The Psyche Behind Stripper Shoes

I like them

I want them

I buy them.

I mean, I do take into consideration small details like: Will I be able to wear these to the office? Will these go with my largely masculine wardrobe? Will people think I have sex for money?

Ultimately, though, the predominant sentiment of "these-are-cool-I-want-them" wins out over every other attempt at logic I could make.

So: no, I probably can't wear these to the office. And no, there's a minimal chance that they'll go with anything from the majority of my predominately male-leaning wardrobe. And yes — I will look like Julia, pre-Richard.

Alas. As anyone who's ever paid excessive sums of money for something beautifully unusable/ likes 4inch heels/ has listened to T Swift's new album knows — sometimes,

the high is worth the pain.
