Love It or Hate It: Mary Jane Boots

August 8th, 2007 Posted in Shoes

Here is an interesting piece of footwear that deserves a blog post of its own. I’m not sure what to make of it being that it seems confused whether it’s supposed to be mary janes, booties or both. I mean, why fix something when it ain’t broke? Why add a patch of suede to convert mary janes to boots? Or maybe they were last year’s mary janes reincarnated into boots? Call me confused! I have to admit that it does look cute to wear on a fun night out with your girl friends. Now, if only the heels were a little higher… Update: I think they would look better as platform wedges. Made By Elves Maryjane Boot $125 at Urban Outfitters.

      Although, I must admit, I like the bottie that Urban Outfitters has better than the taller style. But as long as we’re on the subject of pumps with a boot inserted, I like these even more:
