Hello darlings! I apologize for the massive delay on posts :(

That I can blame on a misture of tardiness, and a pile of uni work which is only worsened by even more tardiness! Perhaps it is true what they say about winter blues? Once it hits you, it hits you pretty badly. Not that I'm turning into the next Asian Sylvia Plath or anything like that, but you know when you just cannot be bothered to do anything? It certainly does not show me in the brightest of lights but I'm sure as a student, you can empathise. You can only work so much and then you burn out right when work needs to press on. But enough about my woes... (they really are rather trivial), today, I did what every broke student fashionista does when they get a dose of ennui...I went shoe-window shopping online. Yes. It's like driving a stake through my heart, but at the same time, I was comforted by their mere presence. Right there on my screen. Screaming for me to click 'Put in Basket'. 

I guess you could say I am having a major case of the Chelsea/Pistol Boot fever because as you can see from my soon-to-be shoe cupboard inventory, most of the pairs I am loving at the moment are either one or the other. I still have a soft spot for velvet slippers and the ubiquitous Oxfords, but these boots are just....

...they need love. All the love I can give. 

Obviously, Jeffrey West is one after my own heart, since most of the boots I fancied are his....but I 'shuffled' them in the collage as to not make it THAT much obvious..

In any case, whether it is like giving an addict a shot of fatal acid, or giving an aspiring Carrie Bradshaw an aspirational cheat sheet, you just can't help but feel hot and bothered over these beautiful pairs. Perhaps it'll have to be aspirational for a tiny bit longer for me, unless I get started and find husband numero uno soon. 

Lots of love, and stay tuned for more posts over NYFW, LFW and this weekend's Four Continents Championships with my seasonal Mao Asada updates!

Much love,
