Black studded boots, Chanel and Kesha

I love black boots. I can't say I used to be a huge wearer of black boots, but after discovering the comforts of docs (Dr. Martins) I haven't been able to go back. Not to mention how hot they look with a pair of nice leggings and a baggy cardigan for a simple casual chic outfit. I'm more inclined to go with a mid length, since my legs are not the longest so the ankle height type of boots looks quite good on me, and less of a hassle than finding a knee length pair that is ACTUALLY knee length :P (not thigh height). Lucky for me a mid length boot is a knee length boot and I save money, WOOO  :).

I've been trying to find a pair of black studded boots lately, for those days where you want to look slightly rebellious. Think studded boots, black tights, a baggy jumper with tousled hair and a slouchy bag. If you want to take rebellious to the next level check out Kesha's outfit:

Ahh Kesha, you are too cool!

It's also an awesome way to tone down a feminine outfit

So I started my shopping expedition online. Nothing really caught my fancy on eBay so I decided to head over to google to get some inspiration, and then, I found the PERFECT BOOT!

*cue heavenly music* I spent the next hour stalking these pair of Chanel boots!!! And of course they had to be released at least 1 year ago and they are nowhere to be found!! Much less in my tiny foot size!!! I would have handed over so much money to whoever had a pair of these.....RIP my dream of owning these Chanel boots.

how GORGEOUS are these??

While wandering around, I stumbled upon this pair of boots from Wanted Shoes Co. They are by ROC and priced at around $150 and they are so nice!! As I thought about it though, I figured - I want the studs in gold!! So that's it I'll be making my own pair soon with gold studs and I'll be sure to include a tutorial for you girlies :) Here are the shots from my little shoe searching expedition:

The shape and the low heel are very nice!

I thought these were the cutest studded gumboots :)

Wish me luck :D!

Window shopping adventures - for girls on a budget

We all love looking at pretty things :), but it doesn't mean we have to buy it. This I have learnt the hard way, though a shopping addiction.

In high school we had uniforms, probably because girls could concentrate on studying and not shopping. But when university hit we could wear whatever we want whenever we wanted, and man some of the girls were stylish. I blame you guys for my addiction :P. your clothes were a way to communicate your identity, and I wanted to be cool :) so off I went to buy things that were pretty, too many things. So many I found stuff I bought on my bedroom floor that I didn't remember buying and never wore and I had lay bys all over town. I guess you start to realize that you have a shopping problem - but no didn't stop me, I kept buying.

So now I have switched to admiring the pretty things through window shopping. It's a cheaper exercise :) and you only buy something when you can't stop thinking about it! That cut back a lot of your purchases :) there are some pretty cool trends coming out this season!

One of them is Fluro shoes!!! A bit retro but loving it!


Also found some bright clutches. Love the mix of color and metal
