Despite their sheer ridiculousness and ubiquitous presence on French bloggers, I was inexplicably drawn to these boots. My boyfriend got them for me for my birthday but they had to be sent back and exchanged for a different size, so I only just had my grubby little hands on them on Monday.
I never want to be parted from them. They make such a weird noise when I walk (I made a video to illustrate this fact, but I walk, apparently, very fast and it ended up pointless) and fill me with inane happiness. The fringe on one of them came a little crimped, but I don't really mind. It's kind of like a cowlick on my boots! On the other hand, I've had an awful lot of stare-downs on campus. This is only compounded by the fact that I am, for once, alone on campus! John (boyfriend, he has a name!) is in graduate school now and only has night classes, and everyone else I knew already graduated or is doing the same as he! So I am all by me onesies, traipsing across campus. Ah well, my inner (and outer) not-so-lonely-only child doesn't mind too much, most of the time.
They are adorable, and they look very comfy. I like the outfit you paired it with :)
ReplyDeleteThose seem so unexpected on you, but they look fantastic! Great outfit.
ReplyDeleteI think they look great! And the cowlick made me smile :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with the clothes horse. Who would have thought, yet you rock them so effortlessly. I am deeply deeply envious. I've been wanting moccasin booties for 2 summers, but Minnetonka just doesn't ship to finland and i haven't won any on ebay. But seeing you wear these makes me more determined. You look lovely. Belated Happy Birthday and New School Year!
ReplyDeleteI like the boots. I would never think of them for myself, but they really make the outfit. Nice bag, too.
ReplyDeletealthough I'm not typically a fan of these boots, you wear them well!
ReplyDeleteI agree - the outfit looks effortless!
ReplyDeleteI Love those boots!!
ReplyDeletelovely fringes. the combo with the white dress makes it look so cute.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely -- I just got the ankle version, and have not stopped wearing them!
ReplyDeletegod, those are amazing!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely amazing.
and don´t get me started on how you combined them with that simple dress..
you´re going straight to my inspiration folder, if you don´t mind.(yes, I´m that girly)
"Their sheer ridiculousness and ubiquitous presence on French bloggers, I was inexplicably drawn to these boots."
ReplyDeletePossibly the best (most interesting) sentence I've come across in a long time.
"*Despite"
ReplyDeleteI just bought a pair of similar Minnetonka boots. I know what noise you're talking about!
ReplyDeleteI get a lot of comments, but I am too in love to care.
I love this dress and the lace peeking out the bottom!
