saddles and spectators

i left this video alone for a few months and then watched it 8 times in a row again today. 



which leads me to these shoes:

asymmetrical spectator shoes that they all wear in the video.  they're by george esquivel and i doubt i'll ever find them in vancouver. 

speaking of vancouver, i've been debating getting a pair of bass saddle shoes.  i tried on a pair at gravity pope but after getting a good closeup view of the esquivel ones on the website i don't think i want these anymore:

vintage shoe finds

i'm not sure how i stumbled on this vintage shoe and handbag shop on etsy (if you can even call 80's gear vintage) but i love how everything is listed with clear and carefully measured sizes and details. 

despite my (somewhat irrational but sorta legitimate) weird issues with second hand shoes i think i'll buy a pair but i can't decide which one.  i'm going to leave all their tabs open so i can decide over the next day or so.  :)

i don't like pants

which is why i like jumpsuits.  

 

free people ever sequoia romper, tannis hegan rectangle bag, zeha berlin john land boots. 

i already have a tunic that kind of looks like this, except it's kind of stiff.  i'm not really a green person but i like seafoam.  also, i like seafoam with burgundy.  i don't think i would wear all these things together if i owned them all, but it could probably work that way. 

walk in the woods

i feel like this Shopbop lookbook has my name written all over it and makes me want a pair of worn-in brown leather lace-up oxford boots even though i've never been able to fit my legs into a pair so slim.  look at it!  military style jackets, lumberjack plaid tunics, boyfriend jeans, and shorts with tights!

jumpsuits

i love jumpsuits.  one-pieces.  rompers.  whatever you want to call them.

i had two goals for my christmas party outfit this year.  it would've been one or the other.  the first was the find something to wear with red tights.  the second was to find something to wear with my friend's mom's burgundy heels from the 70's.  i have achieved the latter.  yay!
