Hmmm! Well, there are a couple of ex-Army boots types around here, so you're in good company (quincie?).

Did you look at Sorel? We used to have their kids' boots when I was little, and just keep handing them down in the family...I'd trust 'em, and I kind of like these!

i have these for when the weather turns really serious. they come off at the office, of course. if it's just mildly gross outside, i wear these (from sporto; insulated, which is v. important):

i'm not sure what to think about shoes like this

http://www.payless.com/Images/600x600/064100_7_600x600.jpg

i don't think i "get" peep toe boots

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 30 September 2008 18:15 (fifteen years ago) link

those have more problems than just the peep toe. but yeah, it's kind of weird.

i just tried on the corso como boots i mentioned upthread, and unfortunately they're really slouchy through the ankle. nothing against slouchy boots, but that's so not what i want!

lauren, Tuesday, 30 September 2008 19:23 (fifteen years ago) link

ha yeah i perhaps did not pick the best example of shoe but the peep toe just really stuck out at me on that one for some reason.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 30 September 2008 19:27 (fifteen years ago) link

I have the worst taste in the world, but I'm looking for some boot type shoes. What do you guys think of these?

kind of digging this in wine, though they're not really what i need right now... http://tinyurl.com/48ygbh

burt, those are dangerously close those things I think are called Wallabys (sp?)? Thus I would say you could do better, IMHO.

quincie, Monday, 6 October 2008 00:38 (fifteen years ago) link

burt i vote Y on those, they're nice

xpost ha, i like wallabees

claudia schefter (daria-g), Monday, 6 October 2008 00:46 (fifteen years ago) link

It's a desert boot style ... they've been a thing in NYC for a while, I guess.

For a while, yeah....

i have a strange compulsion to buy these: http://tinyurl.com/3f3dg7

i know it is wrong.

highly theoretical, of course. (tehresa), Tuesday, 7 October 2008 13:23 (fifteen years ago) link

i like those! i almost bought a pair last weekend that were sort of like that, but they have a sort of golf shoe fringe across the top instead of lacing up. if that makes any sense.

lauren, Tuesday, 7 October 2008 14:32 (fifteen years ago) link

TZA: I dunno, I think those are a tiny bit precious but cute! Probably not a bad idea at all. Unless the quality is terrible, I didn't look that closely.

daria, I don't think they're ugly at all. But then I like Clark's, too.

Photos don't really do the Repetto's justice, but...

i love repetto shoes.

lauren, Tuesday, 7 October 2008 16:33 (fifteen years ago) link

Lauren, who made the very delicate brogue-styled black lace-ups you had on the other day??

Vampire romances depend on me (Laurel), Tuesday, 7 October 2008 20:38 (fifteen years ago) link

you'll never believe it... steve madden. which explains why the "leather" already has started to flake on the toes.

lauren, Tuesday, 7 October 2008 20:42 (fifteen years ago) link

Oh bah. I keep telling myself: NO MORE STEVE MADDEN. And then I hear the siren song of some glossy or metallic flat...

Vampire romances depend on me (Laurel), Tuesday, 7 October 2008 20:58 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah i saw some boots on endless i thought were cute and then noticed "STEVE MADDEN" and did not click.

two weeks pass...

these are the bomb! unfortunately men's shoes, they are way too big for me

common projects (expensive) and swear (cheaper) make nice mens shoes:

pierre hardy shoes are fully awesome. i want to tie satin boxes to all my shoes now.
gun shoes, as much as i dislike guns, are freakin great - you could lay on a chaise-lounge and pretend to shoot people! i want to do this! adult cops and robbers

what do you ladies think of these Alaia heels:
http://www.shoewawa.com/azzedine%20alaia%20heels%20ankle.jpg

i think they're alright, but i think they were one of the most photographed shoes this past paris season. i got at least 4 different women in them (editors of i-D, vogue nippon, tank magazine, and tinsley mortimer..)

also, theyre $1000

phil-two, Saturday, 25 October 2008 16:00 (fifteen years ago) link

those are beautiful.

horseshoe, Saturday, 25 October 2008 17:02 (fifteen years ago) link

i actually like them. not the usual style i go for, though (ha - "go for." more like "admire from afar").

lauren, Saturday, 25 October 2008 17:10 (fifteen years ago) link

Agree and agree: beautiful AND, if you can get past the heel height, very wearable, being black and unembellished except by the pos/neg contrast of the straps.

Also they look like they would cradle your instep and ankles in glove-soft leather. Win!

very nice
alaia can do no wrong it seems

claudia schefter (daria-g), Monday, 27 October 2008 14:32 (fifteen years ago) link

AHAHA so the girls are allowing themselves to be peeped now?

No, Alaia does no wrong. Am mad for the molded YSL shoe boot thing and do not have £700 for anything but a new computer.

So imagine my shock and awe when visiting the charity shop on the way back from my appt. and VALENTINO COUTURE CROC-SKIN SHOE-BOOTS WITH 5' STILETTO in BLACK. FOUR BRITISH POUNDS.

These are totally taxi shoes and I'm looking fwd to basic stiletto training seeing as I've been in ballet flats all summer.

AHAHA so the girls are allowing themselves to be peeped now?

haha! yeah, i got a good one of E, but she was cagey at first then I dropped YOUR name and she was like OHHH YEAH, ok go on then. Haha, thanks for that! Then I kept seeing her at parties at like 4am and she was much nicer. Also I was drunk and confessed that I have a little crush on, um, charlie. ha ha ha ha ha. so cute...

F, on the other hand, denied me photolove a couple times, but I did manage to get one of her when I piggy backed along when a more 'famous' streetsnapper was photographing her.

i chased her for half a block to get this photo. lucky she was in those heels and couldn't move very fast

claudia schefter (daria-g), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 01:57 (fifteen years ago) link

i feel like i have been seeing a lot of that shoe lately!

highly theoretical, of course. (tehresa), Tuesday, 28 October 2008 02:37 (fifteen years ago) link

whoa srsly! but not surprising
i kinda like that it's called 'oh deer' - 4 1/2 inch heel! i was wearing 3 1/2 inch heels at a party a couple wkends ago and was leaning down to get something from a side-table and my friend exclaimed "haha you look like a deer!" i wasn't wobbling, totally fine.
