Ugly Boots: ( Really Ugly!)


Ankle Boots Open Toe

Ankle Boot Open Toe

Sandal Boot ! ( Argh!)

Summer Boots




Get On Your Boots

Bono / The Edge

The future needs a big kiss
Winds blow with a twist
Never seen a moon like this
Can you see it too?

Night's falling everywhere
Rockets at the fun fair
Satan loves a bomb scare
But he won’t scare you

Hey, sexy boots
Get on your boots, yeah

You free me from the dark dream
Candy floss ice cream
All our kids are screaming
But the ghosts aren’t real

Here’s where we gotta be
Love and community
Laughter is eternity
If joy is real

You don’t know how beautiful
You don’t know how beautiful you are
You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you?
You don’t know how beautiful you are

That’s someone’s stuff they’re blowing up
We’re into growing up
Women of the future
Hold the big revelations

I got a submarine
You got gasoline
I don’t want to talk about wars between nations

Not right now

Hey sexy boots...
Get on your boots, yeah
Not right now
Bossy boots

You don’t know how beautiful
You don’t know how beautiful you are
You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you?
You don’t know how beautiful you are

Sexy boots
I don’t want to talk about the wars between the nations
Sexy boots, yeah

Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Let me in the sound

Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound, now
God, I’m going down
I don’t wanna drown now
Meet me in the sound

Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Meet me in the sound

Get on your boots
Get on your boots

I Love Mary Jane Shoes

Mary Jane (shoe)

Mary Jane is an American term (formerly trademarked) for a kind of strap shoe or sandal that typically has low heels, broad and rounded closed toes, and a single-buckle strap across the instep and/or around the ankle. They are traditionally made of black patent leather, although some current incarnations can be in a wide array of colors and leathers.


Traditionally Mary Janes are a variety of shoe worn mainly by young girls. In modern times they are worn by women of all ages. Mary Janes are typically considered formal for girls and informal when worn by women.

 Etymology

Mary Jane was a character created by Richard Outcault for his comic strip, Buster Brown, which was first published in 1902.

She was the sister of the title character, Buster Brown.
In 1904, Outcault traveled to the St. Louis World's Fair and sold licenses to up to 200 companies to use the Buster Brown characters to advertise their products. Among them was the Brown Shoe Company, who later hired actors to tour the country, performing as the Buster Brown characters in theaters and stores. This strategy helped the Brown Shoe Company become the most prominently associated brand with the Buster Brown characters. The style of shoe both Buster Brown and Mary Jane wore came to be known by her name, Mary Jane.

 Current style

While the classic Mary Jane still retains its wide popularity and appeal, today's more stylish Mary Janes tend to be platform styles, with half-inch to one-inch soles and three- to five-inch "chunky heels", often with exaggerated grommets or buckles.


 These styles were especially popular in the United States in the late 1990s and early 2000s, within punk rock, psychobilly, and goth subcultures.




Many times the wearers would accent the look with knee-high knit socks in dark-colored stripes or patterns and/or some form of hosiery (stockings/pantyhose), and often complete the look with a plaid, pleated schoolgirl-style skirt.

Mary Janes are a popular part of kinderwhore and Lolita fashion.



A pump with a strap across the instep may be referred to as a "Mary Jane pump", although it does not have the low heels or wide toe of the original Mary Jane (and a pump is generally strapless by definition).

In popular culture

In the Saw horror-film series, Billy the Puppet wears a pair of red Mary Janes.

 The fictional character Alice, from the books Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, wears a pair of black Mary Janes in John Tenniel's illustrations;


Alice also wears Black Mary Janes in the 1951 Walt Disney's Alice in Wonderland.


Stacy Ferguson AKA Fergie has an ode to these soles on her debut solo album, The Dutchess.


Velma Dinkley in the Scooby-Doo animated series usually wears a pair of Mary Janes, as well as Eleanor of the Chipettes.

