For several years now I have been on the search for my 'perfect' pair of knee high flat boots, every Winter lamenting I lacked this 'staple' item in my wardrobe...and finally, I have found them! I had spotted these Chloe buckle boots a while back on net-a-porter, and as always, it was sold out in my size, I was so happy to find them again...
I see that I will be wearing mostly flat shoes in the coming months, and especially for my trip to Japan, I needed some good flat shoes, including the Chloe boots, and also a nice pair of Lanvin flats, which I have also had on my 'wishlist' for quite some time...after a little rigmarole (bought 3 pairs, one order cancelled - silly shopzoeonline, one order returned to NAP), I finally found my Lanvin flats...

I am so happy with my recent purchases as they have been something I have been after for so long...what about you, any staple items on your wishlist?
Love your boots and the lanvin flats !They seem to look very comfortable to wear.
ReplyDeleteI am looking for a cross body bag that i can travel easily and conveniently. But i am not sure what brand. I will be going to Hong Kong, Australia, China in the coming months...so I think probably a cross body bag is most suitable, i am not sure..actually, can you recommend me some? : )
LOVE the boots. Stylish and useful at the same time. Great buy. Hope that you keep blogging while you are in Japan!! When are you going?
ReplyDeleteLOVE those boots! They're so chic!
ReplyDeleteYeah the boots look quite versatile and easy to match with multiple outfits. I love that about shoes.
ReplyDeleteNice buys! Stylish and practical! Flat boots like those always seem like such a smart buy, but I never seem quite able to convince myself that they are not better with a heel :p
ReplyDeleteoh yes i absolutely agree with you , I really love the paraty bag...thanks for your suggestion : )
ReplyDeleteThose Chloé knee high boots are amazing!!

I totally love the boots!they are cool!!
ReplyDeletei completely understand your happiness...those are perfect 'staple' shoes (albeit luxury)! love those Chloe boots. it really is hard to find the perfect pair.

Both pair of shoes are great. The boots do look perfect. I really want a pair of Repetto ballet flats...I keep buying cheap ones and I'd really like to invest in a nicer pair one day.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comments everyone!
ReplyDeleteH - the cancelled order was from www.shopzoeonline.com - I am never buying anything from them again. They cancelled because they couldn't 'verify' my credit card, how ridiculous! I have been shopping online for years and have never had an order cancelled because of that. I gave them my bank's phone number and everything...no other store has had an issue *rant over* :)
little fish - as I wrote on your blog, if I could choose a cross-body bag, I'd love a Chloe Paraty (so gorgeous!) :)
the photodiarist - I go to Japan mid-December, can't wait!
the little fashion treasury - woo hoo to your Ann D's!!! It sure does pay to be patient ;) Most of the time I find my 'wishlist' items months, if not year(s) after I see them!
Rebecca - I have heard good things about Repetto, have tried a few pairs, they're so cute!
xx to you all!

ReplyDeleteI'm loving those boots!

Oooh! Such great boots. It's been years now since I've been longing for the perfect pair. With winters here in Boston, they have to be sturdy, and be able to withstand the weather. Frankly, that's all I wear come winter. So I'd say that boots and scarves are my staple for winter that is.
