[quote=Anonymous]I’m willing to buy some things. I also try to give them advice on mixing and matching stuff. I’ll be really honest - I don’t buy cheap shoes, so the shoes you listed wouldn’t phase me. My kids know most of what I buy will be on sale. As an example, the classic Doc Martens are $100 and their Chelsea boots are $96. That’s pretty much how much decent shoes cost in 2023. So I’d buy the Dunks and the Chelsea boots, and she’d have to fill in any gaps (or whatever). A big BUT here - my kids are not hard on shoes and wear them at least 6 months. They are still wearing the sneakers I bought in August. I agree that she needs to start to understand what she REALLY needs. Is it the shoes? The purse? A really cool jacket? She also needs to understand expensive jeans (or whatever) means one pair instead of 3 or 4. My middle schooler got a Nike Tech suit for his birthday. So he gets one outfit instead of 4.[/quote]
