Boots Made for Walking

Now that Vancouver has returned to its typical doom and gloom dreariness, it's time to whip out the boots!  I tried to put it off for so long but it seems like this torrential downpour renders flats and sandals unacceptable for outdoor foot attire.

When indulging myself in the latest shoe porn, I couldn't help but entertain the idea of getting my hands on at least one of these beauties :P (read: self control might be failing here).  I've already been through a few knee high boots and figured in my usual morning rush, these ankle (hopefully slip-on's) would be a better choice...

Diaries of A (Recovering) Shopaholic Pt 1

After a weekend of turkey comatose overload, it's nice to be getting back into the routine of things.  Though admittedly I wish the weekend wasn't over, sometimes doing nothing and sitting on your ass all day, isn't something to be repeated for an extended period of time.

On another note, the concept of saving money for the purpose of moving out (and paying off student debt) has proven to be quite the challenge.  Especially when the bf gives you the stink eye anytime he notices a new purchase (which tends to be often), means having to resort to hiding tactics. Hence, when you do unveil the item in question, you can truthfully respond, "Oh this thing? I got it a while ago, just never had a chance to wear it..."

Just because I can't spend my hard earned cash doesn't mean a girl can't dream right? I figure making wish-lists somewhat fulfills my inner desire to accumulate new things without actually having to drop a dime...though it can't be guaranteed my self-control will always be victorious.
