Acne Studios Pistol Boots

Merry Christmas to all my readers; I hope you are having a well-deserved rest before the new year beings. I wanted to share my newest addition to my fast-growing collection of ankle boots. I don't know why, but lately I have just fallen in love with the style and look of them. Ankle boots can dress down a fancy outfit and dress up a sloppy one.

 This pair was my main Christmas present from my parents and I'm so grateful for them. I ordered them from ssense on sale. Only thing is I got them the day after Christmas because of all the trouble UPS and FedEx had before the holidays-- no worries though. 

I chose this light blueish-grey color because it stood out to me and I think I could pair a lot of black clothes with it (hehe). The almost pastel color of them will be an easy transition into spring. I just have to be extra careful with them because of the suede material. 

Any good recommendations for a suede protectant/cleaner?

Double Breasted = Sea Captain. Right?

"Ahoy Mateys!" Is the phrase my jacket would say right? No? Well, I didn't see a sea captain look when I bought this jacket, but today a classmate kindly pointed that out. And the clicking of my heeled boots- well obviously that says I'm a teacher to another classmate. "Get back to class!"

I don't try to dress up as a sea captain or a teacher, it just happens. I put together an outfit on the basis that I like how it looks. I don't do it to impress people or shock them. So If I'm doing it for myself, why do I always get comments?

"Excuse me, who asked for your opinion?" Always runs through my mind when a comment is said about my outfit. It's not that the person meant to be hurtful or embarrass me, but it always seems to put me on edge. I guess all the bullies in middle school taught me to always be on my guard.

Comments about my outfits are said a lot to me, not in a nice way either: "In that outfit, you look like a (insert rude noun)." Hey, I wasn't going for that look, but thanks anyways. Maybe I'm too sensitive, but when it's said daily I'm going to get a bit sassy.

Next time try to look at me without comparing me. I appreciate compliments, so take a tip from these olive Theory trousers (which compliment my hair color nicely).  I'm just a chick in a double breasted jacket with "clickety- clack" booties, that's all.
