...is for Stuart Weitzman over-the-knee boots with bold silvertone studs and grommeted buckle straps.

"Wow, those are badass boots", one of my co-workers said as I walked in late for a meeting.

I was so tempted to reply back, "Oh thanks!!!! I found these at Saks and I really liked them the first time I tried them on. But I thought it was too pricey so I passed at first. Then later that day, it was so difficult to concentrate with work coz they were all I could think of and so after office, I immediately went back and bought them! I'm so glad I did coz I really like them soooo much! It's got all the elements I wanted for in a boots this season: buckle, studs, platforms and it's over-the-knee! And you know even if this over-the-knee fad fades, I could still wear them by folding the top and revealing the rich, supple gray leather underneath!"

But then it was a formal meeting with 7 of us in the room so I just smiled and graciously said, "thank you."

Here's a few ways I styled them since I got them.

-- skirt: Moschino C&C -- sweater: Banana Republic -- jacket: RL -- over-the-knee boots: Stuart Weitzman --

-- sweater dress: XOXO -- belt: CK -- over-the-knee boots: Stuart Weitzman --

-- top: Julie's Closet -- mini: Gap -- over-the-knee boots: Stuart Weitzman --

-- blazer: Theory -- tee: Debenhams -- skinny jeans: J Brand -- over-the-knee boots: Stuart Weitzman --

-- eyelet skirt worn as top: Christopher Kane for Topshop -- jacket: RL -- tights: F21 --
-- over-the-knee boots: Stuart Weitzman --

Not only did they pass the styling test but they also passed the comfy test. Even at 4 inches, I could wear these boots all day without an aching feet after. I even tried walking 10 blocks wearing them and was still alive after. And hey, if Fergie could rock, dance and jump around with these on, maybe I could even run a 5K wearing these studded, grommeted & buckled platform beauties, why not?!
