Love or Lust
By the time I saw them, late last winter I'd already purchase the wedged Marc Jacobs with the fur trim (on sale, thank you very much) the ridiculously wonderful, techicolor Pucci moonboots, the somewhat practical, yet not really, pink shearling Gucci's (I feel guilty just writing this - I got 'em at a price so unbelieveable that I still shake a little when I think about it) and at least one other pair of expensive, label-whore-y boots that I can't seem to remember right now. Even I couldn't really justify buying them - in spite of their perfectly shaped heel, cap toe and subtely metallic hue. For some ultra-bizzare reason, I envisioned myself wearing the silver version with a denim skirt and thick-cableknit tights - which makes no sense at all since I wear all black everyday all day but whatever. These boots have become my Moby Dick...they'd been marked down to $125 by the time I decided not to buy them - they were sold out by the next day....they've haunted me ever since. So I got them - on my sister's b-day, the last pair in my size, at a price that makes me think that Zappos must be insane - finally they're mine!!! Okay, so they're bronze, not silver - but its a perfect bronze that matches the stiching on my J Brands - so its cool.
I think I might sell them on eBay.
