It's unusual to be peer-pressured by a parent into extravagant fashion expenditures, but my dad kind of talked me into buying this pair of $200 vintage white cowboy boots with gold eagles on them. As he said, sometimes it's worth spending a little money to get something special. They are truly awesome - my eagle eye spotted them on a high shelf after I'd tried on and rejected five pairs and was on my way our the door.
These fit perfectly and I couldn't bear to walk out of there without them, so I ponied up.
This was at The Wild West Shop in Wimberly, Texas, which is in the Hill Country between Austin and San Antonio. It's run by a German lady with butt-length blond hair who can eye your feet and pull down boots that will fit you. Check them out www.koolboots.com

I, for one, am pretty excited about the prospect of being a cute and sassy old lady someday.
Oops! I posted to the wrong one... sorry I'm a n00b.
