So I got BCBG to put these on hold for me, 1 last pair in my size, in a beautiful soft orange. I adore orange and have been looking for a pair of orange shoes that aren't too loud. Also they're incredibly comfortable and look so cute on. My dilemma is that things are a little tight right now so at $190 they are almost my whole clothing budget for the month. To get or not to get???

Don't get me wrong - I like BCBG, but I'd pay about half that price for those shoes. It might be best to wait for a sale...or code. Sorry.

is the color poppy?  i LOVE that color.  just in general, those shoes run exactly one half size small, so you need to buy one half size larger.  maybe try that?  or else get them and have a shoe guy stretch them.  those shoes look sooooo sharp on.  to be honest, i didn't like them initially, but once i saw them on, i fell in love. 


so my vote is yes.

I meant my budget is tight. The shoes fit fine.

I'd wait for a sale, too. At least, that's what I'm doing right now regarding my dream shoes...


They are beautiful but probably not worth quite that much.

I like them and I know how hrd it is to find orange shoes that aren't neon-ish, but I think BCBG shoes are only worth it on sale.

I say get them.  $190 is a lot, but I think it is a fair price for a pair of shoes that you'll really love.  Have you already thought of a bunch of outfits you could wear with them?

wait for a sale... BCBG shoes are usually extremely uncomfortable and i only buy them if they are really really cute and on sale!

Too much $$$, in my opinion.

I agree, wait 'til they go on sale.  They are too expensive for the style, they're cute but not $190 amazing.
