Luxe For Less: Acne-esque Pistol Boots



Okay, I know, these boots are "so last season" but when you're addicted, it doesn't matter if they're "in" or not, just as long as you can make them "look" in :D
I already own a pair of ankle boots which look like this from Topshop called AMBUSH, actually, in fact I think they're identical but...
THESE HAVE STUDS, it's a game changer!

I have started to get into the habit of buying two of everything I love, especially shoes because once it's gone, it's really gone (sometimes) and I like to have the option to continue wearing the same style/shape/colour. I bought a pair of desert boots from Topshop and then in the sale I bought THE SAME PAIR, thinking that when the first pair becomes old and worn out I can do some DIY like spray paint/stud/glitter them as an experiment, it's like giving the shoes one last hurrah before I have to say farewell because they're beyond repair. 

Do you do that? 
Or am I just wasting money because I am literally duping my closet? 

Buy here.

P.S. My exams start tomorrow so I'm going to be rubbish at keeping you updated. But I will aim to at least post once every alternate day! 

P.P.S. To keep you entertained for a bit longer, I found out that shopbop has a pinterest account! Have a gander, it's kinda cool.

  1. Oooh, I'm tempted to do this whenever I find something I really love. Haha, if you can dupe your entire closet, then better for you!
    I just love these boots. They're amazing. The studs really step it up <3

  6. I always wish I had bought two pairs, once my one favourite pair of shoes get too worn and no shops carry them anymore