When i wear - my Mary Jane´s shoes
I can escape - from a blues
The whole world seems a little bit brighter, brighter
My heavy steps get a little bit lighter, lighter
Wooh my mary jane´s (4x)
When i wear - my Mary Jane´s shoes
Just like a child - under bruise
My heart and my soul - they feel like i´m seven
But from my head to my toels
It´s like i´m in heaven, heaven
Wooh my Mary Jane´s (4x)
When i wear Mary Jane´s shoes
I enjoy to spin - the ones and toes
Music has another dimension
And i can dance with a diferent perception
Wooh my Mary Jane´s (4x)
when I step into my shoes, make a lady wanna, hay
feeling high, feeling low caught up in a purple, hay
everything is beautiful mother f***** feeling great
when I step in to my shoes, make a lady wanna go crazy,
wanna go crazy, wanna go crazy, wanna go crazy, oh now
wooh my mary janes, wooh my mary janes, wooh my mary janes,
wooh my mary janes, wooh my mary janes

Shoes For Summer

I know. I know. I keep talking about summer but how can I not? Summer is the season of my birth, (Go Summer babies!) and its also the second best time of the year. Behind Christmas, of course. :) I'm so excited for summer that did some shopping. Here's a quick look at a few of the things I picked up.

My favorite inexpensive picks. All of these shoes are under $20. Some of them you can own at the super low price of $13.49.What do you think? Of the shoes and their price.



The color is adorable. Surpsingly I don't own any pink sandals. I'm not a very big pink fan. I don't know why. I mean I think it can be pretty--it can also be gaudy--but I'm not the girl who's room is covered in pink. Do you find that surprising? Comment below. But I love the color of these shoes. I think I already said that but its true! :)


Flats are perfect for summer. :) I don't normally wear heels--because where I live it rains almost everyday. I mean if we go a whole week without rain, its almost newsworthy. I'm not an everyday heel girl but I love how heels make my legs look. I have these gorgeous platform faux crocodile skin pumps. Gosh. I love those things. :) But back to the shoes, I love the bead detailing. It's that perfect spark of flash that pumps up the volume.


A black and brown flat. Its classic. I have a beautiful pair that I bought a couple years ago but a few years can put a lot of wear and tear on a pair of shoes. :) Even though I don't love the intense galdiator look--you know the one with the straps that reach a girl's knees--I love the echoes of gladiator inspiration. It slightly modernizes an old classic. Every girl needs a basic sandal for summer!
Turquoise. And white. I'm not quite sure what I'd wear these with. Maybe some jeans and a simple tee. Hmmm...what do you think? What outfit would not be complet with these unique, showstoppers? I'm in love with them. I have nothing in my closet that looks anything like this. That's why I think I like it so much. :)


Oh! I'm so excited. I was watching Glee on the FOX website and I finally saw the episode called Acafellas. :) It was the funniest Glee episode I think I've ever seen. There's something extremely funny about four grown men practicing acapella hip-hop in Mr. Schuster's living room.

I was a little late jumping on the Glee bandwagon and so I missed a lot of the earlier episodes. So I was thrilled when I realized I could catch up! :D I just love Glee in general. Are you a Gleek? Comment below!

Hail Caesar!

See:The Wedding Singer
OMG! This is a classic. :) Who doesn't love it when Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore team up? 50 First Dates was hilarious but The Wedding Singer has to be my favorite. I absolutely love the part at the end when Robbie sings to Julia. Sigh. If only a guy would chase after me to Las Vegas. :) And although I wasn't born in the 80's its nice to see a quick overview of the pop culture of the time. Its like entertainment and education mixed into one.

Read:Julius Caesar
I read this last year in English but I was reminded how much I like Shakespeare when we started reading A Midsummer Night's Dream. We haven't made it all the way through AMND yet I still perfer Julius Caesar. A lot more action and drama. Its like Mean Girls but in Roman times and without the some-what happy ending. :) I'm not going to lie and say that the language isn't complicated--because it is--but I think if you're up for a challenge, you'll enjoy this.

Watch:Drop Dead Diva
Eeek! I'm obsessed with this show. Its Matlock mixed with The Hills and a small dash of Ghost Whisperer. Sounds fun, huh? But honestly I'm glued to the TV when it airs. Its season premiere aired just recently and so its the perfect time to jump into the show. I am so glad that TV channels have started to pump up their summer seasons. I remember when the only thing on during the summer were re-runs. :) Oooh, doesn't Pretty Little Liars look like its going to be a great show? Random thoguht.

Wear:Soda Carlet Flats in White
Summer is almost upon us and if you're looking for inexpensive, yet completely chic shoes, please head over to CutesyGirl.com. I am completely serious. Their shoe selection is huge and they have all these amazing shoes in so many colors. :) And if you don't believe me head on over. You won't be disappointed. But the shoes pictured above are perfect for summer. The Carlet Flats will go with any summer dress and yet look effortless when thrown on with a pair of jeans and a tee. Plus, isn't the golden detailing just stunning?
