So I wanted some fun, steamy boots to wear to conventions this year, and I decided I finally wanted a pair of heels. I scored a pair of Frye Villagers on eBay for about $20 (!) and then steamed them up more by sewing these buttons over each of the eyelets. I wanted to get the effect of this kind of boot, without paying $400.
So I've got them on, and I'm wearing them around the house to break them in, and holy crap three-and-a-half-inch heels are tall. Wow. I mean, it's not like I'm stumbling around, I can handle them just fine, but man, you wear flats all the time and you just forget. I wonder if I'll be brave enough to wear them all day Saturday at Wizard World. We shall see.
