These Boots Were Made For Walking

The Cat’s Meow :: Watts // Big Up // No flashOoo! I was so excited when my Jeffrey Campbell for Free People Skyler boots finally arrived in the land of Oz. I had seen them ages ago on the Free People website (we don’t have the store in Australia) and wish-listed them. Sadly, the black pair were sold out.

One day, months later while drooling over my wish list, I discovered the boots were back in stock! I bought them immediately, as well as a cute black and white striped layering top I’d been wanting for ages. I waited breathlessly for them to arrive. It took two or three weeks. And how cute is the box?

I’ve worn the top countless times since, but have ventured out in the boots only twice. The second time I even walked to work in them (a 20–25min stroll), which shocked the girls at the office. It shocked me too. Surprisingly they are quite well-balanced and not too difficult to walk in. I even forgot myself once and dashed a few steps in front of an oncoming car – not an effort I wish to repeat may I hastily add. These boots were made for walking – not running!

They really are stunners and will draw all eyes if you dare to wear. I love them.
