Luuuvverrs! I miss you so. Thanks for sticking with me…I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend!! Due to my internet drama, I’m extending my FABULOUS giveaway til Thursday! I do need to get this out of my system though…
Boots. Boots!
Obsessed. Yes, we are ALL DYING FOR FALL, fall fashion is the best, and sweating doesn’t really work for me…there is NOTHING I feel more confident in than a tight but not too tight 3/4 sleeved cashmere sweater, perfect jeans (my go-to’s are True Religion and Joe’s) tucked into boots with at least a 4.5 inch heel, add accessories up the ying yang and I am feelin gooood. When you have um…curves, summer attire can easily translate into looking slutty without meaning to. At least for me, because I am very self conscious of the “boobs” those 14 year old pervs are google searching.
Want a Liz story that borders on too much information? OK!
I once ever so innocently found myself involved in a lot a bit of an inter-office romance with a flippin HOT coworker. It was fall/winter, so the variations on the above outfit were endless and I just generally felt like a confident, badass B walking around and tossing my hair (I promise between all that I actually worked.). His office and my office were fairly close, his office having open windows to the hallway…so you better believe I took the route that would have me strutting by his office windows whenever possible, aka all day long. I was on a mission! SHAMELESS I tell you. Unbridled badass boot confidence can do that to a girl…
For a while we were like this, totes mcgoats smitten and I think, high off the “danger” of it all….meaning, it’s so fun to separately stroll into a big meeting after leaving the same house (WHAT?)…and because he was a funny…in a co-worker voice he’d say, “so how was your night, Liz?” from across the conference table…Uh…I just guzzled coffee and IM’ed him to shut it trying not to giggle. Could they smell the scent of scandal in the air, I wondered??
Note to self-AMEN for a reminder that being single is fun, confidence does come from within but badass boots can help, and dating a co-worker can lead to mayjah awkwardness! Life Lesson #48997 learned the fun way! Bwahahahaha…(He still calls, p.s. hmm a lot lately….to be cont.) Also, I no longer work there, and that is in NO WAY due to this litte rendezvous. There were NO casualties, I promise, I value my career so therefore all funny business was saved for after hours. K thx stop looking at me like that…
Anywho, uh, how about you turn your judgemental eyes on some badass boots!

