Shoe-la-la!

November 9, 2009

I have been satisfying a serious shoe craving lately.  When colder weather rolls in I crave boots.  Knee boots, mid-calf boots, ankle boots, and… any boot really.  I’ve bought three pairs recently to add to and fill out my collection.

The first pair I bought was a pair of knee high cognac colored riding boots.  My favorite thing about these boots is the braided detail down the side.  They are also super comfy and a perfect everyday boot.

Pair number two was a pair of black suede ankle boots.  These are super cute with their pleating detail on the upper.  They were also very wallet friendly since I found them at Payless.  Score one for team frugal!  Even though these shoes aren’t the highest quality, they are actually very comfy.

The third pair is my favorite pair.  They are a gorgeous pair of chestnut colored ankle boots with a studded detail and a pretty tall heel.  G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!  Unlike the previous pair, they were not as wallet friendly.  I couldn’t help it though.  Sometimes it is necessary to splurge!  And since I bought them with birthday money they weren’t really that bad. They are actually pretty comfy, despite the really tall heel.

Boots are definitely my go-to shoe for fall and winter.  Fancy and warm.  Double the awesome!  Hopefully, I can continue to find places to keep them all.

Deal of my life!

So this weekend Jason and I went out to dinner with my sister and Nicole. Well, he was very outnumbered. Naturally, when he began to discuss the surround sound system that he wants we all told him that it was ridiculous. However, I saw this situation as a fabulous opportunity. Why? Because I decided to make the deal of a lifetime! We agreed that he could get whatever sound system he wanted, as long as I could buy shoes that equal the amount he spends on it. BAHAHAHA!

I immediately went home and started to troll the internet for the perfect pair. I’m thinking something along the lines of these. I know that they’re quite ridiculous, but I don’t care. If for some reason this deal falls through, never fear! I found this!
