I think it's the expense that irritates me. Seems extravagant. I just shop at thrift stores.

I'll stop ranting now.

I spend a ridiculous amount of money on boots and shoes. Other people buy gadgets and cars.

Never, EVER apologize for buying footwear!

(unless it's flip-flops or Crocs! )

I have over 300 pairs of shoes.

I want a leopard print scarf too. I've been looking for one, but not found one I like yet.

I also need a nice pair of calf-length boots. I trashed last years ones when I used them for a fancy dress outfit.

I must get a pair of leather gloves.

Thats's all I can think of for now.

Isn't that projecting a bit much? Who's to say that with outrageously expensive boots and the people who buy them, that they don't already donate money to the charities or causes of their choice? Seems like an unfair presumption, on top of the idea that every fashion piece is not for everybody, and people should be free to wear what makes them happy.

I'm wearing these today which have zippers on the back like the ones on the right in your pic.

Too much?

I've been looking for a nice pair of leopard-print shoes that don't look cheesy/Peg Bundy.

Not at all, they're killer!

I also like them better because it seems you don't have to work with the laces, just the zippers on the back (a big seller for me )

I like your shoes!

I've just seen so many (and tried some of them on) that look cheap or unnatural, like "what animal is this supposed to be?"

Peg Bundy was a character on the TV show "Married with Children". She wore a lot of leopard prints.

Oh! I'm gonna use that term from now on.

I'm not usually an animal-print person, but there's a lot of it about at the mo and some of it is really nice.

I never set out to get my shoes... I just tried them on and had to have them (with a little gentle persuasion from a friend who was with me). It was majorly hard to find a bag to match. There is a LOT of Peg Bundy stuff out there.

I really want a leopard print scarf:

Over the knee socks:

Thigh high boots:

And so much more....

What are your fall must haves?

I'll take all 3 ladies. I'd say they are the must haves for the fall.

Oh, so that's why it didn't hit home when I was joking about an interior decoration client who was all about leopard skin and porcelain cats... You actually like leopard skin! Sorry, lol.

I recently bought a sofabed so that I could have the small room in my apartment as a cozy library / guest room. It was incredibly hard to find a stylish looking sofa-bed though. Almost every single one was super tacky in one way or another. But then finally I came across this one (but in a darker gray colour):

It folds out into a pretty decent-sized bed that's actually very comfortable. And even more importantly; the "sofa mode" is comfy too.

Leopard skin looks great, no matter if it's outfit or interior

It looks good on a leopard, I'll give you that.

The couch in my living room that can also be used as a bed (I never used it for that yet though) is stylish . You'd probably call it tacky though . But I agree that there are many sofa beds that are just ugly.

I probably owned more animal print clothes in my life than other people own clothes in their whole lives . And I still love to wear them . Not every day, that would be boring, but I always loved them still I was a girl in primary school and still do.

This one is really cute . If it would fit in my apartment colourwise I'd buy it . Did you ever see a photo of my living room ?

No, but I bet you need signs that say "Please Do Not Attempt To Feed The Furniture", lol.

In small doses dude, small doses.

I bought some of my must haves yesterday, I'll take a pic and post!

And I LOVE it like that .

I found the scarf, which then led to the shoes, which then led to the jacket. Then I forced myself to leave because as you can see, it's a dangerous snowball...

I found some thigh high boots too, but they were out of black, only had red left.
