I got a pair of combat boots! They're big and black, they go up to about the middle of my calf. They're a little too big, so I have to double up the sock with them, and they squeak when I walk, but I still absolutely LOVE them! The front of my thighs are sore from walking around in them for about 7 hours yesterday. For my style and cultural studies discussion, we were instructed to wear a garment or outfit that portrayed who were are or aren't. This task inspired me to get the boots, which I've been wanting for a couple of months. Anyways, I dressed up in a black pleated skirt to my knees, the boots, a shirt that said "Little Miss Bad", Nicole's spiked choker, a skull and crossbone necklace, a guitar zip up hoodie, and a belt with thin chains looped on it. It was actually really enjoyable to wear that outfit- i felt like it really fit me and my personality. I told my discussion that the outfit really demonstrated my musical tastes, but that it was a little more attention-grabbing than I like. Still, even though it was attention-getting, I think it portrayed more of me than I tend to outwardly display. I think that for once, people would have pegged my musical interests correctly based on my outward appearance instead of thinking I was into softer stuff. I love my boots, and I'm so glad that I got them!
