Her shoes are really cute and they look like nice quality, don't think prices are far out of line for good shoes these days. Look at what some Clarks cost. Earth shoes, etc. I have one of her sweaters, the olive green one with the dog on it that she wore on her show this winter. I got a good deal on it but the original price was high.

 

I have no idea what she donates to charity, I'm sure she does what she does privately. 

 

I read an article this week about her home being on the market, 40 million plus. That's what she does, buys homes..makes changes to them...moves. Quite a bit. The home is magnificent. She's a fabulously successful woman and I applaud her. She did lose her career at one point because of her orientation, but she worked hard and hung in there and now she is where she is.

I must say her low top sneakers are nice. They remind me of the basketball style Keds sneakers I used to wear but Ellens look even better made. (However Im not paying that for myself). 

 

But thinking back to when my kids were teens, we did buy them the good sneakers that would come out with sports peoples names such as the Jordans, etc. And back then we paid 120 or more for our those type of sports sneakers for our kids. 

 

I also like Ellens little slip ons with the words LOVE but again, just too much for my budget.

 

Well the bottom line is, Love Ellen and love those 2 pair, but cant pay those prices soo if anyone gets them enjoy!

@Greeneyedlady21  i meant, is this line used as a fundraiser? sometimes that can sway me.

@ms traditional Ok I see, I misunderstood. Not that I know of.

 

Anyone interested, you can find better prices on her shoes if you search online. I saw a really cute pair of Ellen sandals this week that I wanted to order but they only came in medium widths on the site I found. I almost always need wide. QVC has some in wide widths.

I just watched a little of the ED shoes show last night but they did not look comfortable to me and a little masculine for me.  Not so much the tennis shoes but the other shoes.
