The Unattainable Shoe

I am an only child, which means that I am used to getting what I want. Since college, I have been what I consider an "impulsive buyer". If I see something I want and I know I have the money for it, I'll get it. Clothes, shoes, purses, makeup... whatever I think I need. I have enough shoes and purses for a small neighborhood but I always feel like I'm missing something. This week, I feel like I am missing a tan high heel, preferably in a slingback. Then I came across this:

It's so pretty! It's actually on sale for $40, which is amazing and affordable. Unfortunately, my husband recently lost his job and the extra money that I use to buy random things like this now has to go towards bills and helping out. It's very hard for me to not instantly buy things like this but I'm really trying to be the responsible and selfless wife.

So for now, I have to say farewell to the shoes. If I can find them on Ebay, I might ask for them for Christmas. Economy, you've won again!
