Shoeturday & My Retail Remorse

Unfortunately, on my recent trip to New York, I not only missed The Brothers Quay exhibit, but never got a chance to visit Top Shop. I’ve come to realize this is probably a good thing for my wallet, as I probably would have come home even less financially stable as usual, but would have gained an arsenal of new shoes. Nixon might die just a tiny bit when she sees the first pair I’ve got posted here, considering her boot lust for The New Fur.

Punk Corset Sandal † Simple Shoe Boot

Paradox Sandal † Jinx Zip Up Ankle Cuff

I have a strange feeling that, in a parallel universe, I might be a foot fetishist.

Button Up Bootie

A much younger version of myself once went up to my mother and said, “I want witch shoes”.

“Well, Samantha, Halloween is a few months off.”

“No, Mom, I want witch shoes to wear every day.”

And so it began. Before I could even reach the drug store shelf that had the black hair dye on it, I wanted pointy toed, button up Victorian style boots. I also would have graciously accepted a pointy hat, but thankfully, Mom knew better than I did.

Splendor † Ghillie Boot*

Bliss Boots † Stark Boot

*Don’t judge those by the photo. I have a pair, and they are actually super cute on.
