It all started when Kylie showed off three pairs of designer shoes on Thursday and declared she "went shoe shopping today."

She wasn't shy about tagging the high-fashion designers in her post either.

Her Gucci sandals embellished with crystals run about $1,250.

Those Balenciaga heels are $995 each.

But it was when Kylie showed off her entire shoe collection that fans got really angry.

After her closet made the rounds, followers took to social media and slammed her for not being more responsible with her money.

Many pointed out she could be using her billions to assist in saving the Amazon, which has been burning for 20+ days, instead of wasting money on material things.
