Cop or Nah?: Legging Boots

415858_in_pp

 

Tamara Mellon is getting innovative by combining leggings, leather, and boots together. This is the “legging boot”; the idea was inspired by the thigh high boot. Mellon’s idea was to give the look of a thigh boot without the gap. So you can wear a long top or dress over it to give that look. They will cost you a smooth $1,995 if you are interested. I like the idea, however I like the sexy gap of skin between the boot and whatever you wear it with. I also like the idea. of this all in one idea. I wonder if other designers will swag jack the idea. Thoughts?

5 Luxury Items I’m Crying In A Corner For…….

As much as I love a cheap Wal-Mart or Target item, I love Net-A-Porter and stores of the like. However, I live in California(cost of living is disrespectful) and grad student (equally disrespectful). So dropping copious amounts of money on some Chanel boots isn’t in the cards for me (FOR NOW). A girl can dream (or stop eating out so much and buying Hennessy on the weekend) Here are the five items that I have starry eyes for this week.
