Boot-less !!!

i am no fashion freak but there are some trends that i don't mind trying. i am not that adventurous but i am also not a fuddy duddy old fashioned hag! there are times i like to play dress up , not to grab anyone's attention ( i hate that , actually!) and then , my mood can suddenly change and i prefer to go way beyond casual, almost on the verge of looking like a maid!!! LOL!Bags, shoes, accessories ... i love them all :) Shabby T shirts that fade at the shoulders, shorts that should not see the light of day LOL.... i love those too! I hope that makes me a happy medium , not too shabby all the time but not too much of a fashion snob either!
last night i was online and came across those online fashion sites. One particular site that i get my colored lens from also sells beautiful dresses :) and at very affordable prices. i am skeptical about the quality of the fabric though. But maybe i can try one first to see how nice they are.
And then in Facebook i saw this site for shoes and i am a sucker for those!!! i cant remember when i actually became an Imelda Marcos but i must have turned into one overnight , a decade ago!!! Hmmm, actually no, LOL i remember how i used to go to work with matching shoes for every outfit :P Ok, guilty as charged!! Call me Imelda Ean!

Anyway i saw this pair of low cut boots that caught my fancy right away. it would go so well with jeans :) And here is the pic ..... , but then i remembered how my "friends" had a very very long laugh when they found out that i wanted to get a pair of boots. I was quite disappointed cuz they really laughed their heads off! They didn't know that i had already worn out 3 pairs of those. I guess they have never seen me in one and thought that i was going to get those knee high boots. NOT THESE!!! They teased me for half a day , and that's like hours and hours!!! So i didnt get any for more than a year after that embarrassing and very frustrating trip! Sigh!
maybe they think i should dress old.... or maybe i am too old for boots! But then again they aren't the fashion police. The whole incident did make me think twice about mentioning that word every again in their presence!
if i do go out shopping and get a pair , i doubt if i will dare wear them in front of my friends! i dont's wish to be the laughing stock again! It was not a good day of memories but it will stay etched in my mind forever!
PS: In case u too think i look ridiculous in boots, these are the ones i used to wear. Are they so ridiculous? Be honest!( Have to change the pic cuz suddenly it disappeared) E-mbarrassed!!
