Jolly Shoes!

Meet Jolly:

I got suckered enticed baited? into one of those shoe club websites again. I was hesitant at first because of my Shoedazzle experience, however, seeing as how this one was backed by Steve Madden and Rachel Bilson, ShoeMint felt more credible. So when the Jolly Bootie came around I was all in. Especially since I had been eying this style for a while but had yet to find one I liked. I proudly showed them to the Boyfriend who immediately shot me down. I think his exact words were "Those are some ugly shoes!"

Needless to say, I was heartbroken. Not that it would prevent me from buying them, but still...ouch.

All my efforts to  convince him otherwise were futile. Take for example this email conversation:

I didn’t notice her pants because I was distracted by the not so good looking shoes ;)
