It should be a GREEN DAY here in the Bungalow
I harken from an Irish background but I am not doing a St. Patty's Day post!
Are these crazy booties or what?
Spying these cowgirl booties made me do a little happy dance
(not a square dance tho'I don't know how!)
I thought why not buy them...
I have never worn cowboy or cowgirl boots...
leather or gum boots yes
even over the knee boots back in the 70's
oh and I had a pair of white patent leather platform boots!
lovely daughter has a classic black pair of cowboy boots
hers are a well known quality brand
she let me try them on...
they were a wee bit snug
but they did whet my appetite...
J is a fashionable young woman
and she can wear almost anything and make a style statement.
She wears vintage quite a bit and mixes it up to make it personal.
She inherited my mother's fashion gene...
need I say that
it skipped a generation!
Janet from the Gardener's Cottage has a red pair...
she has a red theme going too...she's so cute...
Where do you stand on red lipstick?
A friend of my DIL who I recently met up with when we attended the same gathering
wore a very striking shade of red lipstick...Venetian by MAC
she is blonde and fair of complexion...
some women have many a gift when it comes to making a style statement.
I digress...back to the boots
These boots fit perfectly
are comfy
and considering that they are vintage they are in remarkably great shape
and the price under $20...
win win win!
What am I going to wear them with besides a big smile?
A Hermes scarf ?
and maybe some red lippy!
Wishing you a lovely Green Day!

I adore those booties. Of course, my POV is influenced by living here in the SW US for many years, and cowboy style is a big part of the style mix. That color combo is lovely. I hope you enjoy them for many years.
What a steal! I like the black/camel combination.
I bought a red lipstick recently - I wear it often, but must admit I feel that I sometimes feel weird in it. I guess it takes some getting used to for those of us new to it.
I like the jig the booties are doing.
I used to hate red lipstick because I have blue eyes and dark hair so it makes me look like a vampire but now I wear it twice a year and everyone gawps because my lips look massive when they are slaked red!
Your smile is mine ... crazy boots. I love who you write about your new boots. I still am a women who never owned cowboy boots before. Go ahead!

Happy St Patrick's day I have lots of lovely Irish friends they always send me Shamrock...would love to grow some but has never worked for moi!
Love the 'cheeky' boots had to smile when I saw the photo of them! You seem to find many great items.ida
Those are great booties! I had a pair of a similar shape (though not as detailed) in black many years ago and wore them to death. They went with everything.
They are kick a** booties, Hostess!
They will be fun to work an outfit around.

Janet you have the fashion gene..in abundance!
Those booties look like fun and I hope you have fun wearing them and what a bargain.
I recently bought a good ole Max Factor red lippy that is subtle and am loving it.
I have Irish ancestory too. Happy St Pats Day.
