Oooh I like those, Kalhoun. I just got two pair of these, in brown and in black. Nothing fancy, just general heels to get me through a few years. I luurrrrve them. I am pining for a new pair of boots but I can’t justify it right now.
I like those! When I worked in an office, I always got classic styles because it’s too damned expensive to buy shoes that change with fashions. Gimme a classic any day! Except I’d have to go with a higher heel. I just would.
I’d love a higher heel but my campus is so huge I have to watch what I wear. Even the Aerosoles started to kill me last week, but I was also walking around far more than is normal. I’ve got some 4" black patent dragonlady shoes at home though, for those days when I want to look super mean. Oh! I got some cute ballet flats last week (on sale for $10!). No picture though, I just grabbed 'em from a boutique by school. They’re black with little sparkly stars on them.
I know what you mean. I got used to it because I wore high heels every day, but I’d occasionally see a woman limping through the atrium, and I’d think to myself, “newbie.” It’s a killer if you have a lot of walking to do.
It’s not a very good one, but you get the idea. They are actually a bit big for me (size 6; I usually wear 5 1/2) but I liked them so much, and they were being sold at a charity shop so they were uber cheap.
I can’t find a picture online at all, but I bought some really nice ankle boots in this wine colour that’s so dark. I usually buy black (force of habit, goes with anything and I’m not much of a clothes horse) but they had only the wine left in my size.
I love them.
Especially since I needed a new pair as my other pair is almost 10 years old and should probably be retired.
Oooh, shoes! Those are some kickin’ boots, Kalhoun.
Since I’m going to Europe on Tuesday, and need new walking shoes to wear in Europe, I bought these, which are really comfortable and look smashing with flare-leg jeans. Did I mention I’m going to Europe?
[sub]Forgive me. I’m very excited. I haven’t been overseas in over 20 years and have never been to the countries I’m going to. It’s made me quite tiresome: “I’ll have a side salad and a large Diet Coke and did I mention I’m going to Europe next week?”[/sub]
I bought these last Friday to wear out Saturday night. Wearing them right now. I like them. Just a nice basic black heel. (Because, apparently, I don’t have enough of those! :P) But it’s boot season and I couldn’t resist ordering these. I think they’ll look pretty hot with a nice pair of jeans.
I just got these boots and this jacket to ride in the boyfriend’s sidecar. (I spent a lot less than that, though!) They are so awesome and they make me feel like a superhero. A post-apocalyptic superhero. Possibly of steampunk origins.
