They are gorgeous -- almost museum pieces. But...maybe looking at them now and then on Pinterest will satisfy your lust. You know, like looking at a glorious Picasso, Cezanne or Warhol. Or Kandinsky. Or Bonnard. Or Miro. Yep, I've got the lust myself!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806460 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:58:19 +0000 Thistle 806460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Caro. A couple of pairs of sitting shoes can be fun, but sounds like you already have more than enough.</p> <p>All of your other reasons are completely valid and I think would be deal breakers. I would hold out and see what the spring collections bring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806453 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:51:59 +0000 Caro in Oz 806453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Save your money to spend on things that you love &amp; wear often, not things that cause you frustration or pain. There are so many fantastic things out there &amp; lots of them are comfortable too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806447 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:42:14 +0000 rae 806447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm. Gold/copper puffy paint on some flat boots? They ARE cool, but the reasons you mentioned seem like real deal breakers. Hopefully the stores will continue to churn out more fun flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806444 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:39:14 +0000 Jjsloane 806444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are totally cool and very YOU, but completely impractical (I'm a mom so I have to say this) pricewize and for your back. There must be something similar that would allow you to wear them while walking??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806440 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:36:08 +0000 annagybe 806440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can wear heels for sitting events, like dinner or the opera. Anything with extended walking or standing my back starts to hurt. Even my beloved Isabel Marant wedge sneakers are pushing it at times. I have a closet full of sitting shoes.</p> <p>ETA I did get paged once, but they were looking for a different department. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806439 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:36:00 +0000 lyn* 806439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:o Most amazing part of this post = not even being paged once!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806435 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:33:30 +0000 Anonymous 806435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, they were fun to visit. Are you off heels now forever, they are really tall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806432 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:31:45 +0000 Deborah 806432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firstly thanks for the link to the blog... love it.. should be working... but clearly I am not!</p> <p>Secondly they are fabulous boots! I am not going to advise one way or the other:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-i-torture-myself-like-this-1#post-806427 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:27:08 +0000 annagybe 806427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise (Cocolion) turned me on to this blogger and I fell in love with these boots.</p> <p><a href="http://www.afterdrk.com/lisbon-2/" rel="nofollow">http://www.afterdrk.com/lisbon-2/</a></p> <p>She even said they were comfortable.</p> <p>After lots of googling I found them in my theoretical size here<br /> <a href="http://www.brownsfashion.com/Product/Women/Women/Gifts/Most_Wanted/Merli_Studded_Suede_Boots/Product.aspx?p=670600#" rel="nofollow">http://www.brownsfashion.com/P.....?p=670600#</a></p> <p>In my defense, I've been stuck at home with pager and haven't been called in once today or last night.</p> <p>One, they're very expensive. Two, they have a four inch heel. Three, it's pretty risky to order from overseas. But they're so freaking cool.<br /> I've pinned them to my pinterest page, so I can at least visit them. </p>
