Pirates of the Caribbean (the first one; the next 2 were okay, the 4th one kind of unnecessary, but I love Johnny Depp as a pirate, so I'll take it) is one of my favorite movies. Since high school, therefore, I've had a great fondness for pirate, and pirate themed things. So when the Zara sale first began this season, and I saw these pirate boots, I added them to my list of things to purchase by the end of the sale. Get them here. They originally retailed at $189.99, but by the first price cut, had been slashed down to $129.99. Badass as these shoes were, I unfortunately did not have a spare $130 lying around with which to purchase them. So I figured I'd wait, and maybe by the end of the sale, they'd be down to about $40 or $50, which is infinitely more affordable. By the third price cut, the boots were retailing at maybe $60-70, I can't recall. But they still had plenty in stock online and in store, so I wondered, if I didn't buy them now, and kept waiting, would they go down any further? To my surprise, they did! Zara started cutting them every few days or so, until I noticed them online at $30! Many sizes were starting to sell out, so I figured it would be a great time to get them. Now I can proudly say I am the owner of these fabulous pirate boots! And, as of yesterday, I managed to purchase all of the items I had set out to buy this time around during the sale, for way less than retail! So, I will certainly be wearing these boots out in Williamsburg or Downtown LA sometime after the Feb NY bar exam. I'll also definitely be wearing them on any pirate ships I'm fortunate to travel on! After all, it is a pirate's life for me!
