My first pair of irregular choice shoes
they were the most I'd ever spent on a pair of shoes, but it was totally worth it.

Which ones are they?
My doc martens are the most I've ever spent on a pair of shoes. Also totally worth it. They're like my babies.

What were they like?
Mine are the really chunky dark green ones with wide black ribbons for laces. These ones: www1.schuh.co.uk/black-dr-martens-triumph-1914-boot/1407187020/

Ah yeah, I remember. Just looking at those makes me happy.

I spent over a ton on my boots
but it was worth it.

You have to spend a lot of money on shoes
To get good quality, especially boots. Never get fake leather!

Agreed. But then I also think fake fur is shit too.

but real fur is horrible!
in fact, all fur is horrible, unless you can pull it off like Glenn Close.

I have a parka
with raccoon fur trim on the hood. It's fucking lovely. I once got on the tube wearing, only to find that an animal rights march had entirely filled the carriage. Oops.

real raccoon fur?
I don't like you very much right now Mr Monty.

Unless you have the matching eye mask so you actually look like a raccoon.

Fake leather shoes are more expensive than real leather (for comparable quality shoes)
See www.vegetarian-shoes.co.uk if you don't believe me/give a toss.

i do love irregular choice shoes. my sister has got herself a pair to wear when she's my bridesmaid this summer - her sole (ha) condition for being bridesmaid was the shoes.

I'd invite you to mine
but I don't actually know you. Sorry.
(Bazongaloid, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:06, Reply)

It's ok
I might just buy them in your honour, get all dressed up and get really drunk at home.

www1.schuh.co.uk/black-and-blue-irregular-choice-cortesan-floral-bar-court/1106013850/
with a blue dress. she's going to bridesmaid for other sister next year and already has her eye on another pair of IC shoes!

prettiness!
Somehow, adverts for Irregular Choice are chasing me around the internet, whichever site I go on they're there, taunting me.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:10, Reply)

me too!
I've got a pair which have see through heels and swans painted on the sides. I can't walk in them for long, but I can stare adoringly at them for hours.
( ascorbate, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:15, Reply)

they sound beautiful!
I have my ICs on the top shelf of my shoe rack so that people can see them when they walk past and adore them.

I think I've already shown everyone the Irregular Choice witchy cat boots I want,
And the Bordello platforms, so next stop, Iron Fist. *drools*

I have the purple ones of them :D
and the cupcake ones. I'm such a shoe whore.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:21, Reply)

*jealousy*
I'm only just getting into heels, so I don't have very many.
I do however have an extensive collection of boots and converse.

you're such a student.

:D
I bought myself a new pair of BRIGHT BLUE converse just last week.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:26, Reply)

I want the purple foldy over ones
I had a pair of black low tops but I think I lost them at a festival, so now I have none, sob. I picked up some totally sweet DCs in the Office closing down sale for £20 though
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:28, Reply)

With the purple check on the inside?
I've 2 pairs of fold over ones, one turquoise and one black suede with black and white tweed on the inside.

Losing them is bad times, everyone should have at least one pair.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:36, Reply)

yeah them's the ones!
I don't like really like high tops though, they make me look clown-feety
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Mon 10 May 2010, 14:44, Reply)

They're vair nice.
That is the risk you run with converse. Luckily, I only have little size 5s, so I can just about get away with it.
