Just got the Anthropolgie catalog and these boots
must be a joke right? They're $248!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
lisah, ha! I was pretty certain, even before I clicked, exactly which boots you meant. I got the catalog last Friday and kept interrupting Hec during his late-night Venture Brothers watching to shove it under his nose, pointing to this or that craxily-priced item, and wail, "What the fuck? Whaaah?"
Though, to be perfectly honest, there was one stunningly beautiful pair of $750 boots in there. But everything else, either very pretty but not quite pretty enough to justify the bergoggling price, or else just incomprehensible like those button boots.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Hey, ita, I just read that Oxygen will air a documentary about female muay thai fighters in the fall August 7.

It is chock full of ugleeee!
There is one pair of $468 boots I like...and that's really about it.
My friend who works at a small clothing/accesories store in the neighborhood said that Anthropologie was carrying the same, exact sunglasses her store sells for $15 for about $40. And they are $5 from the manufacturer. I have some things I love from Anthro. but I think I'm done with them!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oooh!
My basic reaction to Anthropologie is either love or hate. And after that, either sale or anaphylactic shock from full price.

I really adore these boots, even though there's no possible way I would pay practically a month's rent for, well, any item of clothing at all, let alone one that's going to be stuffed full of feet and socks and scuffing along the ground.
But these, or these, or these? A world of NO.

I'm holding out for new Fluevog boots. A Trusted Source of Mine told me that they've seen an advance copy of the fall Fluevog catalog: batwing-scalloped heels, lined in red leather, pointed toes with squared-off tips, and the boot (knee-high) comes to a point up the back of the calf.

There's an Anthropologie store down the block from me... and I've yet to see even one thing that was worth the price they wanted for it.

How short are you having it cut, shrift?
Quite short, compared to how very long it was. It's just barely brushing my shoulders now.
