"I found a new way c'mon don't amuse me"

These boots have been in my dreams since this June 2007 Vogue spread with Keira Knightley, so much so that I actually screamed when I found my $3 vintage black version a few months back, even though they are about three sizes too big.

But now, thanks to eBay, the brown Frye Engineers that Keira also fell for are a freaking reality. For fifty bucks. I'm not kidding. AND THESE ACTUALLY FIT DAMMNIT.

So I'm breaking them in and will post some epic pics soon, but for now it's back to the school work and being uncreative in ink stains, sweatshirts and coffee spills.

shut UP right now with this post.

i literally have that whole spread tacked onto my wall. i've been in love for it forever. the one were she's at the typewriter and the shot at the plane are my two faves. plus keira is my all-time style icon.

i am so jealous of your bootfind. if they are a size 8.5 i expect them in the mail when you get sick of them.
