Amanda's Red Boots

Amanda's Red Boots

Tell me about your red boots.
These boots are made by Alannah Hill (who is not particularly one of my favourite designers but I fell in love with these boots at first sight!) I think they are just perfect! I love the colour, the brooch and the red ribbons. They are just so me! Unfortunately they are not the easiest heel to walk in so I don’t get to wear them too much, and I like to save them for special occasions so they have a bigger impact on the people who see
them!

What’s the story behind you getting them?
Like all of my shoes, they were an impulse buy. I just can’t help but whip out my credit card when I see new shoes! My friend was working at the store where I purchased them at the time so I got them a little cheaper which helped sweeten the deal!

So, why exactly do you love shoes so much?
I need one in every colour to go with my outfits, every style for different comfort levels, moods and seasons. Shoes to go with stockings and classic vintage heels that every girl must own! I can’t part with shoes, they have to be broken beyond repair or stolen from me.

    This is really nice. I especially love the red bag that is out of focus, in the background. It really ties the image together, I think.

    fantastic lighting, did you have to alter it much? Film or Digital. infact does anyone still use film except me.

  • Jo O'Briencommunity ambassador replied

    Pretty much left it as taken. I used digital for this shot but I still have a soft spot for film, particularly disposable film cameras.

    red black and white always work well. I love the bag in the background, and by the way just how many pairs of shoes and boots are we allowed to have? it’ s very hard to stop collecting!
