Dr. Martens x Agyness Deyn (1490 'Aggy' Boots)


Once again I have ordered/purchased a new pair of shoes! 

This time, from the Doc Martens x Agyness Deyn collection - the Aggy 1490 boots in Black!

(they come in both black and cherry red)






Hiya folks! 


I have been pondering about these boots since I heard about the release of them back in August. One of my all-time favorite YouTubers and bloggers, Lexi (aka sototallyvlog on YouTube and FashionFilth.com), just recently picked them up and I was literally DROOLING over them. She styles them so well! I did some  research online to read more or even see if there was a review or something online... but no. There is nothing. I did, however, come across a site that said Miley Cyrus wore these (GAH! my style mother!) and I became obsessed. More obsessed than before. I then made up my mind to buy them, RAN (to my computer) to the Dr. Martens store (their website) and quickly looked them up to see if they were still available. Thus, they were not - and I was extremely disappointed. So, my journey to find them continues...

at 2.00 a.m., I began frantically googling for them, and found a link to an ebay auction which ended in 8 hours. It was definitely a match made in heaven, considering they were just my size - US 6 (UK 4). I set my alarm for later in the morning around 9.30 a.m., went to bed. I then woke up to my beautiful alarm which plays 'Hey There Delilah' by The Plain White T's. I waiting, staring at the computer screen for over an hour, when finally... I needed to use the restroom! URG! ...when I got out of the restroom, it had a mere 10 minutes left of bidding. My heart was racing with panic. The starting bid was $94.99 with 1 bid. I knew the bidder was watching (I mean, who wouldn't watch on a pair like these?!) so I waited until the last 30 seconds and I placed an auto bid of 200 whopping dollars. within the last 10 seconds, they bid it up to just around $127.50 - but were unsuccessful at winning these shoes (which were obviously made for me! *devious laugh*).

I just got them in the mail today and will be doing an unboxing/review video on my YouTube channel. Stay tuned!

xoxo
