Happy Leap Day - Today leap into cutes shoes!
A subtle, fun Feminine Differential.
We have not played "The Price is Right" in a few months -The pricing of women's fashions is so arbitrary it makes me wonder if the prices are not set by some dart-board approach of what the market will bear. “Charge what the market will bear.” Think about that answer for a second. What does it mean? Are we not the market?
With Chinese manufactures selling direct now, we are getting a feeling for the wholesale price. I have worked at two fashion retail stores and see the exact same import packaging at both. I am willing to venture that nearly 100% of our fashion products are being manufactured in China.
So as much as I have prided myself on buying USA in the past, it is an almost impossible ask now.
Here is today's "The Price Is Right / Wrong" sampling. Can you spot the one that cost $1,150?
Macys - Women's Triple Up Canvas Platform Casual Sneakers from Finish Line $70.00
TEMU - Women's Solid Color Chunky Sneakers, Comfortable Soft Soled Running Shoes, Versatile Low Top Sport Shoes $18.98
Saks Fifth Av. Valentino Garavani One Stud XL Trainer Sneakers In Nappa Leather $1,150
Sam Edelman - PIPPY LACE UP PLATFORM SNEAKER $120.00

There is one more I forgot to include above: Amazon's White Platform Sneakers Low Top Platform Shoes Lace Up Canvas Shoes for Women $22.00. These I do own and love the fit and style. A wear to work shoe.
