Since it was sensible shoes yesterday, thigh highs today

Christian Louboutin Supra Fifre 120 thigh-high boots

I picked these because a) I'm a sucker for the combined red and black as you've seen before and b) the lacing. I don't find them very useful and it's not like I'd ever find a moment in RL to ever wear them appropriately. And mostsome thigh highs aren't all that easy to wear without looking ... cheap. But they're so very hot!

I like the style of these, much more like the boots you do find in my warderobe. Not quite with such a pricetag on though...

Stella McCartney Perforated thigh-high boots
These have a weirdly futuristic look IMO. But the metal heel and almost tapdance style to the metal sole under just the front toe part of the foot sells it for me.

Someday I will have an excuse to wear thigh-highs without looking cheap. XD

THIS is something I have left to figure out how to do too. Not like it's an everyday gear for a librarian, and the parties I got never dress up to that degree ;P

I'm an engineer, this is doubly challenging. I work with the fashionably challenged most of the time. At least my current employment has a few creative among the programmers.

I'm such a dork, but I saw that picture and realized I'd used them on Polyvore really recently, so I'm pasting my link...

(I outfit my RP characters on Polyvore, that's my defense... I could never wear that in real life now that I live in the middle of nowhere, PA.)
