450 pounds for a pair of ghastly shoes? That you can't even run away in?

Never.

I like to be comfortable and I like pink and sparkly as much as the next person but this sort of consumption is obscene. And it's certainly not particular to the UK. I think the US invented the middle-class princess. It started with the damned Princess phone!

One of which, a pink one, my neighbor had and I covet to this day.



The parents can spend their money how they want to - but it's just such a terrible lesson.
