Good Stuff From Cheesy Stores: Simply Vera Pumps Look More Expensive On My Feet Than On Kohls.com

Vera Wang’s Kohls line has been turning out some really stylish shoes, and these distressed leather t-strap pumps are the best of the bunch this season.

(In an attempt to demonstrate that the shoes are much less cheesy in reality – and an astoundingly good buy at $30 – I’ve juxtaposed my iPhone photo with the official Kohls.com picture.)

While these pumps are nothing special in black, the taupe version, with a vintage-y look weathered and very slight sheen, can easily rival a shoe five times the price. The platform and chunky heel make them easy to walk in, and they look fantastic against opaque black tights.

We’re just sad the photographers at Kohls didn’t do them their proper justice.
