It also came with a mini Urban Decay Potion Primer! I love that BONUS!
I am so appreciative of this gift!

Funky Metallic Boots

These are a few years old.
I got them from MACY's.
They are leather mid-calf boots.
I bought the silver pair first and called around to see who had the gold ones.
I took a 2 hour bus ride to get them.
They were on sale for $30 after-all! .
Pointy toes make them 2 hour shoes. Yes, I'll need a ride wherever we are going.


I hope I can sit down for most of the time while we are there.
The things we do for beauty! *laughing*

As stored with sequined handbags underneath in my Joy Mangano Stackable Drawer.

I took a break from shoes and boots for about five years. The past two years, I have focused on practical and comfortable shoes.
I need to step up my game again.
