Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not letting the criticism of her photo shoot look go unnoticed.
Talk of her too posh clothes has sparked a lot of talk in conservative circles lately.
During a segment on Fox and Friends on Saturday, the hosts joined in the slamming of the congressional candidate for wearing an expensive outfit during a photo shoot.
“And then there is this. The rising star of the Democratic Party has expensive tastes for a socialist,” guest host Katie Pavlich said.
She continued on: “For a photo shoot for Interview Magazine. Her pant suit — appropriate — retailing more than $2,800 alone. And the shoes $600 bucks.”
Pete Hegseth then chimed in, “It’s tough being a socialist. It really is.”
Pavlich, though, wasn’t done. “I mean I want a pair of $600 shoes. I think she should redistribute…hypocrisy at its best.”
The team at Fox and Friends was not the only ones bashing Ocasio-Cortez for the clothes she wore for the photo shoot.
On Friday, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk also called out the New York congressional candidate.
“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who pretends to be a champion of the people & believes the unemployment went down because were taking two jobs, just posed in a photoshoot with a $3,500 outfit, $625 shoes all while saying the rich have too much power and that socialism hasn’t been tried,” he wrote.

Responding to that tweet, Ocasio-Cortez suggested the alt-right just doesn’t know how photo shoots work.
She then added: “Get used to me slaying lewks because I am an excellent thrift shopper.”
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.
