We see you girl. Looking like a winter dream on Fulton Street. Looking fly in your wool coat, gorgeous scarf, leggings and super cute ankle boots. Your hair is on point, your sunglasses are groovy and you look EXPENSIVE. (And we mean that in a good way.) You’ve got Brooklyn style and flair. You walk past, and wait, what IS THAT? Is there something stuck to your shoe? It’s white. It’s on both shoes. Oh no girl. No, no, no. You did not leave the clearance rack sticker on the soles of your shoes. Why? Why did you go to all that trouble to put together that beautiful ensemble just to broadcast that you got it all 75% off at a discount store?
We know you don’t have to spend a lot of money to look amazing. We really don’t care how much you make or the designer brand of any of the pieces you wear. But if you purchase your shoes at the likes of Marshalls, TJ Maxx, DSW or Nordstrom Rack, do yourself a favor, pay attention to the details. And if you think we can’t see the sticker because it’s on the bottom of your shoe, think again. Every step you take, we’ll be sussing you.
