okay, put a note on your door saying how much you love the shoes.
Wait a month (they might go down in $).
DO you want them the same as you did before?
and also look around with the same amount of money for the shoes. See what you would rather have/

You probably will regret it. 4 times your paycheck? You will wear them for a while, then they will sit at the back of your closet. Try to find some knockoffs that are very similar but cost waaaaaaaaaaaay less.

I would buy them. You can just save up more later. Jimmy Choo’s are the BOMB! they are comfertable. But, if you want to save, that’s just as great.

Ok, this decision is really yours. What I would do is to look for shoes that are similar to the shoes I wanted. I hope I helped answer your question. Good Luck on coming to a conclusion.
With love,

As amazing as they may be (trust me, I like designer items too) they really aren’t worth it if they are 4 times your paycheck. And yes, you will likely regret the purchase. Think about what they are: protective coverings for your feet. And then think about how many useful,neccessary things you could buy for the same amount of money (food, basic clothes, etc) Finally, find a similar pair for much less and then realize how much money you’ve saved. Sure, nothing can compare to a pair of Choos or Manolos or any of those. But those types of shoes are simply not a practical or even intelligent purchase for the majority of society.
Good luck! No matter what decision you make, be sure so you don’t second guess yourself.

Don’t buy the Jimmy Choos! You will definitely regret the purchase. They are four times your paycheck? Food and shelter are basic–not Jimmy Choos.
What’s a girl to do?
Stop drooling over the wildly expensive shoes.
Purchase a good quality knock-off.
Use the money wisely-maybe with a small reward for yourself for resisting temptation.
Eeeek! Remember they are non-refundable! What happens if a huge blister forms or if you simple cannot walk in those shoes?

Ask yourself if you love them. if you do, go for it.
Things like that, no matter how broke you might be after, will make you happy for a long long time. Every time you wear them.
However, if you don’t love them, don’t do it.

if you leave a link, we can try to find similar shoes for a cheaper pair.

Don’t buy the shoes but maybe buy a cheaper pair that are similar.
