Claimed! Miss Sixty Adrian Boots

I love buying things out of season. Nothing makes me happier for the upcoming weather than picking up something warm in the cold months and cold in the warm ones. Well ok, there is one other thing that is as wonderful: the fact that the particular item is usually over 50% off its original price!

So, you can only imagine my sheer, unadulterated joy when I picked up these babies at a sample sale a few weeks ago:



I have long been in need of a pair of big, black boots. These Miss Sixty Adrian boots are simply amazing, and everything I was coveting. The leather is the softest stuff I have ever encountered, and they are super tall and super comfy. My wallet would have been hurting something awful picking them up at their retail price, but I managed to snatch these up for a song.



My particular favorite part about these boots is the detailing around the ankle. I love the straps, buckles, but especially the charm that hangs from one of the shoes. It is such a cute and sweet little detail, and even makes a chiming click when I walk about. I actually have become rather inspired with the idea charms on boots: perhaps I will decorate the entire pair with little gold and silver charms along the straps. You will then hear me coming from a mile away.



I can barely wait until the weather cools down so I can start stomping around in these beauts. I am a summer child, but there's nothing like a good pair of boots to help heal that hurt round end of the season.

Do you know where I can get a pair? I have been wanting these boots since I first saw them at Nordstrom last winter! I wasn't thrilled with the original price. Any help appreciated!

Thanks!

Hey Sarah,

I picked these up at a sample sale several months ago. I go by that sale place often, and i am fairly certain they have sold out on these :(

i would wager ebay is your best bet at this point, and i think there may be a few places online (like Revolve) that might still have them at retail - though i understand your aversion to their full price.

Sorry I can't be more helpful!

Nordstrom has them, in black only. I have seen them online in brown too. They will set you back $349. I believe you can possibly get them at Nordstrom.com also...(they probably qualify for free shipping at least!)
