Last month, there I was, innocently posting inanities on my wall when up popped an ad featuring a cute pair of red boots. I clicked on it because - hey - they were darn cute.
But I didn't have any money at the time, so I just went on my merry way. But since I clicked that link... I was doomed. Everytime I logged onto facebook, they were there... in the side bar... taunting me. The red velvety material called to me, the black buttons gleamed like shiny little beacons, saying things like...
"Think of how good we'd look with your little red top and black mini-skirt."
"We're so festive, and Christmas is coming!"
"You don't have red boots.... you need red boots..."
"You deserve it..."
It took two weeks, but I finally caved and clicked the link again... just to give them another look...
...and they were on sale...
...and I could get free shipping...
...and they accepted paypal...
...and then I told myself, that my birthday was coming up...
...and I always buy myself a birthday present...
...so what if it's a month and a half early... the buttons were right, I totally deserve it.
They arrived this week.

Yes! for the shoes! They are so stylish. I hope you get to wear them in celebration (and shoe victory) this season.
I just commented on what a cardigan master you are, and I would love to see you whip up a red cardigan to rock with it.
Oh my goodness, they are SO CUTE!! Good purchase!
And that's how advertising works :)
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO baby! Those are some serious lookers!
I can see why you could not resist.
Spectacular!
That advertising thing drives me nuts because I am always looking at gross things for Daddio and then they pop up all over the place. Ick.
Stunning, I would love red boots too so I'd better not click anything!
They are awesome!! But I agree, I need to stop clicking links and finding myself mesmerized by goodies.
I'm not a big red fan ... but those are FABULOUS!!! OMG!
Those are super-cute! I would have done it, too. Are they comfortable to walk in? Who cares!
