…procured…

March 18 2011
ALESHA (I mean, COME ON) leather platform Chelsea Boots from asos

Reasons why I purchased these boots:

  • they are my namesake
  • they are black ankle boots
  • they were on sale
  • asos let me pay with Paypal, so it’s not like I was spending *real* money
  • shipping was free

Reasons why my recent purchase of these boots was probably a bad idea:

  • spring is about to begin
  • a very hot and dry summer will soon follow
  • I haven’t touched a shoe with a heel on it since December of 2010

I would blame this lapse of logic on pregnancy, but I’d rather blame Rachel Zoe.

    love them… i doubt you’ll be wearing them in the hot, sweaty summer but they’re so standard that you can tuck them away and just wait til fall/winter- it always comes too fast anyway.

    love your blog, btw :)

    All those picture of a pregnant Rachel Zoe in super high heels should have the caption ” Do not try this at home”. I do not know how people like rachel and victoria beckham can prance around in super high stiletto heels while pregnant.

    You can always pull and Oprah and only wear the shoes when sitting.

    Those will be a great fall boot to have.
