I got my Mother's Day present a little early. We went into one of the farm supply shops in town today to pick up milk replacer for the calves. While Husband was looking at the feed, I was checking out the bird feeders & clothes & pretty things (they have lots of pretty things there). B.B. decided he needed to help his dad pick out milk replacer, so we headed back to the feed area when I spotted these. I had seen them last summer and loved them, but the $116.99 price tag was a little steep for me...but I couldn't resist checking them out again. There were only 2 pairs left & I noticed a bright orange tag on the label. They were on clearance for $30! So now they live at my house.
As my heels are seriously narrow (QM and Daddy had to have my dress shoes made for me at a specialty shop in St. Louis when I was a kid), I need to get some heel pads for them. I also want to invest in some good inserts (I'll be gellin' like a felon). But I love them! They look pink in the picture, but are actually purple snakeskin & pearlized purple leather uppers.
Husband is unsure about them. I explained that they are the "official boot of the PBR" (Professional Bull Riding association), but he said he doubts PBR riders are big into purple snakeskin. I said, "You think they're horrible, don't you?" He said, "No. I'm just saying I wouldn't buy them." That's when I pointed out that he just did...I'm just glad he doesn't want to wear them. Then I'd be a little worried.
