I’ve been waiting about 15 years to utter those words…

It was the anticipation of fervent shoe lust that made me nearly drop the package handed to me by the UPS man…he looked frightened…and with good cause.

This package was my much awaited pair of the Michael Kors Gibson Boot. From what I could tell of the image online, this boot was everything that I’d been looking for. When I opened the package, it was even better than I had anticipated.

This leather beauty has a 5″ stacked heel with a 1″ platform and 7″ shaft with silver hardware and zipper. Althought it doesn’t show it in the photo, it has an ever so slightly squared toe! Two things that I love about this boot is the sturdy, thicker heel and the softly squared toe. Living in Pittsburgh, the last thing you want to do is to try to navigate the snow and ice in stiletto boots.

These boots will be perfect with this great grey boatneck sweater dress that I’ve been dying to wear…add some black tights…Maybe this will be my outfit for the Maniac Magazine blogger party tomorrow night in Pittsburgh?
