Now, I’m not a big fan of cowboy boots, but if I were able to get some NFR Tickets face value, I’d definitely be willing to attend the National Finals Rodeo coming in December to Las Vegas, Nevada, and I’d actually consider wearing cowboy boots!
So I decided to “zapp.me” some “cowboy boots”, and I scoped out these Old Gringo Leopardito 8″ Cowboy Boots, as they combine my love of animal prints and my favorite color of pink. Available from Zappos.com, $379.95 with free shipping.
Part cowgirl, part fashionista, these leopard print boots are the perfect addition to your wardrobe! Dual pull on straps. Distressed leopard print toe and upper. Leather lined. 1 1/2″ heel.
Ok, now I got distracted because Old Gringo makes mules, too….
Now I would definitely wear these Old Gringo Leopardito Mules (remember brown mules are my absolute favorite shoes), available from Zappos.com as well for $289.95 with free shipping.
Show off your wild side in these cute leopard print mules. Distressed leather upper for a great weathered look. Leather lined. “Scratched” leather outsoles and heel. Tip of the heel has added rubber for slip-resistance. 2 1/4″ heel.
*Old Gringo® boots go through a 130 step handmade production process. Old Gringo® also develops and tans its own leathers and textures to make sure the end result is a super high quality product. No wonder they are so expensive!

Squeak and I went shopping (no surprise, I know) on our way to the airport to board the plane for Las Vegas, and these black sandals caught my eye. I knew it was fate that I had to have them when I saw they were called “Vegas”! Whatcha think? I love ‘em!
MUDD Vegas T-Strap Platform Dress Sandals are available from Shoes.com, $57 with free shipping.
Of course, I ended up buying four more pairs of shoes while actually in Vegas that I’ll have to write about later. I have to finish packing as I’m heading to sunny California in the morning – too early to go shopping beforehand, or else I’d look for “Cali” shoes! Have a good weekend – I plan to!

While in Las Vegas, Squeak and I bowled at the Gold Coast – Squeak is quite the bowler! Me, on the other hand, am not. I don’t think I even broke 100. I always says I can’t be good at everything.
We posed to get a picture of us in our bowling shoes. Even though we both wear a 7.5, the shoes are obviously old and stretched out that we both ended up getting a size 7. I’m glad we remembered to bring socks as I didn’t want to put my bare foot in those well-used shoes, and it was $4 to buy a pair of socks from the vending machine.
I’ve always thought owning a pair of bowling shoes would be cool, so I set out to find some online. They are hard to come by! The only retro style bowling shoes I found were on closeout at BowlingShirt.com, and they didn’t have my size.
I did up finding a pair of bowling shoes that I did like and would wear (on a bowling league, probably not in public) in my favorite color of pink – Dexter Groove Bowling Shoes in Pink/White, available from OnlineShoes.com, $49.95 with Free Shipping. Get in the game with the Dexter Groove bowling shoe. The vintage design elements of this sleek women’s bowling shoe merge with hip modern style to create a fun look. A synthetic upper lends durability, as the classic rubber outsole accompanies you through your game. The raised heel and microfiber S8 slide soles of the Dexter Groove bowling shoe give flash and panache day or night.
P.S. Did you notice our bowling shirts from BowlingShirt.com? They are even in our favorite colors (me=pink, Squeak=red)!
