These Boots are Made for Walking, Yadda Yadda

Sorry about the lame title. I couldn't help myself!

School's pretty hectic right now, as midterms are starting up next week, so I'm not sure how my posting schedule is going to be until the weekend. I'm going to make it my goal to post at least once every night, so we'll see how that goes.

This is going to be short, but sweet. I just wanted to share my love for these absolutely fabulous Bandi boots from Chie Mihara.



I saw them at Bloomies (on Michigan Ave.) a few weeks ago and I just about died. They look like they're tailor made for me! They come in black (but also a fun teal color which seems to be cropping up a lot in my wardrobe lately), the heel isn't prohibitively high, and the design is this absolutely fabulous tongue-in-cheek vintage style, which references those boots so popular around the turn of the century whose buttons needed to be done up with a special hook.



Just like my Samantha doll wore, but a bit hipper and more grown-up. Not to mention user-friendly.

Of course, I very sadly set them back down again when I saw the price on the sole...they were over $400. But as my mom wisely said, "Just wait and they'll go on sale eventually." Well, a girl can hope, right? In fact they're on sale at the Chie Mihara online store, but the price is not much better at 287 euros.
So, all I can do is wait...and hope.
