I saw these boots at free people on Friday and posed the question: "would you wear these?" on facebook. When I first saw them I thought: "euuuwwww I would NOT wear those!" but then I looked... and looked again.
I would. I would wear them and love them.
'Cept... I don't have $438.00 to spend on "vintage" boots with "vintage" belts.
What I DO have is:
 |
| dear future recipient of a red.neck Chic pocketbook... i'm sorry you won't be getting these belts as pocketbook handles. a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do when it comes to cute footwear. |
I don't think I have cankles... if YOU think I have cankles don't tell me. I'm in denial... denial works for me.
Gonna make you some? I think you should - they are GROOVY (I'm gonna bring "groovy" back) in person and fun to wear!
comin' to you LIVE from a single-wide where these ALMOST make me want to put away my winter flip flops... hee-hee

they turned out fantastic!!! I'm thinking you need to find a way to add a little Duct Tape though, maybe in a design to cover that inside printing !!!
ReplyDeleteLMBO!!! I thought about that!!! But - I like the printing! How about... some duct tape layered over some lace - then make a belt out of that combo?
ReplyDeletethat sound delish too !! No doubt you'll come up with something suitably Red.neck.Chic!! LOL!!Can't wait to see !!
ReplyDeleteThose are GREAT!!! I'm guessing that is why so many belts were used on the others... to hide the 'size' and 'lot numbers'...
ReplyDeleteThose are COOL!!!
~shoes~
Cankles are the least of my worries. My ankles are so small, I wonder how they support the load I'm toting around! I wouldn't woof ya...I ain't spying no cankles on you either.
ReplyDeleteFor those who are ankle challenged...they already know boots and long britches are their best friends.
Deb
P.S. Now how about something for us widgets*?
*Translation: wide and short!
I love it, but I don't think yours are done yet needs more belts , some duck tape and some lace or bling.
ReplyDeleteShoes... probably - but I really do like the printing and if someone were standing on their head and reading it they would like it too. LOLOLOL
ReplyDeleteDeb - I'm on it... I'll let you know what I come up with! HAHAHA!!!
More belts - I can do that! Duct tape, lace and bling... oh yeah!! ;-D
You would come up with something fantastic like this! No, I wouldn't wear them but I'm a really conservative boring person LOL! (seriously) HOWEVER, I would cheer anyone else on to wear them!!! My older girls would LOVE them!!
ReplyDeleteThese are FAB!! I need to make a run to the thrift store this afternoon. I knew you'd find a way to make some. Thanks for sharing!! BTW, you could never have cankles with legs that thin!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, they are awesome! Such cute little cankles you have!!!
ReplyDeleteTHey are so awesome - I LOVE THEM!!! Cute little cankles too by the way!
ReplyDeleteI love 'em! You really should add them to your line. Now I know why you like your camera remote. Great job on the pics!
ReplyDeletewow, yours are amazing and if I was younger yes I would,, except I have fat legs,, I have cankles before I put the boots on,, I'm so glad I found you again, I had my blog attacked and I lost everyone.I have started a brand new blog and I have you on my blog list, I knew I followed you,, its just I have no list anymore,,,
ReplyDeleteGirl, you do NOT have cankles, but you've got some darn cute boots!!! (you're very creative and smart) I bought a pair of short boots this year and I'm lovin' em!! oh yeah, and I adore tights! xoxo

ReplyDeleteNo one should be scared of wearing something they like !! I'm 60!! and I'm gettin me some !! You go girl !!
*giggle* i HAD to wear tights... OR offer each of you sunglasses!!! There is NOT enough spray tan in the world - trust me on this! Oh... I coulda' wrapped my legs in duct tape... do they make it flesh colored? LOLOL
ReplyDeleteWow! Those are awesome! Now I need to find a pair of boots to alter!
ReplyDeleteI most definitely would wear them if I had the legs/ankles for them.
ReplyDeleteI like 'em!
I also like the detail of the size and lot number...but I'm weird like that.
What would Minnie Pearl's hat be without the tag? Just another hat!
who wants to wear that?
love the Cankle Boots!
Pat
Wowee! These boots are made for walking and that's just what they'll do. One of these days these boots are gonna walk away from you!
ReplyDeleteI like your design better than the "originals". However, those boots you cut up don't look too vintage! I cringed a bit when I saw the scissors!
Okay, I DO have cankles! Wanta make sumpin' of it?
Mal
You are amazing! I would never look at something like that and think I could make my own, I would just be sad that I couldn't afford them! It's so cool that you just made your own and they look just like the original!!
ReplyDeleteYours are better that the originals! they look great with tights!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. I LOVE those! How smart you are! LOVE them.
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing friend!!!! Wow! Kori xoxo
ReplyDeleteI could have used these cankle-covers after my last flight with 5 hr layover..
ReplyDeleteGirl, I didn't have cankles, I had thigh-kles!
It was extra traumatic as I was wearing shorts and flip flops.
Those are fabulous and I love your version the best...so cute with tights and tight jeans!!! SCORE!
ReplyDeleteThey are sooo cute! I love them!
ReplyDeleteFabulous!!
ReplyDeleteThank You Thank You!!! I keep tripping over stuff 'cause I'm watching my cute boots! LOL
ReplyDelete*doh*
*stares in disbelief at a good safe distance*
ReplyDeleteGod! Those boots are fabulous! You are so smart... I want a pair now... gotta find some boots to cut up. Got any more of them belts??? :D
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE those!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are Brilliant!
Love it! So very clever and cute - and GROOVY! I remember those days! I can't wait to share this with my daughter!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed my visit!
Kathy
Totally loving those! You are just a spitfire of amazing!
ReplyDeleteooh, those are just my size too! Let me know when you get tired of them, lol. Love how you made your own from what you had, I'm not sure I could cut up my treasured cowboy boots though.
ReplyDeleteThey look really cute on you. Great pics!
Those are so cute! Great job!
ReplyDeletetot
As a straight man, the best I can offer you is this: those look good on you, and you don't have cankles. Anything beyond that, and I'll have to direct you to my gay brother-in-law, who could give you the 'play-by-play' on your shoes.
