roping me in

Edit: I got an email from Endless.com and they're offering 20% off select espadrilles. You have to spend $80+ to get the discount and OF COURSE the Steve Madden's pictured below are $79.95...come on, 5 cents! Let me slideeeee....

For a few seasons now I've been craving a pair of pretty espadrille wedges. These have been on my wishlist for awhile but the price tag has kept me from taking the plunge. They hardly ever go on sale and if they do, my size is usually sold out by then.

Stuart Weitzman "Alex" - Jimmy Choo "Phoenix"

I found affordable alternatives, but with shoes I kinda believe in the whole "you get what you pay for" thing.

Steve Madden "Fantasik" - Wanted "Samantha"

Comfort is always a plus but negligible since both high-end and low-end shoes can be killer or heaven on the feet. With espadrilles, my main concern is that the roping will come undone.

So what do I do, go steep or go cheap?

You can go for the affordable Steve Madden "Fantastik" but for the black ones, the Jimmy Choo "Phoneix" is cuter

It doesn't help that the first two are much cuter -_-..... damn price tags!

I guess out of the bottom two, I like the Madden's better.

Steve Madden makes pretty good shoes! :) I love the one you have pictured there as well. I really want a pair of this kind of shoes too. So cute with a dress during the summer! :)

I say go cheap, unless it's an investment piece, which this is more of a seasonal shoe. Steve Madden is still border like kinda spendy and he's great! Can't wait to see which ones you get.

For these kind of espadrille wedges, I would probably go cheap, although the jimmy choos are very pretty =)
