This pair of boots have been on my mind for the past couple of days. I remember checking them out when they were first available at Bergdorf Goodman's and though I thought they looked trendy and nicely detailed, I didn't give them a third look until a few days ago when this suddenly came creeping apropos from some shoe oriented corner of my mind (I am sure I am not the only person whose mind has a corner just for shoes!). I looked it up again and I think I am slowly falling for this.
I love the overall slouchy feel and look. It is a tad taller than most boots but you don't see or feel it because of its slouchy-ness. The leather is a warm dark shade of brown with hints of black and the toe shape has a nice sharpness to it. What I dig most about this is the slim belt on the top of the boots and on the bottom corners; the gold studded detail is not functional and though, in most other situations, I would prefer function, this time I am just quite happy for it to just be there.
I have to go play around with it some more but I think I will be saying 'Wrap this up please!" at the Gucci boutique in Paris in a few weeks time! Get this for US$1250 at Bergdorf Goodman or at your local Gucci boutiques or web-shop.
