What should i wear with these boots for photoshoot?
well....i guess there's lotsa variables. My humble opinion would be a pair of nice, blue-black Levi's or maybe some horse riding pants.


If u want a retro look.....maybe something of the 17-18th century French nobility. (remember The Three Musketeers ??)
Reply:A nice dress would look kind of nice or maybe skinny jeans and a dress/shirt length!! =]

HELP! My boots were found in a puddle of water! What do I do?

I decided to clean up my shoe area and found a pair of nice leather boots soaking in a puddle of water! They have probably been in the water for quite some time now!





What should I do? Just let them dry out? Or should I put something on them before I let them dry? Will the leather get all wrinkly now?

HELP! My boots were found in a puddle of water! What do I do?
I don't know. But whenever you have damp or wet shoes and you don't think they'll be dry by morning; place them lying down in front of the refrigerator below the door. The heat coming out of the exhaust will dry them by morning.
Reply:Since they are already soaked, I'd wash them out the rest of the way, in case there is mold/mildew. Then stuff them with newspaper and pt them in a warm area, but not on a vent. Direct heat will cause the leather to dry out and crack. You will want to treat them with mink oil or something to moisturize them. i use silicone on my boots, but they are riding boots and supposed to be waterproof. Whatever you use will likely darken the leather.





If these are expensive boots, I'd take them to a leather cleaner.

What could i wear with boots like this?

Besides Jeans!


Like what kind of dresses or skirts to work?


Thanks.


im 19 and 125lbs and 5'7" so im pretty slim xx


And fashionable please.





thanks xx





Kinda like this but more tan - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/VINTAGE-leather-k...

What could i wear with boots like this?
dark skinny jeans, vintage gold jewelry, and some amazing colored scarves. Maybe a cool graphic tee shirt. With those boots I see curly or wavy hair, maybe a structured military style jacket, and some amazingly colored nails!





I am also seeing some ethnic printed dresses in magazines that would look so cool with those boots. Dresses with Ikat prints, from H%26amp;M and Urban Outfitters would be the cheapest, but Anthropologie also has amazing dresses if you have the budget! Go to their online site.





Those boots are so gorgoues, and you can do so much with them. You could also do the Taylor Swift thing and pair them with a white dress or skirt, if you felt so inclined.





Have fun!
Reply:a funky brown or black skirt past the knee not too tight but not an A frame either. a kewl shirt layered with another one under it with a big brown belt about the same color with a big funky buckle attached. and a pair of simple hoops to add as an accessory. maybe a couple simple bracelets as well like beads or a couple charm bracelets. those boots could do alot if u think ;)ooooooooo or a soft sweater like cashmere, and put it with a suede skirt of brown darker than the boots but the sweater a soft color, and a small choker of pearls.
Reply:I actually own this dress;

And I wear it with those sorts of boot. Mine are more khaki though.


It looks utterly adorable, especially if you have slender, long legs.


I always were a small white jacket on top though.





Try Wetseal. %26lt;33


or this?

Reply:You could wear almost any type of dress, skirt, leggings, and jeans, with those boot.


Only thing is the dress or skirts should be mid calf, and the dress a bit wider on the bottom,


Those are nice for winter,
Reply:dark straight legged jeans


that fit good





tucked into the boots of course
Reply:poofy skirt with a bright color like yellow
Reply:tights would be better, leggins would look weird


hoped i helped!

As a vegetarian can I wear leather?

What are the arguments for and against?


I have leather boots and watch strap but I have worn my boots almost everyday since Christmas and my watch strap has lasted and will last for ages, do you think it's better to sacrifice 1 animal and use it wisely or use synthetic/plastic products that are harmful to the environment and and don't last as long?

As a vegetarian can I wear leather?
personally, i no longer buy leather products.


i DO wear my leather products that are not worn out yet because i feel that it would be wasteful to get rid of something i already own.


it does pose a problem though, because people will often see you order a vegetarian plate on a menu and then pay for it out of your leather wallet.....people are always looking for reasons to call you a hypocrite, and wearing leather is an easy avenue for that.


whenever someone asks me about my leather shoes and purses i can at least tell them it's from before i went veg, and then they understand. i think vegetarians should avoid leather for the obvious reasons (byproduct of the beef industry) as well as the less obvious ones (giving people ammo to call vegetarians hypocritical).


in the end though, do what you want....it's your life.
Reply:Hi you might find this interesting and maybe disturbing at the same time, if you became vegetarian because of animal issues then you might be happier buying ethical alternatives.


If you dont want to throw them away, wear them until they are worn out and replace with non-leather goods.





WHAT'S WRONG WITH LEATHER?


Leather may be made from cows, pigs, goats, and sheep; exotic animals like alligators, ostriches, and kangaroos; and even dogs and cats, who are slaughtered for their meat and skins in China, which exports their skins around the world. Since leather is normally not labeled, you never really know where (or whom) it came from.


