I does complain about the cost of costumes. But I would not complain about those sneakers because they are OOOOOOGLY. I find Kimora Lee weare nice clothes but her clothing is gaudy.

So we're in agreement, then?

The same could be say for J-Lo, no? Her stylist does dress she nice (most of the time), but never would you see anything remotely close to that in stores. But then again, if either J-Lo or Kimora were to market that type of fashion in department stores, could the average middle-class (where applicable)customer afford it?

Is like yuh asking to get rob...but then again, would the avg person think the jewels were real, if dey was to pass yuh on the street? Perhaps not. Now to the average crackhead/t'ief/idle-minded imps, chances are it would not matter. Dey might t'ief them either which way

You do have a point. Assuming the average middle class customer has children, I am going to say, no they cannot afford it.
