I’m crushin’…

Fashion
Jan 30, 200971 Comments

I can barely catch my breath to make this post you guys!
That is how beautiful these boots are!
Oh my I think I'm in L-O-V-E
99035_1

99035_2

from Browns Fashion
These are so totally genius on so many levels.
Such a clean tall shape with that  slight arch and gently rounded toe…and just the right amount of skin showing-but  the foot is never totally exposed!! The seam running up the front of the shoe gives it such a nice lean lineality-and that zip up the back -it's just perfection!!
Honestly I haven't felt this way about a pair of shoes in such a long time…I am dreamin' of the day they make it to my doorstep.
xxx my heart belongs to you, Margiela.

    You are so adorable, it makes me speechless. You know you are talking about a pair of shoes right? haha, maybe I’m underestimating your love for these particular martin margielas….but…..when I think about a shoe’s composition, I think sole, heel, material. It’s a practically heartless, inadament object. Of course that is not to say one cannot have “feelings” for a shoe especially one that can evoke such feelings. Maybe that is the reason I’m not giving enough credit–for the reasons of
    …shoe sentiments…shoe sentiments.
    Still..your passion is inspiration! keep on bloggin!

    Those boots are the equivalent of over 1000 American dollars. Shit, girl.
    That being said, they are amazing. And if I had your kind of dough, I would probably buy them too. Actually probably not… I would feel guilty and return them. But anyway, I like your blog.
