ahead of my time

Remember those slouchy suede boots I had shortened last month?

Imagine my giddy surprise to see the following in Isabel Marant’s Spring 2012 collection:

It’s an utter fluke when style coincidences like these come along, so I couldn’t resist sharing. I like to think it gives hope to the rest of us when someone who isn’t Alexa Chung (ahem…) gets a big ol’ high five from the fashion world, entirely by accident. And thank goodness, as I know I’d have been coveting these $580 babies something fierce. Now, if the craving strikes, you’ll know just how to get the look for a fraction of the cost.

Great job, Becki! I’ve been coveting those IM boots this year, but they are so not necessary for this weather. During my layover in Seoul, I couldn’t help but hop on the bus to the shopping area, and there were a bunch of IM-inspired boots, but the quality was not good. I’m getting too old for the throw-away stuff.

Super clever! I recently did that to one of my boots, but it was an at-home snip snip. Saw the Isabel marant boots recently, they’re cute!
