Anthropologie is suing Forever 21 charging blatant rip-offism, charging lower pricesism and general brand quality degradationism.

So instead I present my completely made-up reimagining…
I succumbed to the allure of the Triglav Peep-Toes ($110) over the weekend. Something about the cafe-striped wedge heels was too tempting. And they are really comfortable to boot!
