  1. Well done, Mr. X! The boots looked sharp, and the jacket was pretty stylish! Bravo, my friend!

     

    I like the boots too! Even though they have basically no heel, they are quickly becoming one of my favorite pairs!  It also proves that for me it is becoming more than just "heels".  Don't get me wrong, I love heels!  But I love putting together complete stylish outfits just as much!  And if a nice pair of heels is part of the outfit, so much the better!

     

    Of course black jeans would've looked fine too, but I really like that you wore blue jeans, grey is great for bringing out a colour element. It's nice that the lady's remark picked out the boots - I don't think compliments like that are given unless the boots are worn well with the rest of the outfit, so definitely a success!

     

    Black jeans would work!  But I didn't want to have to much drab in my outfit.  And you are right about compliments.  I do tend to get them more or less when I am wearing a complete stylish outfit!

     

    I like the coat Mr. X. Looks quite warm and cozy for the cold days.

     

    You would think so, but not exactly!  Maybe with a scarve and gloves you could wear it on a really cold day.

     

    Great outfit! I like the shoulder bag, too. Well done!

    I like the bag too!  The colour goes with alot!  And it is very gender neutral in design.

  2. It's been quite cold here so I haven't really had a chance to get out much.  But today it was warmer than it's been so I made an outing out of it.  I had to run a few errands and do some window shopping.

     

    One of my first stops was the bank to get some cash.  I was going in and a middle aged women was coming out.  As she was leaving she said nice boots!  I said thank you!  It kinda took me by surprise, but it was a nice way to start my outing. The rest of the outing went off without a hich.  No other interactions either positive or negative.  I finished what I needed to do before heading home and calling it a day..

     

    Now for the outfit

     

    1) black t-shirt

    2) grey ladies military style jacket

    3) tan shoulder bag

    4) darker blue skinny jeans

    5) greyish brown wedge heel boots

     

    Now for some pics.  Comments and suggestions welcome.  Thanks!

  3. Here is my latest addition to my collection.  I got them in a thrift shop for less than $20!  The brand is Craze.  They are a brownish grey slouchy boot with buckle detailing, and a side zipper.  They also have a 3 1/4" wedge heel.  They fit perfectly and are very comfortable.  Can't wait to wear them out!

  4. It's been a while since I have been able to get out.  But today I did.  Here is a report. I had a few errands to run so I decided to make an outing out of it.  I had a grey jacket I bought a while back that I wanted to try, so I built an outfit around it.  Once I had my outfit together I was out the door. I did all the errands I needed to get done.  Then It was free time for Mr. X.  Free time usually includes a trip to the local thrift shops.  I like shopping there!  Because when you experiment with clothing and shoes like we do, not every outfit is going to be a winner!  So if I buy something and regret it later, or it doesn't look as good as it did in store, at least I didn't spend an arm and a leg.  The first store was fruitless but I did much better at the second one. I spotted a pair of shoes.  The color and heel struck me right away!  they were a half to full size smaller than I normally wear.  I tried them anyway.  They actually fit!  They were just a touch small but nothing that wont get fixed with a little working in.  I also noticed that they provided a nice amount of "toe cleavage".  I new I had to have them!  And the $8.99 price tag sold me even more!  This is where it gets a little interesting. I brought them up to the counter.  There was a older lady checking out in front of me.  When I put the shoes on the counter she turned to me and said, those are nice!  Pretty color!  I wholeheartedly agreed with her.  Then it was my turn to pay.  The younger gentlemen proceeded to ring up my shoes.  Right or wrong, I was getting strong "gay" vibes from him.  We didn't speak much other than the usual customer/sales associate talk.  once finshed I grabbed my bag and proceeded to leave.  Then he said oh, and nice boots!  I turned back to him, smiled, and said thanks!  It was an interesting compliment because the same thing happened to me on one of my previous outings!  I was wearing the same boots that time, and my gay vibes were quite high that time as well!  I definitely left the store on quite a high.  I usually don't get much interaction or compliments on my travels.  So I will take them as I get em!  After a bit more window shopping I decided to call it a day and head home. Here is the outfit of the day 1) tan Aldo boots 2) black skinny jeans 3) white polo type shirt 4) grey military inspired jacket 5) tan over shoulder bag And here is the skinny on the shoes I bought.  The brand is BCBGirls.  The color is purplish/wine colored with a snake/croc print on them.  As I said before I was drawn to the color right off!  The heel is interesting as well.  It is 4 inches and appears to have a slight curve or angle to it.  The shoe as a whole has a real sleek look to it.  And as I mention before they provide some nice toe cleavage.  Now for some pics. I included some of the outfit as well as the shoes I bought.  Enjoy!

  5. These are the BCBG shoes the Mother in law gave me for Christmas. I wore them to the gig I played earlier today but they are kind of tight ( about a quarter size too small ) and I changed into my sneakers to play.

     

    This is about the biggest Platform I can tolerate. ( 1/2inch or less ).

     

    Way to go!  I wish I had a female relative who I could share my shoe love with, let alone have them buy me some!

     

    thanks, not too much, they were 40 % off.

     

    Nice!  I would love to own a designer pair but the price always puts me off.

  6. Most women will tell you that they can never have too many pairs of black shoes.  I guess the same can be said for this guy...lol

     

    I was browsing the local thrift shops today when I came upon these beauties!  I tried them on and they fit like a dream!  They also felt quite towering on my feet!  They are practiacally brand new, with almost no wear and tear whatsoever!  And then when I saw the $10 price tag I new I had to have them!

     

    The brand is George, which I believe is Walmart.  They are flat black with some detailing on the toe box.  The heel measures 4 and 3/4 inches with no platform.  As I said earlier, they feel quite high on my feet!

     

    I cant wait for spring and summer to give these beauties some action!

  7. Here is an update. I tweeted Debby on her twiiter.  And suprisingly she replied shortly after.  The booties are from Aldo!  That suprised me.  It means they will be affordable to the masses.  But I looked on the website and can't find anything that resembles what she was wearing.  Any more help would be appreciated!  I want a pair even more now!
