I've been on the hunt for a good pair of flat black boots for a while now.. It's a staple that I avoided buying for some reason for a few years now.. While every other sane blogger is ranting about how 'ESSENTIAL IT IS TO HAVE GOOD ESSENTIALS!! RAAAH' I just tend to buy everything in pastel, electric blue, and my latest tendency is to buy practically everything in burgundy. Remember this
burgundy coloured suit? It has kind of become my uniform in several variations.. I added a vintage sweater, a vintage envelope bag, an American Apparel tee and an AA maxi skirt to my collection of bordeaux galore ever since. Maybe I should have a look at my compulsory colour co-ordinated shopping.. But, today is boots talk!
I will probably be getting myself one of these models sometime soon: I want something chunky to be worn underneath dresses for a little bit of contrast in Spring - I picture a flowy short dress with pastel socks and Doc Martens, for instance. Simple yet KAPOW!
So the big question is.. Should I go with the Docs or go with the Western take on the black boot thing? Voting time!
