thigh high boots : next big trend or best way to start a new career?

boots that go well above and beyond the knee are all over the runways, style blogs, and fashion websites this season. yet i don't know if i can jump on this trend or not. i tried to last fall and bought myself a nice pair of fake leather ones off of ebay but sadly sold them to a consignment shop. i took this action because i couldn't find anything to wear with them that wouldn't make a passerby stop and ask "how much?" i'm all for taking fashion risks (i'm a strong supporter of leggings as pants for example), but this fashion trend might just be too risque for me.

ashish for topshop leopard wedges

these shoes are simply to die for. they look impossible to walk in which makes me want them even more. can't find them anywhere though, pretty sure they sold out in august. they're 140 gbp, which is somewhere around $230.

ahh perfection. simple yet with a huge wedge that makes my heart go a-flutter. i literally dreamed about these babies last night. just wish they didn't have a $325 price tag. oh well, there's always nordstrom's semi annual sale... and ebay :)

b-b-b-butterface

lady gaga has a frikken' amazing body. definitely was wishing i had some sort of physique close to it while watching her vma performance. it's not too muscular but just toned enough.

and even though she got a lot of lip for her outfits i really liked her red lace number (when her face was showing).

now if only that damn butterface video would get out of my head...
