I've been wanting a pair of short brown booties for
a while now, but I haven't been able to justify buying a pair of brown combat
boots because I keep expecting them to go out of style. Although I am glad my
black combat boots have gotten their fair wear through 3 seasons now (here), I am happy to see a new brown bootie
standing out this season. I am dying for a pair of Chelsea boots, and I hope
they stick around for a couple of years.
I mean obviously I end up liking the most expensive
ones (Frye) because I can't make anything easy for myself. They give that
rustic feel that Frye always eludes, and pulls a little at the Texan heart
inside me. Realistically, I am wanting the Trotters Chelsea boot, which
surprised me as much as it did you. I usually perceive Trotters as an old lady
shoe brand. I have never spotted fashion-forward pieces in their assortment,
but if you didn't see the label they're perfect! Although I haven't seen them
in person, they look like a high quality leather, and I like the medium brown
color. If you're not looking to break the bank, the BDG Chelsea boot offered by
Urban Outfitters is only $59.00, and can definitely do the trick for a Chelsea
Boot craving. I'll be hunting around this weekend trying to find my right
Chelsea fix, and to blow of all the steam from finals week.
Side note: I'll also be shopping for is a nice pair
of cuffed jeans. I want a pair that is balanced between the super skinny
"jegging" and the boot cut. I am imagining wearing my Chelsea boots
with a pair of rolled up jeans that hit right above the ankle to show off about
an inch of skin between the boot and the end of the jeans. This may be crossing
over to a little boy-ish style, as I initially got the idea after seeing a man
wearing his combat boots this way, but fingers-crossed girls can pull it off
to? With the right styling..... I'll keep y'all updated.
Happy finals week to all my I-core friends! I'll
post a study playlist soon!
Enjoy! xx
