Witch boots

I'm back after a short hiatus. It kind of looked like I was celebrating 1 year of blogging and then closing up shop. Sorry about that.

I hope everyone on the east coast is safe and not suffering too much under the wrath of the storm Sandy. I've lived through 1 hurricane (Juan) and 1 tropical storm (Igor) and I know how unpredictable and scary they can be. You really can't predict what they will do.

Since tomorrow is my favourite holiday, I thought I'd finally wear my "vintage" Fluevog swordfish boots. I posted these on the Fluevog Facebook page asking them if they could tell me anything else about them.

 I think these look like boots a witch (as in cartoon/caricatureish) would wear. Like Witchy poo from H.R. Pufnstuf.

 Damn those Kroft brothers must have been on some very very bad hallucinogenic drugs.

Cardigan: Club Monaco (worn numerous times)
Top: Anthropologie
Skirt: Krista Larsen (last worn here)
Boots: Fluevog Swordfish ? via Etsy

Here's a better look at the top. I like that it's plain but has gathers which give some visual interest. Or something like that.

Happy Halloween!
