I recently read an article about Natalie Portman’s new shoe line. I happen to be a huge Natalie Portman fan. She has a great down to earth style. That said, I was really disappointed with the thinking behind her shoes.
Portman designs shoes for Te Casan. Her shoes are vegan. When I first read about these shoes, I immediately clicked on the link with one question in mind – how much does that cost? It turns out they are not as expensive as I thought. The average shoe is $300. Now I personally consider paying over $100 for a pair of shoes a splurge, but I was thinking in celebrity terms. However, that does not change the fact that $300 is more than someone with an average income can afford.
