Those quotes make her sound really stupid. Is she? I’m not familiar at all
Ex-stripper, so yes.
How do you whore yourself out for a living? Let us know so we can objectivify your dumbass.
Okay fuck you
If your shoes cost $3000 and walking ruins them, maybe that’s on you.
There’s a certain type of wealthy-person stuff that proves its value by being incredibly impractical or fragile. “Not only did I spend way too much for this, I already know that it’ll probably fall apart soon, and I’ll have to buy another.” Being able to bring up again how expensive it was and how pissed off you are that it fell apart is just another good opportunity to let everyone in the vicinity know that you buy absurd rich-girl stuff. That’s actually better than still having the stupid spiky shoes.
Martini glasses:
Art deco French cocktail ware from the 1920s designed to be dumb but bold and it’s ease of breaking showed a wealth during a terrible time.
Wealthy people love to break their stuff almost on purpose to make sure it stays special and then regular people buy into it
For a while, I used to sometimes pack up wealthy people’s stuff as part of my job. At one point I was packing up wineglasses that were, no joke, about a foot and a half (0.5m) tall made of thin crystal. When the job was done, the guy gave the workers checks for $500, as a tip.
There’s tons of conspicuous consumption that goes on just to prove how much money that consumer has. But there’s also those rich people who do the “buy it once” thing. They’ll spend a mint on a durable, handmade pair of shoes that last 20 years, and then they’ll get them re-soled for less than a new pair would cost.
Those are just reasonable people and I have never met one that has been rich that way through frugality alone and anywhere near the level of wealth of those that aim to show it off even if the frugal person’s bank account is far more in the green than the consumerist.
been rich that way through frugality alone
No of course not: the rich get rich because they acquire lots of money (usually via inheritance, but whatevs). I didn’t claim frugality can make a person rich, just that some rich people are frugal, in contrast with the conspicuous consumers we most often hear about, nor am I advocating it as a financial strategy. Being rich makes a person an asshole, but it doesn’t necessarily make them the kind of person who’ll buy $3,000 shoes that don’t work.
They make swimsuits that are dry clean only, so shoes you can’t actually walk in doesn’t surprise me.
Shit like that being dry clean only is just a designer being lazy. If you ruin it washing it that’s on you type of bs. If you take it to a dry cleaner they will wash it in a washing machine.
I don’t think a really good designer brand is doing that.
I think the point here is that you’re going to be wearing it in the water even though it’s “dry clean only.”
Holy shit this woman can’t even eat with her mouth closed.
What kind of shoddy shoes get ruined if you walk around a stadium with them?
Really expensive ones I guess
oh nooo you had to walk in your shoes
The heroes we deserve?
