decisions



Wearing
American Apparel t-shirt, Bebe jacket, H&M scarf, Betsey Johnson tights, vintage denim shorts, Forever 21 bag, Franco Sarto boots.

I'm not sure if it was the lack of coffee or the studs or the fact that it was 8 am on black Friday but I was incapable of deciding whether these boots channeled Sienna Miller or screamed Little Miss Piggy on parade day. After being completely thrown for a loop and half a latte later, I went for them and am thrilled with my decision. Like wine (and George Clooney), I think they will get better with age.

Meanwhile, I wish the same would happen as I shop for a chandelier to replace the broken sad lamp in the corner of my room. Don't judge but I've been living with just a nightstand lamp...for months. Eeeeek, who am I?

i too would be thrilled with the boots decision! i'm terrible at making spontaneous decisions that often end in those "oh my god what have i bought" moments...

I have to agree, all judgment is called into question on Black Friday. Lowered prices = lowered standards? Not in this case, love the boots....so Sienna.

These were a great purchase! I always freak out minutes after buying something (buyer's remorse!) but then I get over it and enjoy my purchase.

deciding, especially on shoes, is always overwhelming. idk if it's just the fact of being a woman, or there's just a lot of beautiful shoes to own!
