luxe for less.

I've had my eye on pretty much every shoe from the Valentino Rockstud Collection for quite some time.  Classic shoe silhouettes with a stud providing juuust the right amount of edge is right up my alley.  However with price tags starting at $695 (and upwards to $1295), those puppies weren't finding a home in my closet anytime soon! Imagine my excitement when I scored these Chinese Laundry jelly flip flops for a much lower price at TJ Maxx!

I mean, are they pretty much identical or what? And I can say that they are quite comfortable, which doesn't always hold true for inexpensive shoes.

Go get yourself some!