Most leather comes from developing countries like India and China, where animal welfare laws are either non-existent or not enforced. Many of the millions of cows and other animals who are killed for their skin endure the horrors of factory farming—extreme crowding and deprivation as well as castration, branding, tail-docking, and dehorning, all without any painkillers. In India, an investigation found that cows have their tails broken and chili peppers and tobacco rubbed into their eyes in order to force them to get up and walk after they collapse from exhaustion on the way to the slaughterhouse. At slaughterhouses, animals routinely have their throats slit and are skinned and dismembered while they are still conscious after improper stunning.





Most of the millions of animals slaughtered for their skin endure the horrors of factory farming before being shipped to slaughter, where many are skinned alive. Buying leather directly contributes to factory farms and slaughterhouses since skin is the most economically important byproduct of the meat-packing industry. Leather is also no friend of the environment since it shares all the environmental destruction of the meat industry, in addition to the toxins used in tanning.





With every pair of leather shoes that you buy, you sentence an animal to a lifetime of suffering. Instead, you can choose from hundreds of styles of nonleather shoes, clothing, belts, bags, and wallets. Fashion should be fun, not fatal!
Reply:There is no specific rule to what you should or should not do. you can be a strict vegetarian - eating no meat or fish, only eating free range eggs and non-animal tested products - or just one who cuts out the main things like meat and fish.





It really depends on why you are a vegetarian. If you believe animals should simply not be killed unnecessarily for food, then i guess you could stil believe it is ok for them to be killed for shoes you would get good use out of. i personally do not buy leather anymore and am a strict vegetarian as i have gradually become more aware of the poor treatment of animals (not just how or why they are killed). i used to cut out meat but stil buy the occassional leather product as i found it hard to start with but i have eventually got stricter and im sure you could do the same.





As long as you are not being hypocritical i think you can do what you like since you can justify your actions. Though i will say that if you care animals you should try not to buy leather since the animal is dying for your shoes. Also, i have read that even the UN (who aren't a vegetarian based organisation at all) have said that one of the greatest things a person can do for the environment is to become vegetarian. so dont feel bad about using synthetic products :)
Reply:You can wear whatever you want. There are strict ethical vegans, which don't believe in eating, using, or wearing any animal products at all. There are dietary vegans, which believe in just not eating animal products. There are vegetarians which just don't eat meat but may wear leather, eat eggs and dairy. It's all up to you.
Reply:Leather is a bi-product of the beef industry so you are only using product from an animal that has been killed for other reasons.


Animals are not killed specifically for leather (at least cows and pigs aren't).





So, where not buying beef will reduce the demand for beef, not buying leather will not reduce the number of cows and pigs killed.





I say, wear it without guilt
Reply:No way! The Society will pull your Veggie Card, and call the Veggie cops on you. :-)


I'm a vegetarian and I justify using leather this way. The cow or pig was killed for its meat, the hide is a byproduct, so why let it go to waste? If the world was 100% vegetarian I'd have to switch to synthetic, belts, watch bands and shoes.





BTW: most synthetics are made from oil, or dinosaur flesh.
Reply:I don't understand how someone can be opposed to killing a cow for his/her meat, but okay with wearing the animal's flesh. However, we all make our choices in this world.





Wear the boots and watch strap until they wear out and then replace with animal-friendly alternatives.
Reply:do you think it's fair to sacrifice one animal just to make a boot? I would go with synthetic. It's not as harmful to the environment as raising livestock for meat/leather.
Reply:I agree with you. I have a leather jacket because it is so practical and will last me a long time. I don't eat beef, but I have no problem with wearing leather.
Reply:Yes


You can eat anything you wish..


Most refuse meat in their diet but will eat eggs cheese and milk


There is no law to adhere to.


Both are a matter of choice some are extreme when announcing their choice
Reply:I've been veggie for 17 years and haven't purchase leather or suede items that entire time. I just feel if I'm not going to eat it, then I really don't feel right wearing it either.
Reply:Yes, but as a vegan you can't.

Why do leather shoes "bleed" brown stuff on my socks?

I just bought a pair of leather boots, and I've worn them a couple times now, and my socks have all these brown marks all over them. How long will this happen? Why does it do this? Is there any way to stop this?

Why do leather shoes "bleed" brown stuff on my socks?
Probably your feet are sweating, and the moisture is causing the dye in the leather to fade on to your socks. It's going to keep happening until your boots are good and broke in.





Try some Oxy Clean on your white socks. You might also want to try a pre-treatment like those Tide or Clorox pens of detergent for spots.





Once your boots get totally soaked--like in the rain--the dye will dry up. Until then, it's going to be leopard spotted socks for you.





Good luck.
Reply:you should return them..


because this happened to my brother also..


and the brown marks..is dried blood..


so you should return them..the problem is they are probably to tight for you..maybe they are small..


so i think you should return them asap..


just clean them first..


im sorry about your leather shoes..


good luck.
Reply:The sweat from your feet is causing dye to rub off of the leather. I wouldn't count on it going away for awhile. Wear dark socks so it doesn't show.
Reply:the leather was probably stained prior to being sent from the factory. it will stop after a while. wear dark socks to hide it til then.
Reply:it's the stuff they treated the leather with for color. it should begin to stop in a week or so. best thing you can do is wear old socks.
Reply:Its from the shoe dye. Check with hints from heloise or some such person and I bet they will have and answer.
