I love these

I LOVE these shoes... they are even prettier in person. BUT, are they really worth $275? I mean.  I haven't had the best experience with BCBG shoes so I'm a little hesitant. I'm also worried that they are so distinctive that they may look dated next year. Thoughts?

They are beautiful but do you think you would get much wear from them??

I think that there is a little too much going on and you will tire of them next year.  Are they comfortable?  Would you wear them a lot?  Do you have enough extra money that you won't miss the $275 as more spring/summer things roll out?  If yes, then buy them.  If no-maybe try them on, find out your size, then scour online and eBay for deals in a month or two if you still want them.

They are cute, but they look insanely high and uncomfortable.  I would pass.

i've tried them on and i'll be honest, they're not the most comfortable, but i think they are soooo pretty.  since i get a discount (i work there) i will get them, but if i didn't work there, i wouldn't.  they're just too expensive for something so impractical.  over the last year bcbg shoes have gotten soo expensive!  i feel bad suggesting them to customers since they are sooo expensive.   i've only seen the tan, i like the blue sooo much more.

Yeah, I've tried them on and they're not that comfortable. But most of my shoes aren't, so I can get over it. I also have a problem paying $275 for BCBG shoes. Most of my clothes and a lot of my shoes in college were BCBG, back when it wasn't so expenisve. I guess the company is trying to be more fashion forward, hence jacking up the prices but keeping the quality the same. They are pretty though... I guess I'll just keep my eye out on ebay and scour DSW. Other people may be thinking the same thing I am and they might even go on sale.

there's two sales a year for bcbg.  everything goes 30-50-70.  the next one usually is around memorial day weekend.  i would make sure you know your size, then when they go on sale, i would buy them (and if your store doesn't have them, they can ship them to you at sale price-i'm amazed how many people just don't order things they love when the store doesn't have them!!!).  i know the quality has gone up quite a bit, but the prices still amaze me sometimes.

i'm glad someone else noticed this too. i feel like their prices just keep going up to extreme levels. anyway the shoes are gorgeous, but i would hold out. dsw is a good bet. also if you live near a dept. store they might have them, and mark them down sooner than the bcbg store.

those shoes are hot. i know the flower makes it a bit extra but i gasped when i saw them. the fact that they are not that comfy makes me pause. . . but oh they are just so cute. . . wait for the memorial day sale and get them.  i know i will be. :)
