shiny pants and leather lace ups

aa disco1

AA navy disco pants, F21 striped top, random ring, BC footwear flats

by far the coolest pants i own. and, disregarding the first pic where for some reason i look preggers, they totally slim you down. albeit totally difficult to get into, once i finally wiggled my way in i felt like catwoman, or whatsherface from grease lightening. can't wait to wear them out with some pumps and a flowy crop top.

on another note, i am completely distressed over my new boots, the pour la victoire ann d knockoffs. i had been mostly concerned about the color (i wanted a deep chocolate-y brown, none of that wimpy tan crap), and the color was spot on.. they just... kind of hurt, and the leather isn't as soft as i had imagined them to be. so now, i don't know, i can keep them, get some dr.scholl's and wear the leather in, or bite the bullet on return shipping costs and get multiple other shoes with that money. usually i'm pretty good with myself at making sure big purchases (oh yes, this one was big, even with the shopbop discount) are completely perfect and worth it, but i've just wanted these so badly for so long, ugh.
and they are so gorgeous, aren't they??

  6. I love your pants and you look great in them. I think any time you spend a lot of money on something you have to love it and know that you will wear it a lot. If you aren't in love with them then I would send them back. Maybe save up for some designer shoes that are really nice?

  9. The boots do look gorgeous and I know all about the pains of wearing shoes that hurt. I wouldn't know what to do in your situation. They are really nice and I would be tempted to keep them. But at the same time, you might not get a lot of wear out of them because they will hurt your feet. I hope you're able to figure out something that works for you.

  12. Ok, do this. Soak a cotton ball with alcohol. Squeeze excess out. Rub the inside of the boots with alcohol, then suck it in and wear them all day. They will be like butter.
    Good luck and thanks for stopping by!

  20. OMG chica those lace-ups are GORGEOUS!! I've been looking for one just like that (but with higher heels). You should definitely keep em, maybe you can get them "loosen" out.

    Let me know what you decide on!
