men’s shoes

PORN!!

On Monday, I suffered a brief existential crisis. I was purse shopping (where do your crises happen?) and momentarily switched my allegiance from shoes to purses. Mostly because of this:

I actually offered to sell my soul for it, but no one showed up with a purse & a contract, so I am Prada-less. le sigh.

Yesterday, however, as I was continuing the purse shopping (to replace that which was stolen, and also because I can’t really buy new shoes right now due to Damian), I accidentally looked at shoes. And my allegiance is back.

Look at these! Drool!

That is a beautiful, beautiful boot. I know I can’t have it. When boot season rolls around, I’ll have a special fancy boot already (see below), plus no high heels for six months post surgery, plus my calves are ginormous & wouldn’t fit in those anyways, but still…maybe they’ll shave a bit off my calves while breaking my feet. It might be worth it.

Of course – I don’t want to leave out all my male readers with shoe fetishes, so Carolina John – this fall boot is for you!

PORN!

Thank you to everyone who voted, including my wonderful architect.

On Tuesday, I placed the order.

I ordered from Zappos (I stopped frequenting them as much when they took away the free overnight shipping, as Endless still offers that). I got the free shipping, because I am cheap & the shoes were not. I expected them to arrive in a week. Lo and behold! Just an hour after placing my order, I got an email from Zappos letting me know that I’d been upgraded to special fancy priority shipping and that I am truly a  goddess among shoe owners (or something like that). The shoes shipped out Tuesday. I received them yesterday. My heels are bleeding today. They are cute. And I think soon they will cause less bleeding – it takes awhile for patent leather to conform – and I ended up walking a LOT more today than I’d anticipated.

However, my office mate had bandaids (hello kitty, even) and now my heels are protected! It’s like a Halloween miracle.

And, because this is not NEW shoe porn, and I am a giver, I want to present you with some really nice fall boots that you should buy (and if you don’t need more boots [ha!] and have a lot of extra money, I wear a size six, and will send you my address).
