Internet Wishlist
You know what would be really nice? If some of these e commerce sites would allow you to just create a little bucket to put items you are interested in to review for later. I’m not talking about a shopping cart. I am talking about a little collective area where you can just paste or drag everything you want and then review it and narrow down your choices. Actually, a tool that would do this across all sites would really be even better. Something where I can throw a bunch of boots in since that is what I am on the hunt for right now, and then compare them all after I’ve done my browsing. With pictures. Not urls. Then I can sort my little mix by whatever I want. Mainly price and shipping date availability since it is Wednesday and I am shopping for a pair of shoes I intend to wear on Friday evening.
My current method is to open several FireFox browsers by site, and then create a new tab for everything I am considering. As I roll through and rule something out I close the tab, continue on with the process, and will hopefully wind up with a winner. Annoying. Time consuming. And no possible way for me to ask a friends opinion without emailing them a list of 20-30 links.
So if you are looking for a project, please do that one. All I ask is that you let me know about it when it’s done, and maybe write an ode to me somewhere on the site. If it is out there already, please, someone send it to me.
K. Thanks. Bye.

Stylehive has a cool bookmarklet that lets you do that, it’s mostly for fashion and home furnishing which is probably what you are shopping for now.
I like the one on the bottom left first, top right second. Not a big fan of slouchy or wrinkly, and the cuff makes you look like you are auditioning for a role in Pirates of the Caribbean

Thanks! I will check it out! I have a list of about 25 I am considering. I actually tried to order the top right but they are sold out. That’s another thing….let me know what is in stock dammit!

Great idea! Sort of like amazon’s wish list, right, but for every site you visit? That would be a cool add on for firefox.
i must say i agree with graywolf, not a fan of wrinkly boots- dogs that another story
those white boots are kick ass though.
ps/ the highlights for the video are awesome, i have to view w/ sound next time.

Thanks Pat!! I am checking out the stylehive one and maybe I’ll do a review of it.
Even though I don’t wear a lot of gold, after the black were sold out I did go to try to buy the white ones and alas, they are also sold out.

I recommend Kaboodle.com. I’ve heard StyleHive is also nice.

Danielle-
I agree that since you don’t wear much yellow gold (you should not roll with those gold ones since thats not your usual color. I think despite what the guys say, the slouch boot look is in, and I really think a nice pair of the brown or black slouches are a good choice ( I like the look on ladies). To bad you already decided, since Friday passed.
Hope you had fun wherever you went in those diva boots.
Stay positive and beautiful!

Thanks Erika! I wound up just getting a pair in person at the store that look like the bottom left. Glad I did that too because I wound up needing a smaller size than I would have ordered.
I did have a blast in them though! Hope all is well with you!

All is well with me.
Have a great holiday my friend,
Erika
