What is it with me and Prada?!? And why haven't I learned to filter better on Nordies?

These would fit with my style goals- ladylike but with a dose of modern. They fit my dominant seasons, so would get a lot fo wear. And they would look great with my winter dresses.

I hope I can find something similar at half to a third of the price! Devil wears Prada indeed!

Those are gorgeous but simple enough that you can find something similar!

Remind me NOT to go shoe shopping with you Thistle...I suspect you would be a very bad influence. Just kidding of course, you have I impeccable taste:). I adore the Chelsea Boot and they make my black flat pair look positively shabby

I showed them to DH and he asked me why I liked "elf" shoes so much. *sigh*. Better than the pilgrim comment I got on the last pair of Pradas I loved.

Both absolutely gorgeous. My DH doesn't get shoes either.

I love the modern simplicity of them too! I agree though, it should be easy to find something similar for a lot less.

Very nice. Here's hoping that they reflect styles that will be available at a variety of price points. I am drawn to the their simplicity.

Gorgeous. And while these certainly aren't the same, there are similar looks for less:

Those are gorgeous refined boots. You should be able to "get the look for less" , especially with black.

I love the second pair - I don't think they are elf shoes.

Look at SW boots, they have similar styles and the price is about a 1/3 of Prada with great quality.

If I could have my dream boot, it would have the Prada aesthetic with Aquatalia construction to be waterproof and have the grippy sole. As long as I am going for broke, it would also have the Ugg lining to keep my feet warm and comfy.

Should those exist, they would be worth blowing my clothing budget for.
