My babies

Anyone who knows me, knows about my penchant for all things edgy.

I bought this pair of biker boots three years ago, and they were the trigger to said penchant. Those boots were loved for three good years. I'd planned on showin' em a lot more lovin'.... But I'd lost them four months ago. It was a terrible time of heartache and despair, as I tried to face the hurdles that life threw at me, without them.

And then, finally, today... They were found.

I was so happy I cried.

Yes. I genuinely cried.

In my defense, I have a lot of memories tied to these boots. They've stuck to me through thick and thin, and they are both a source of familiarity in the world of the unknown, and a token of luck in the many difficulties I face.

xoxo children,

kim

Shoes I Desperately Want.

Steve Madden's Traisie Blue Suede Platform Pumps.
I love them so much.
They're also surprisingly comfortable, I tried them on at the store. Unfortunately, I had to tear myself away from them, because I really don't think I need another pair of shoes.
Despite how absolutely beautiful they are.

Next one are these.

Hottopic's Red Animal Print Platform Heels
Ive wanted these for so long, and they're finally on clearance!

Hopefully these shall be mine very soon.

I hate baggy dresses.

Okay, I don't hate ALL baggy dresses. I mean, I'm sure there are people out there that really need them, like pregnant or obese women. In that case, ignore my pointless rant.
Anywho.
Baggy dresses. REALLY? I just don't see the appeal in them.

I was at Zara today, shopping with Amy, another diligent Zara worshipper. Zara was on a super sale right now, and of course, I can't resist a sale. I'm like a moth to a fire. Or a lamp. Or a bright object. Or whatever it is moths flock to and burn in. (In this case, it's burning a hole in my wallet.)
So I'm standing in line for the trial room, bored out of my senses and people-watching (as usual) when I see this woman with the figure of a bikini model pick out this hideously large, baggy dress that cut off right at mid-calf. That's another thing. I hate dresses that cut off at mid-calf. Even if you have fantastic killer legs, they still make them look stumpy. Why, why, why would people wear them?!
Anywho. This woman picks out the dress from the pile of smushed together discarded dresses. Totally expecting her to put it down with a look of disgust, I was about to turn away. But then she shocks me - She SMILES, and checks the price tag!
Oh, the HORROR!
And then, if my mind was not already reeling from the mind-numbing shock of someone SMILING at a baggy dress, she... She joins the line to the trial room! The dress in hand!
I must have stood there gaping with my mouth wide open for about ten minutes. (Or, okay, ten seconds. Whatever, tomato tomaato)
And then later - yes, I was watching her. No, I'm not a stalker - She BOUGHT IT!

I don't get it.
If you can fit into this -

Why would you wear this? -

...I honestly do not understand.

Platformed Pumps - Yes or No?

All right, so, being a complete shoe addict, I recently bought a nude pair of patent platformed pumps. Are they amazing? Yes. Are they my first platforms? Yes. I usually just buy heels without platforms.
I never saw the appeal in platforms. They always seemed kind of over-the-top to me. I just honestly couldn't understand the hype over platforms.
But, I was in Brussels, and I came across this beautiful pair of nude platform pumps, and I knew I had to splurge. Besides, I've wanted a nude pair for ages.
So I did.
Now, I suddenly understand what the hype is all about.
Platforms are my new love.
They look amazing, and somehow are not uncomfortable at all. The first time I wore them was to the movies, and they were super comfortable.

The great part about them, is that although they ARE very platformed, it's kind of hidden inside the shoe, so it gives them the illusion of only being slightly platformed.
They're from eram, a store I have never heard of. but looked okay, I guess. They were 49.99 euros, which isn't too expensive for a pair of pumps.
So, the next time you're in Brussels, pop over to eram and splurge on this pair.
