Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the self-professed “Democratic socialist” running to represent New York’s 14th District in Congress, sported an outfit worth $3,500 in a posh photo shoot and interview with actress Kerry Washington.

The 28-year-old congressional candidate modeled Gabriela Hearst’s double-breasted blazer with a $1,900 price, $890 wool pants, and $625 Manolo Blahnik pumps in the photo shoot paired with her Interview magazine interview with Washington.

The ensemble came to a grand total of $3,505, and many have criticized Ocasio-Cortez—who posed with construction workers in the photo shoot—for her expensive clothing taste, as she bills herself a champion of the working class.

“And then there is this. The rising star of the Democratic Party has expensive tastes for a socialist,” Fox News guest host Katie Pavlich told viewers on Fox & Friends Saturday.

“I mean I want a pair of $600 shoes. I think she should redistribute…hypocrisy at its best,” Pavlich added.

a) The alt-right doesn’t seem to understand the concept of magazine shoots

b) You don’t get to keep the clothes, duh

c) I don’t “pretend” to fight for a Living Wage & Medicare for All. I do it.
