I Need an Intervention

This love for Boots has apparently exploded. I'd like to say I "can't" help it, but its more like I "don't want to" help it. Boots are cute, in style, very fall-ish. I am convinced I can wear them in summer-although truth be told its so hot here, you wear flip-flops, but at least I have the OPTION to wear them right? And come on, they will be in style next season, and the one after that, the one after that, and well now you get the point.

So, the "newest" additions are three beautiful pairs, if I do say so my self. I was out shopping for my Niece & Nephew and came across these tope Vera Wang boots, they remind me of motorcycle riding boots. They're edgy and flashy they have a bit of glam to them with a rhinestone like belt across the bottom. (Fear not- my fellow readers, I will post a picture of the line up)

Anyhow, while at the mall waiting for my Niece & Nephews stockings to get embroidered. They tell you to come back in thirty minuets, well what else do you do at the mall or thirty minuets??? You shop. I was on the hunt (yes-it really is a "hunt") for purple suede boots, but I can't ever seem to find them.

I did find a pair of purple flats, tried them on and too tight and of course they did not have the next size. I stumbled into Charlote Russe because Kendra always is sending me links to their boots-and she is like a hawk when it comes to that stuff. Ever have that friend? You mention to them something you're looking for and BAM they'll find it, or remember you mentioned it. <3 Her. Anyways, so I went in to look at the boots hoping they had purple, they did not. But it was Buy-One-Get-One-Half-Off. It doesn't hurt to look right? Well-except when looking turns into buying because, lets be honest, when does it not? Here's a bit of a back-story-I fell in love with these black, suede, over the knee, fold over boots, which you could convert to fold over and they tie off to the side, or wear the "flaps" over the knee. Kohl's had them, I found them in a 9.5 but I needed a 10, ugh, don't you hate that? I do! I had them look all over the US for them, called stores in other states my friends lived in, got Kendra the "hound/hawk" on it too. Nada. I was crushed. Well don't you know low-and-behold Charlotte Russe has the SAME boots, what? I was shocked, I did a triple-take. The heel was even the same size, which is nice, they're wear-able. AND they had the size I needed, I went with an 11 just to be on the safe side, SO excited that I found them, again. Although they're a little tight on the calf part, so I think they're legging/skirt only boots. Since it was BOGO I found these cute navy blue suede boots, the tops fold down and have a leather like texture to them. So cute & half off, I refused, to refuse. Although I did admit for the "intervention" right there at the register and I posted to Kendra on facebook "I need an intervention, as I am writing you I am in line at Charlotte Russe buying boots" Of course her prompt response was "I am a size 6" which is exactly the friends I need. Tell me not to buy boots, you will be removed from my circle of friends :) So, now lets review all of the boots I have. I like to call them "The Boots of Fall" Black Flat Suede Slouch-Payless Grey Flat Suede Slouch-Payless Black (low) Ankle Boots-Madden Girl Black Ankle Boots-Payless Brown Leather-ish Slouch-Kmart Black Suede Over-The-Knee-Sears Tope Calf "Riding"-Kohls Black 3-Way Suede-Charlotte RusseBlue Suede-Charlotte Russe Those are just the "additions" this season. I have a few in my closet too :)
