I have been searching for the perfect
pair of black boots for a really long
time
and I think I finally found them in fees
they're from forever 21 but they're
genuine leather and they seem to be
really good quality so hopefully they'll
last me a long time they're like a kind
of heeled Chelsea boot design and they
seem quite durable the only problem is
that the four-inch heel is a bit high
for me right now but I think I just need
to get more practice walking in heels
and hopefully I'll be able to wear them
with more confidence these boots I've
owned for just over a year but only
recently I've really been starting to
get a lot of use out of them I feel like
when I first bought them they weren't
really in style but now I've been seeing
a lot more of this like lace-up peep toe
type of thing going on I think these
ones are a really good height they're
like two and a half inches so they're
still really comfortable to walk around
school and I feel comfortable walking
down hills and stuff but it still gives
me some extra height recently I started
layering different socks underneath
these and playing around with that as
you guys might have seen in some of my
previous videos and yeah I'm really
enjoying it I think that looks really
cute and quirky these boots have been
through pretty much everything with me I
bought them two years ago on Black
Friday and I pretty much wore them every
day that entire winter but now they're
getting kind of worn out you can see
there's like a chip on the heel and they
look kind of weird and crumpled so I am
looking for a replacement I remember
these were the first heels that I ever
wore to school and I felt so
self-conscious wearing them even though
there were only like one and a half
inches tall everybody was gonna make fun
of me and think I was really weird
but yeah it was fine I've been wearing
heels ever since these boots really are
my most expensive pair but I suppose
they are really practical and
comfortable these are my go to shoes
when I'm traveling and doing some
sightseeing when I'm at the airport or
when I'm doing like a scene in theater
where I need to move around a lot
basically any time I want to be grounded
and mobile but still cute to be honest I
bought these mostly just because they
were super on sale unfortunately they're
a little bit small for me so I haven't
gotten that much wear out of them but I
still think it's a really nice color so
I thought it was worth showing
these boots were such a steal I found
him in one of those sale bins at forever
21 that normally just has really trashy
stuff in it but luckily the
over-the-knee boot trend keeps coming
back so I've been able to get a lot of
wear out of them and they're actually
really comfortable I walked across the
entire Golden Gate Bridge and back in
these so I've definitely got my money's
worth these shoes have pretty much
everything I could hope for in a flat
window check ankle strap check door say
cut up check leopard print hell yes
but seriously I absolutely adore these
shoes I feel like they look kind of like
j.crew but they were a hell of a lot
cheaper they were a little bit small at
first by managed to break them in so
there are at least tolerably comfortable
I feel like they really make a statement
and add a finishing touch to any outfit
these shoes are the oldest pair I own I
remember I bought them the summer going
into ninth grade so four years ago right
after I hit a growth spurt and I outgrew
all of my shoes I know the round toe
ballet flats and the cap toe aren't
really in right now but these are super
comfortable so I'm gonna hang on to them
these shoes are a recent purchase as
well they're from H&M so they're pretty
trash quality but I'm enjoying them for
the couple months or so that they'll
last and I might have to buy myself a
proper pair of shoes that look like this
once these were out I like that the
little loafer shape cutout at the front
gives just like the perfect amount of
toe cleavage I guess that's a thing and
I like that they have the look of
loafers without being too masculine or
structured
he's on my lowest pair of heels slash
wedges they're just over an inch so they
are still quite comfortable to walk in I
sometimes have trouble wearing flat
sandals because I think they make my
feet look kind of awkward and chunky but
these ones with the heel and the lace-up
look really elegant these wedges I'm not
too sure of the price of because I
inherited them from my sister no she
didn't die she just outgrew them my
sister wore these to her graduation so
I'm considering wearing them as well I
think they have a cool 70s vibe and the
corkboard wedge is pretty lightweight so
hopefully it will reduce my stumbling
these were the first like proper court
heeled shoes that I bought I got them
super cheap at a thrift store they were
such a steal the plaid print kind of
reminds me of like a librarian but I'm
kind of into it and I've gotten a lot of
use out of these at conferences and
interviews and stuff like that one time
at a conference I climbed up the fire
escape to our hotel on the fourteenth
floor because I didn't want to take the
overcrowded elevators and my feet
survived although I really just should
have taken off my shoes it would have
been a lot easier
I bought these heels for my sophomore
homecoming so that was two years ago and
I remember a lot of bloggers we're
wearing shoes that were similar to this
but I found these pretty cheap I
especially like the heel cutout because
it's kind of unexpected even though I
bought these quite a while ago I'm still
wearing them to dances and events today
so they were definitely a good purchase
these heels are my absolute favorite I
think they look so chic and they look
kind of like 50s or 60s they're actually
a super expensive pair from j.crew that
I managed to thrift while I was in San
Francisco so I'm super happy about that
because I love j.crew but everything
they have is so expensive these are
probably my high-quality pair of shoes
even though the soles are super scuffed
up now from me walking around on the
pavement in Boston these are my favorite
pair of sneakers they look a lot like
super gos if you guys know what those
are but I got them from American Eagle
for super cheap and I think these are
actually on their website right now for
like seven dollars they may not be in
this color though but I'll link it in
the description down below I think this
is like the perfect amount of platform
it gives you some height and that looks
really trendy without making your feet
look like giant clown feet these again
are knockoffs from American Eagle
I got on sale they look a lot like those
steve madden salons that were big like a
year ago these are really comfortable
and a nice kind of dressier alternative
to just a regular sneaker but I'm not
sure that they're really my style so I
haven't worn them that much these are my
vans and let me tell you they are super
super cushy the only problem is that I
have to wear those tiny ballerina
no-show socks with them which can be
kind of annoying because they tend to
slip off but other than that I think
they gave a cute 50s vibe to any outfit
and they're super comfortable of course
I had to include some converse in my
shoe collection these are just some
classic low tops I really like the gray
because it's a lot easier to keep clean
looking then the white converse that are
really in right now but it's not quite
as harsh to black that being said these
are pretty beat-up from three or four
years worth of use Here I am doing the
dumbest walk ever because I'm trying to
look sporty in my one pair of proper
running sneakers
I don't really run as you can probably
tell by how I jogged into frame earlier
but I bought these for the Naval Academy
Summer Seminar in which I ran through a
bunch of water and mud in 90 degree
weather but that's a story for another
time
here's a quick bonus round because I
didn't really know which category to put
these shoes in and also I bought them
after I had filmed the rest in this
video already anyways I really did save
the best for last year these are by far
my favorite shoes I have right now it
only shoes that I really actively
pursued and that's probably not the
right word that sounds like I'm pursuing
a guy or something but seriously I saw
these on the models on forever clean
ones website my frustration I couldn't
find them anywhere on the forever 21
site so I asked somebody on YouTube
where they came from and I finally found
the ones are up but then they were sold
out so and I had to buy them marked up
on eBay which was kind of a hassle but
it was 100% worth it it's not like I
have any other shoes is it
