cute!

I am looking at boots right now, and want some kind of buckle detail like that.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Friday, 10 November 2006 19:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Better than cute, they are supa tough.

Laurel (Laurel), Friday, 10 November 2006 19:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I was about to make a Twin Peaks joke, but then I discovered I'd already made it on this thread. TWICE.

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 10 November 2006 19:48 (seventeen years ago) link

I really want the boots Madchen posted upthread:

and they're already fucked. vegan schmegan.

those are tough boots, laurels! brown suede boots above not so tough, but cute for sure. i like the buttons up the side a lot. i want tall lace-up boots even though they are a pain.

i am all into heels lately - i like the ones you posted, horseshoe! i've been coveting the ysl big weird heeled ones and knock-offs of (though not in gold). but yeah, winter in this city as a pedestrian/public-transit user = no heels. ah well.

xpost
nice!

rrrobyn, the situation (rrrobyn), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:03 (seventeen years ago) link

cons are also vegan though

rrrobyn, the situation (rrrobyn), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:04 (seventeen years ago) link

and a lot of other shoes like that. regardless, they tend not to last long with constant wear anyway.

rrrobyn, the situation (rrrobyn), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Why doesn't anyone want to buy those YSL heels in gold? Gold is more everyday-wearable than you think! I am a gold-clothing evangelist.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:08 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, i know - i need to unlearn some things maybe. i should give gold more of a chance. i'm more of a silver/platinum girl really. but you're right, gold is really nice and can be classic if the right tone. i do have this shiny gold shawl i found somewhere and i like it.

rrrobyn, the situation (rrrobyn), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:16 (seventeen years ago) link

to be totally presumptuous for a moment, many white women I have known think that they can't "pull off" gold, but I usually think they're wrong. not that it's any of my business, but for what it's worth.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:20 (seventeen years ago) link

Hm, I never thought of that. I usually avoid gold (tho not in shoes, I have 3 pair) because it was so country club "classic" jewelry in the '80s.

Laurel (Laurel), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

okay, that might be another source of people's hesitation. I didn't realize that. but there's lots of pretty, non-country-club-y gold jewelry! (jewelry is the arena in which I am most fervently pro-gold)

horseshoe (horseshoe), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:27 (seventeen years ago) link

but anyway. gold shoes are fantastic.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:28 (seventeen years ago) link

i am pretty white, it's true

rrrobyn, the situation (rrrobyn), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:38 (seventeen years ago) link

which i guess is part of what i mean by gold having to be the right "tone" to me. gold to me is often too close to beige and that just washes me out. i would wear gold shoes with something pink though.

rrrobyn, the situation (rrrobyn), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:40 (seventeen years ago) link

well, none of this beige-y gold! that defeats the point of gold!

horseshoe (horseshoe), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:50 (seventeen years ago) link

I have just bought a pair of shoes from www.cydwoq.com people. They are the nicest shoes I have ever bought. Also the most expensive.

accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Friday, 10 November 2006 22:10 (seventeen years ago) link

Laurel, man, I want your address so I can STEAL'em.

hey boy shoes

a friend of mine was wearing a wide gold pleated belt - more like a thin cumberbund really - tonight with a black t-shirt and dark blue pants. it worked and looked good. she's got innate style though; she can pull off a lot of stuff. i would wear such gold accessories, i decided. esp with matching shoes and handbag.

rrrobyn, the situation (rrrobyn), Saturday, 11 November 2006 04:24 (seventeen years ago) link

yay! (yeah, I think accessories and shoes are probably wear it's at with gold. not that, like, a gold dress couldn't be cute, but it would be a lot to pull off.)

horseshoe (horseshoe), Saturday, 11 November 2006 04:27 (seventeen years ago) link

uh, "where" it's at, obviously.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Saturday, 11 November 2006 04:27 (seventeen years ago) link

sleep don't go for the infared am 90s, everyone has those. get another color scheme, maybe design yr own on the nikeid.

am90s are my favoritest sneakers ever tho - i made these ones on the internet:

fun!

jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Friday, 17 November 2006 02:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm going to buy some new DMs. I want to put flourescent (sp I know for sure! As firefox underlines my spelling now!) laces in them. It's something I regret not doing back in the day.

jel -- (jel), Friday, 17 November 2006 17:58 (seventeen years ago) link

ooh ooh, tell me where i can get some,

i really like them

not-goodwin (not-goodwin), Sunday, 19 November 2006 00:10 (seventeen years ago) link

one month passes...
apparently I have pumps in every shade except black. so, any recommendations for serviceable but still cute black pumps? I think I should avoid straps, Mary Jane, T-, or otherwise.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:47 (seventeen years ago) link

argh. whenever I start looking for a pair, I get distracted by the things I'm trying to avoid:
http://www.zappos.com/images/110/110860/1396-354668-d.jpg

so cute! but peep-toe isn't particularly "serviceable" in winter.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:53 (seventeen years ago) link

would one look like an Easter egg in these?

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 17:59 (seventeen years ago) link

those are really really not black shoes at all

rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:08 (seventeen years ago) link

they're kinda great though

rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:08 (seventeen years ago) link

I know; I have a problem!

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:09 (seventeen years ago) link

Depends on what you consider "serviceable"! I like this one, at macys.com:

Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Fuck, not only is that huge, but it's also invisible. Anyway, the link is here.

Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:18 (seventeen years ago) link

that's really pretty, Laurel. thanks!

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:20 (seventeen years ago) link

Or this one: Calvin Klein, nice mid-heel, quite pointy, here

Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:21 (seventeen years ago) link

pointy would be good with jeans. trying to be as practical as possible.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm actually really into these for their stodginess, but I think the white plays that up better than the black...still, you know never, you might love them!

I have a gift card for Macy's, can you tell?

Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

oh, the Arturo Chiang ones are beautiful! those are my favorites so far. but of course, I want the brown ones most. you'd think 3080 chocolate-brown pairs of shoes would be enough.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Really? I never know what to do with brown, instead of brown shoes I try to wear red or gold or some color that coordinates. I feel like my experiments in brown are all either the wrong shade for certain clothing items or they're too matchy matchy when they're the right shade, so I have officially given up.

Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 19:09 (seventeen years ago) link

gold is also a recent weakness of mine, but yeah. love the brown. I do think it sometimes makes me look a little matchy matchy.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 19:10 (seventeen years ago) link

I vote for the Calvin Kleins but only because I have a pair identical to them (that I haven't worn yet because I am a wuss and have been entrenched in knee-high boots as soon as the temperature hit below 55)

AllyzayEisenschefterBDawkinsFlyingSquirrelRomoCrying.jpg (allyzay), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 16:38 (seventeen years ago) link

I still haven't gotten any knee-high boots this season. soon it will be pointless. :(

Ms Misery (MissMiseryTX), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 16:39 (seventeen years ago) link

No, I returned my tall boots and haven't replaced them yet, either. Of course, today might be the first day I would have worn them.

Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 16:42 (seventeen years ago) link

tall boots are all-weather for me.
