Should I spend the money or just get cheap ones?
So I have been gathering the pieces of Sabrina's Halloween costume and I need black boots. Part of me is thinking of just getting cheapy boots that aren't even a size "wide" and just getting a bigger size since she will only wear them for this occasion and maybe a few other times.
The other part of me is thinking of getting her good Stride Rite boots in her correct size so she can wear them whenever she wants.
WWYD?

Re: Should I spend the money or just get cheap ones?
I have the same issue.... I need black shoes for DD's costume too. I think I am just going to go to Payless or Target and get a cheap pair of black mary jane type shoes. Right now, she is growing so fast, that I don't think it is worth it to buy a pair of shoes that she will wear once or twice before growing out of it.
If you think you'll actually get use out of the boots thats a different story, but for one or two wearings, I'm all for the cheap ones!
BTW, Payless carries wide widths for little girls!

I don't know I too am having the same issue. I need/want saddle shoes for her 50's girl costume. I will have to swing by Payless and then make my decision.

I would get the cheap ones unless you plan to dress her in black boots a lot.
FYI for those looking, Kmart carries wide and I actually just got a pair of black mary janes there (they have several styles) for $6.99. I too needed saddle shoes, but these will suffice.

all depends on if she will wear them with outfits or just one time.

You know what's funny, Jules, I can totally see Sabrina in boots!
I think they might be cute for the winter, if you think she'll wear them, go for the good ones
I know I owe you an email

See, I want to get her boots, but I wasn't thinking of black. I thought she would look cute in brown ones. But the costume calls for black.
Oh yeah, can't wait for your Halloween luncheon.
