Lust and Must

I have been LUSTING over these Cole Hann Alisa Oxfords for some time now, but at $178 I knew we were not meant to be. ;) Not to mention they are sold out in my size pretty much everywhere!! Okay, so you got me, I did try to rationalize getting these.

So, what's a girl to do?! Find a must item of course! I found these beautiful Dolce Vita shoes for $79. They are still a neutral color and have that pop of neon under. I think it's a good compromise. Done and done!

I love that I didn't splurge on these shoes. This is not a style shoe that I generally wear (but I have secretly always wanted to try a pair). Now if I don't wear them as much as I think I will, I won't feel as bad about buying them. See how my mind works?! lol
What do you think? Should I have got my lust item or do you love my must item?

I think you made the right choice. Especially since they aren't a style you normally wear. They're a lot of fun! Can't wait to see how you style them.

I am not an oxford fan but those Cole Han have made me change my mind!

I'm loving the lust pair, but yours are definitely equally adorable. Good choice!!

If I were in your shoes (ha! pun intended), I would have done the exact same thing. The pink ones look awesome and I can't wait to see how you style them! Great find!

I think I love the shoes you bought better than the original pair you liked. Can't wait to see how you style them! :)
