Slob shoes

I hate wearing sneakers outside the gym. I will begrudgingly wear them if I have a lot of errands to run after working out and not enough time to go home and change but I cringe inside all day. I am a product of my grandmother, a 96 year old woman who grew up in 1920's Shanghai and who believes that a lady should always look nice no matter where she is. That's not to say I have not rolled out of bed and driven my 4 year old son to school while wearing my Hello Kitty pajamas (and if we're late I have to walk him inside while suffering the humiliation of my son shouting "mama you're supposed to change before you leave the house. Why are you wearing kitty pjs and your monkey slippers?) but these hideous excuses for shoes below really stopped me in my tracks. I'd have to say I'd rather go barefoot and risk tetanus.
1. Lanvin Satin sneakers at Net a Porter--

Sneakers in pink silk with gray ribbon laces. Yeah, very useful huh.

Actually not bad if you are 15 but other than the Gossip girls, what teenager has $550 to shell out for shoes?

2. Givenchy Lace-front sandals- I've seen similar slippers in Chinatown for $5 so there is no need to spend this kind of money.
They cost $490!?!? How stupid (or insane) do they think we are? At Net a Porter
