so i was cruising along facebook today (which is rare) and i saw an ad for boots.
i clicked over and i ended up drooling over all kinds of pretty western boots that i didn’t know existed!
first i fell in love with these completely AWESOME BOOTS.
i seriously think they are the prettiest boots in the world.
then i found these short black embroidered boots.
then i saw they also came in short brown boots. i LOVE these.
i thought these were cute and different… LEOPARD & BUTTERFLY BOOTS.
i liked these FANCY BOOTS… they seem dressier than the boots at the top.
and then the RED BOOTS!!! i kinda sorta could marry these boots.
all of these were by Old Gringo on Amazon… and WAY way waaaaaaaaaaaaay out of my price range.
i am more of a target or old navy boots kind of girl.
but i was feeling dreamy.
and letting myself go there in my head for a little while.
you know…pretending i was Oprah and could get any shoes i wanted.
do you ever play that kind of game?
it’s not very a very good game i you are working on contentment….
oh… i also play it every time i walk through anthropologie too. 🙂
andrea - I know! These have been on my pinterest wish list & amazon wish list for over a year. And there they shall stay. Every once in a while i just like to drool and imagine my feet in those beautiful boots.
Gina in Louisville - Don’t forget Meg-Oprah, everyone in the studio audience gets a pair too!
Laura - This is what I do Meg…
I go on the Anthro site…and I FILL my cart!!! Thousands of dollars in my cart!
Then I close my laptop and walk away
and I FEEL like I just shopped!!!
I get nothing!!!!
And it turns out…
I didn’t need any of it anyway!
Sometimes it’s just fun to FEEL like you can buy anything you want….
but I do hope someone buys you those boots
sorry
it wont be me
I’ll be buying you something at Target….
Lynni - i love looking at boots too, im a red or dead girl myself. hoping desperately that my husband heard me all year long saying how much i need new pretty boots for winter ( i do actually need boots if we are expecting even half the snow they are saying ) and gets me some for Christmas
Amy - My daughter is also 9 and she loves Lego friends. She loves putting them together and playing with them. I am also going to get her some American Girl crafts. Some we have done together and some she assembles herself. Merry Christmas! :0). Happy shopping and good luck!
PS my daughter just bought with her own money the lego friends high school and is enjoying it so much!

CathyC - If I was a cowboy boot wearing girl, I think I would pick the Fancy Boots. Hi Meg!
Kimberlee Jost - I can’t sleep and come over here and you’re pretending you’re Oprah in Old Gringos!
I miss you.
Jill - I give ya about a day and you will have a new blog sponsor! I think you are do a pair just for this post!
Boots are an investment – you will have them FOREVER! Since I became a mom – 15 years ago, I have justified spending a bit more on good jeans and boots – I feel like I spent money on business suits and cocktail dresses that I wore WAY less than the jeans and boots that have become my everyday wardrobe!

Sara Torbett - Boots have been on my wish list for a loooooong time. And this week I won a gift card to country outfitters! BUT, the ones I love are the flowery ones too. The $500 ones. YIKES. But aren’t they pretty?! 🙂
Anthropologie is so, so dreamy. I saved up and bought an owl mug that cheers me up every single morning last time I went.
sandy - I love the discount room in anthropologie!! It was another 20% off after Thanksgiving. Finally hit normal prices!
chrissi - pretending you are Oprah. You are too funny and way more fun.
Linda - ohh i want the red ones!!
Mindy - I mostly have two kinds of footwear in my closet – boots and flip-flops. You found some pretty cute ones. Maybe Santa will drop a pair down your chimney : )
Ami - I was just drooling over that top pair of boots the other day. 🙂

Molly - just admiring the beauty!!
