craving the finer things.

i don't know if it's a curse or what, but for as long as i can remember i've always had the knack for walking into a store and falling in love with the single most expensive item in the place.  maybe i've got an eye for quality?  maybe it's just the luck of the luck of the draw?  who knows.  but sometimes i wish this "gift" would take a nice long hike.  

below are some of my latest cravings - and of course, there are NO budget friendly replacements that could possibly ever exist.  so here i am... suffering in silence with this little invisible guy on my shoulder telling me to like all the expensive stuff.

  2. Hey love- I know how you feel. We don't have Free People around here but I'm lovin' those boots!! I just scored a pair from Born B.O.C. they are the Niny boot and an almost direct match to a mash up of two of Frye's boots, the Michelle Lace Up Tall Boot and the Jenna Cap Toe Lace up. Now I've been on the hunt for a substitute for the Melissa Tall Lace boot for over a year or two. I went on HauteLook and BING!!!! Found the Born Niny Boot. It's super cute not too crazy expensive and I got it half off to boot lol get it?? Check them out.. http://www.bornshoes.com/Product.aspx?ProductID=7802

    1. Those boots are pretty amazing. To me, the best thing about them is the handmade in USA factor. You can just feel the quality oozing through the computer screen!

    engaging, and let me tell you, you've hit the nail on the head. The problem is an issue that not enough folks are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I stumbled across this during my hunt for something regarding this.
