Not your mother's flats...

...so why are they $118?? I'm all about great shoes... but flipping through the new J.Crew catalogue- even I was taken aback. Beneath a tutu-clad little girl, lie scattered pairs of multicolored ballet flats and the phrase; "one pair is never enough." Spending big bucks on flats that will be worn through dirty playgrounds and grassy parks seems a bit ridiculous, no? (Spending $118 each, on multiple pairs!?) Little girls deserve to look fabulous of course, but unless J.Crew has developed a magical stain-resistant, water-repelling satin it seems absurd to me. Question: Would you spend this much for mini-flats?

P.S. I sound like my mom.
