If you have kept up to speed with my posts thus far, you know I am obsessed with boots. And like most things, I have a favorite (pair). These boots also seem to be admired by a lot of others as well, from friends, to random folks on the street, to many of you new, kind readers.
Unfortunately, these happened to be one of my few splurges, so they don't necessarily go with the whole affordability theme of our site. However, as I briefly stated before, I think there are certain items you can and
should spend a little more on. Boots are not the exception to that rule. Especially a well-made pair from Italy that smell of sweet, sweet leather. These beauts came from a little shoe store in Brooklyn called,
Bentley's, that specializes in women with boats for feet - up to size 13 to be exact. I'm a few sizes smaller, but this place was right up my alley. I stumbled across this store as I was trying to explore my new neighborhood and was taking a walk to the Brooklyn Promenade. Should've known I'd end up shopping instead.
Anyway, they are
Evado, and I don't like talking about my splurge prices as much as the amazing steals I find, but they were on sale and I had never seen any like them before so I just had to have them. I think they look great with brown, black, and blue skinny jeans, as well as with tights and dresses. They've already taken quite a beating and I've only had them since February, but I really do love them and think they were a well thought out purchase that will last me a long time. Now, if you please, do tell us where you find your boots, splurges and steals alike.

i agree there are certain things to splurge on and boots is certainly one of them. these are so yummy.
This post reminded me of my eternal quest for new boots, so I started poking around just now. Somehow I came upon this ultimate compilation of (what seems like) every boot for sale right now. You can just scroll right through w/o having to click ‘next page’. Each pair links directly to the website where they can be purchased.
brilliant and time saving.
warning: a lot of these are pricier but there are plenty in the $40-$100 range that I’m considering now.

Those boots are amazing! I have a similar pair of flat brown boots, and I get compliments on them ALL the time. It’s a shame that it’s summer now in my little town..
Shoes are *always* the thing to splurge on!
