in the mail yesterday. Yea! Although the candle was cracked. :-( Did you receive yours yet?

  4. aha! i got it right too! That was fun!

    I thought the first one was a bit too shiny, too. The second one is quite cute and i would easily purchase it, real leather or not. I agree that you do pay for quality materials and and longevity (most of the time!), but I don't have any issues with getting an inexpensive item if there the cuteness and comfort quotient meet my approval :)

  5. Ladies, when do they typically send out the bday discounts? First of month? Thanks.

  6. I just tried some on yesterday at famous footwear that look very similar to the ones you want. They weren't quite as high and hubs thought they were hideous. I guess I need to add that one to the list too. Don't shop with hubs.

  7. The BCBG boots are to die for. I love them. I'm also in the market for some booties right now and I'm not having much luck finding anything I like.

  8. I knew #1 was the cheapest from the shiny look too, but I was wrong...I voted #2...I am not a huge fan of #3 to be honest. Sometimes you can really be fooled! =) I was hoping to get a birthday discount card to but so far, no such luck!

  10. The birthday discounts usually arrive around two weeks before your birthday!!

  11. I voted for #3 but I also wonder if the shopbop way of posing shoes influenced me subconsciously? They looked the most pricey to me, regardless.

  12. Haha...I was wrong, but that's no surprise. They're all so cute though! I love your taste in shoes!

  13. Hooray! I was right! #1 the leather just looked to plastic and shiny. #2 the sole gave it away, you could see some of the glue. And #3 the leather just looked softer and the photo looked more 'styled' so I knew it had to be the most expensive.

  15. I'm horrible at games like this, but I'll guess #1 since I like them best and isn't that always the way it works? LOL

  16. My mom always said I'd pick the most expensive thing on the rack - the same was true for this poll, lol.

  17. Yay -- I was right, too! I think the leather is noticeably nicer on the third pair, and something seems off about the toe box on the second. BUT the details on the second pair are adorable. Love 'em! What a great game!

  18. I guessed right! I love shoe posts. :-)

  19. Ha! What a fun post! I picked #3. Definitely the highest quality of the bunch, but I think #2 is cutest!
