hello my lovelies

my new rachel comey mars boots. i've only been staring at them online for the last several months only to see them slowly disappear and then be restocked at la garconne. i was hesitant for ages because i heard they ran narrow/small and it's pretty hard to justify heels when i work from home, but these fit true to size and i'm so happy i got them.  i found the colour a bit apricot-y though so i rubbed them lightly with some leather oil and the colour's nice and rich now.
on a side note, i've just realised what a lazy photographer i am. i inherited a few vintage nikon lenses which haven't been out of the case for a good 8 years or so. today some plastic bit fell off my d80 kit lens so i was forced to get one of the others out, and am i glad i did. i don't know if you can tell but i can't believe how much better the image quality is.
