Saving For

I decided that this summer I have a few important things to do. Some are personal, some are task-oriented (i.e. needlepoint a belt--that includes learning how to needlepoint...), and others are just random (start looking at suits). They all have different goals but are not too difficult and can be done over the course of the summer. I also recently decided that I'm going to buy a good pair of cow(girl)boy boots. I've done a lot of research on brands, lifetime, what you should spend on them, etc. and I've come to a conclusion. Not only that, my conclusion is on sale!

Frye, Billy Pull-On in Brown

I found these on Amazon and I have the Amazon Prime membership so I'll save more than $70 AND get free shipping. They're still pricey but all the reviews say that no other boots compare to Frye. Reviewers say that they've had theirs for years with little wear and tear and since I'm in the South, I've decided I need to finally get a pair. One user even said, "Spectacularly well made boots, even Amazon's price is incredible given the quality and design." Dear lady, you sold me. Also, the Billy boot isn't too high of a heel and comes in what I'd say is the ideal boot brown. Overall everyone is saying to go up a 1/2 size (hmm...an 11 will be hard to track down, but Amazon still has it!) and I was lucky to find an Amazon vendor who has my size AND the good deal! 

If you haven't heard of Amazon Prime and you're a college student, GO. SIGN. UP. It's free if you have a university email address (otherwise it's $75 for normal people) and gives you high return on textbook sell back, better deals on textbooks, free shipping more often than not and random good deals (just like my future boots). 

Anyone have these boots? Do you love them? Any good tips/tricks for breaking them in?
