I was going to share a story about what happened with Eros while I was away, but I don't want Truthful Tuesday to turn into a regular whine session about the boarding barn, so I'll save it for tomorrow. Instead, I'll admit that I did it again. Ugh. I don't want to tell you. I'm kind of ashamed....
It all started innocently enough... The other night I went looking for the Samshield clip on sunshield, but for less money. I buy a lot of ridiculous crap, but only for the best deals! Anyway... I found one in the UK (and the winter liner too!) for a reasonable price from
Equiport. I've not shopped with them before, but I figured I'd give it a shot. They use paypal, so I have protection if things go awry. Happy to follow up later if anyone wants to shop with them in the future.
Anyway, whenever I find a new to me tack shop online, I generally browse their site to see what they have. Especially if it's European because they get cooler stuff sooner than we do. Know what I discovered? Ridiculously good prices on De Niro boots. Like, those can't be right, good prices. But I didn't act! No I didn't! I did not buy new boots
that day. Though I did find a pair to lust after that just happen to match my navy One K snakeskin helmet perfectly...
Pretty right? I know. It's all I've been thinking about since I saw them. I do have navy boots already... But they're patent on the inside calf and
kinda very slippery so I'm not in love. Plus, these match my helmet. I haven't tried De Niro boots yet, but I've heard good things. Normally they're stupid expensive in the states... And did I mention the great price? Because it was really great. Even with shipping added in, they were right around $400 with semi custom sizing. Can't really go wrong there, right?
Alas. I couldn't hold out any longer. I placed the order this morning. In 8-10 weeks hopefully I'll be able to introduce you all to them.
And yes, I still have the Celeris AND the Fama's on the way. Shut up. I have a problem, and there do not seem to be any support groups for boot-a-holics. What's a girl supposed to do?
