I’ve been thinking about the best way to introduce myself and thought what better way than through my favourite pair of vintage shoes! (Well, technically I guess their boots… but here goes it…!)
These bad boys, despite their haggard appearance are still my shoe of choice for most occasions. (except when the skies open- for obvious reasons!)
I bought them around five years ago from that well loved vintage paradise, Rokit, for about £10 and wore them quite literally into the ground.
I know cowboy boots aren’t the coolest thing around anymore, now cast into the back of the wardrobe with the infamous DM’s or god forbid the dreaded Ugg boot, but I love them! And not just for comfort reasons either! Without giving away to much, (not going to fully embarrass myself by admitting it but…) it may have something to do with my secret crush on a certain Lone Ranger!)
(Check out this video, ahh swoon!)
Anyway, besides what posters I may have on my walls… what I think I’m trying to say is that those vintage heels, that we all love to have, mean so much more than another pair of shoes. They’re like old friends… already worn in, already have those endearing scars, (that you know if asked could tell a story or two) and regardless of what shabby condition they get themselves into, all they need is a bit of love and care and they’re ready to party once again!
One, Two, Buckle my shoe…

Love live the vintage shoe I say!
