So it all began in Hong Kong. While my friend J and I perused the eccentric and awesome wares at Joyce, I came across a pair of Rick Owens S/S 2009 Foldover boots and was immediately struck dumb. They. were. everything. I've. ever. dreamed. of. and. more. If it weren't for the price (about $1,250), I'd be clodding all over town right now in these babies.
This kind of shopping experience, where I fall so hard for a single item, happens so rarely that it required some reflection. J and I tried to peg our individual styles down to a few designers, and I had some definite favorites named right off the bat. So for my pleasure just as much as yours (not like you really care), behold my five favorite designers whose designs I would actually wear:

Hi! i was wondering whether you tried the Rick Owens Fold over boots on? Im usually a 37.5 Italian and I am wondering whether they run small, large or true to size? Thanks! Nelly
Hi Nelly - Thanks for the comment. You can be sure that I tried on those babies. I'm a 40 however, and did think that they ran a tad small. I would have considered a 41 if they had had them. For you, I would go 38 to be safe...but it's always good to have an exchange policy.
