We Wear: "These boots are too metal for you"

- quote by Lorenz. He really dislikes these boots and doesn't get why I like them so much. I was in need, in desperate need of some biker boots. But my standards were high and the biker boots crossing my path did not meet up to them. I do not have the easiest figure for boots: they tend to make me really short when the calf does not rise high enough, I didn't want the nose to point upward are be too round and I didn't want boots that would be too plain nor too much (you wouldn't believe the amount of hideous cowboy boots that came along this long long search). And then these Rebecca Minkoff boots passed along during my search with only one downside: my size was no longer available. Now that's a downside you cannot ignore. To cheer myself up I ordered another pair that met up with my standards, was disappointed when they arrived, returned them (thank God for that) and started wining to my boyfriend that the perfect pair of biker boots was out of reach and that life wasn't fair. I wanted to show them to him when suddenly...MY SIZE WAS BACK YO! So that's exactly what I yelled at him before I clicked them to my basket and wallowed myself in happiness and pink clouds.

And they do not disappoint. I love every inch of these boots and I'm sure I'll get a lot of wear out of them. I also promise to make an outfit with them and to shoot that outfit in daylight instead of underneath a street lantern.

First of all: these pictures were taken on the last day of the holidays, in other words: I had to go back to work the next day. You may not know this yet, but I suffer from the holidayblues quit a bit. So that's why I'm not wearing my happy face (it's dusty, in the back of my closet somewhere). This can only mean I am in need of spring or that I need to eat more mushrooms. Shrooms do consist a lot of vitamin D, but they don't make you tan.

The cloud I'm wearing (I refer to my coat as "the cloud", I have been called a sheep, but I prefer cloud) does cheer me up though. It's so damn soft. I spotted this cloudy gem at the Topshop section of Zalando and I could almost feel the softness through my computer. I have to admit that I clicked it home while thinking that if it would not live up to my expectations, I could always send it back for free. That's the beauty of Zalando! Or is it the poison? Well, beauty is treacherous I suppose.

Another new, handy and much needed addition in my life is this bag I'm carrying. It's not just a retro satchel, it is a padded camera bag with enough room to hold my DSLR, extra lens and other necessities but not too big to be carrying too much stuff with you. When you want to use the satchel as just a satchel, you can remove the padded area as a whole and there you go. I found this beauty on Etsy and I can assure you it is the best purchase if you want a nice looking camera bag that isn't too bulky.
