I make pretty darn good money for a college student, and I'm lucky enough to have my parents help (read: pay) with the bills so I can spend my money on almost whatever I want and I have one major credit card with a high limit.
Clothes I don't really care about. Most of my closet is Banana, Lerner, J. Crew, and Limited for work, and everything from bebe, Guess, and Express to Old Navy and Target (gotta love mossimo) for regular clothes. I still can't justify $200 for a t-shirt!!
Now shoes are a totally different story!!!!! I blame Sex and the City for my recently discovered shoe fetish. My first pair of Manolo Blahnik pumps was like a religious experience!! While visiting a cousin in DC, we took a shopping trip to NYC, and I have been worshipping Blahnik and Jimmy Choo every since. My accessories probably account for at least 75% of the cost of my wardrobe. Now, don't get me wrong--I don't walk around in $500 pairs of shoes all the time. Those are my "grown-up"/"I'm feeling sexy today" shoes. On campus you can find me in Nikes, Timberlands, or flip-flops--although I have broke down and worn my Blahnik "timbs" a couple of times to class......