Ahh i love you and this post and finding out about your office scandals, fabulous!!!
The ysl boots NEED to be mine!!!
STUNNING!!!!!!
Im praying for your internet to come back!
LOVE you and miss you! xxxxxxxx
An all black outfit does it for me. Could be because of the the hubs' Underworld fascination. I always feel rather bad arse in all black with some killer heels and a red mani. Damn, I need the cool weather to get here now!
I am in love with the YSL boots!!
hahahaha I had an inter office romance once too and it didn't work out as well… and now I work in a tech company that there are NO HOT GUYS AT WORK. all dorky nerdy guys that breathe programming. lol. I guess I can focus on work more… Have a great labour day weekend!
I'm glad that your work has acceptable people to scandalous with…truly me and the janitor….not such a sexy story..oh gross i can't continue with the visuals of the closet and mop..
LOVE the YSL boots! =)
ahhhhhhhhhhhhahahahaha!!! i love it liz. FREAKIN LOVE IT!!!
slutty? nahhh
more like INSPIRING! conference rooms vs. hotels…hmmm…i like it. i like it a lot.
and those boots. I DIE! i totes mcgotes know what you mean about the whole lookin slutty without trying deal. comes with having bigger than average taters. haha! damn preteen male pervs!!!
it's going down down down! and i canNOT WAIT! georgia hookup in HOTLANTA. i say YES PLEASE! BOOYA!
Oh that was so funny, I waiting for the episode.
xoxo
Rawr…Brian Atwood!!! Scandalicious indeed girly. Been there, done the coworker thing. Sneaky-sneaky luv ♥ OOoo strut your stuff and show your confidence in high boots. All the more to make him want to take them off!!!
Nothing like a good office romance♥
Me though, I had one that ended in a sort of crummy way a few years ago and ever since I vowed 'never again'. Friends say 'never say never' but I'm still saying it. But on a much more positive note, I love your boots. I need a new pair!
Wishing you a great new week dear Liz!♥xo
Dear Liz:
OMG interoffice scandals. I kind of love this story. I ain't one to judge
Sorry to hear about internet woes… but hopefully you will get that sorted out SOON.
And thanks for the shoutout about my NYFW reportage! Hopefully I will do your lovely shoutout some justice…
xx D
P.S. Dear YSL boots: you will be mine.
Oh my gosh, I love you. Can I keep you, please? LOVE this post.
I scoped out a ridiculously hot co-worker once and decided he would be MINE. But then he went and asked me out and good LORD he was a mess when we actually had a conversation and I wanted to run far far away but then I was stuck with the awkwardness from then until eternity. Yuck. Glad your office shindig turned out WAY BETTER than mine! Did I mention I love you? And this post? Cause I do.
I totes had some interoffice hook ups back in the day and while they all ended pretty ugly it was definitely an experience I think everyone should have at least once in their 20's.
Love me some F-me boots! H-O-T!
boots are made for me to want!
ah love this. I lovee boots!! actually i love heels in general, there is SUCH an appeal to them =)
andddd my confidence booster is hmm… probably whenever I put on something that's more fitted and it looks good or when I get my hair at the perfect volume/curl!
Love those!! Miss you chickie & the AT&T bs is ridiculous – WTF!?
I tried on my OTK boots and I need to stretch the thigh part – LOL! I think they were made for the 95pd-ers -damn them!!
XOXO Get back asap!
you are a bad ass bitch with or with out those hot boots. (toss hair – no weave for me lol)
and i heart that photo you got on your post…digggging it.
im sad im not going to NYFW i just like the electricity in the air and the after parties. ill have to stalk DSequins blog for sure!! xoxox
Wow, wow, wow! Can I live vicariously through you Liz , you super feisty bit of femme fatal you?! No wonder that poor guy keeps ringing!! As for the boots – extreme dream clothing from the house of YSL!
man apparently i was wearing the wrong shoes when i worked at the office!! lol! but i am on a mission to find some killa boots!! i'm pretty sure confidence is the free gift with purchase that comes when you get new boots…
and give me the number to those dbags over at at&t….this is just cruel!! you know i've got your back!! latinas unite!!
Ahh, I've missed your posts! Lack of internet is the worst! Maybe you should take some time off and join me in London this week instead
Thigh-highs are a defnite must on my FW list. I just haven't quite decided if I need a heel or not… or maybe I'll get one of each… haha. To be honest there's nothing sexier than an inter-office romance, but no… not speaking from experience… sigh. I do constantly get approached when wearing a certain pair of stiletto boots (even by gay men… it's crazy). I only wear those when I really need a confidence booster, otherwise they just waste my time when I'm trying to go somewhere and people keep bugging me about them…
HAHA "How was your night, Liz?"
You are funny! Fun while they last, things like that!x
Oooh, boots. I love boots. I generally don't like the cold, but boots make it worth it.
I think for me it's a really nice pair of jeans that's probably a little too expensive.
ummm… ill have the YSL boots thanks. seriously. ohmigod.
Welcome back dear! How are U?
I love Chloé so much…
XoXo
you're back! cool…
great heels+great jeans+white thin coton top.a bit of cleavage, a bit of shoulders, a bit of tattoos…
everybody's obsessed by boots in the blog world and i think i've now joined it!the Chloe are AMAZING!!!
xxx

Now use one of the boots and kick your internet provider's buttttttt.

and yes those boots!!!! I CANNOT WAIT FOR BOOTS!!! YES!!!!
AND AND AND…SCANDALOUS LIZ IS MY FAVORITE!!! you may have gotten some work done in between your flirt session but i am sure HE DID NOT!!! who could get any work done with your hot bum around?!?
Those boots? Fabulous!!!

Hot Chloe boots!
Going to bookmark Dream Sequins for the FW round up!
seriously just woke up so i could read this post again. HA!
…the scent of scandal smells so good!
ps. I WANT TO TALK TO SAMPSON!!!
boots! yay for fall
Booooooots!
I want 'em.
That is all.
I am so pissed you are going to be on the East coast and yet I WILL NOT SEE YOU.
Double yoo. Tee. EFFFFFFFFFFf.
I have something for you at my blog
Those YSL boots are pure sex. Happy Labour Day weekend.
oooh, I love a good scandalous office-romance story! Shoes are always a confidence booster for me… and a great bra. No one can see it, but it gets the job done!
it wasn't me, it was the dress! Or in your case, it was the boots! There's nothing like a pair of sex on heels to make a girl feel frisky! Good luck with AT&T!
Those boots are killer and I enjoyed your little scandalous office affair, you go girl! Lol! So, if it makes you feel better AT&T is being stupid for me too, it is not working at my apartment. Hence, I am using the boyfriend's internet right now. So super frustrating! Hope you are enjoying your three day weekend, XO! Hope the internet gets fixed for both of us pronto!
Woo you are a bundle of fun aren't you girl? I'd agree that boots are a definite confidence booster, along with high heels, mini skirts, and lingerie!
I'm waiting for this fucking heat to go away so I can wear my snake skin boots and bomber jacket that comes right to the top of my tight ass.
those boots are hot like fire!
ah, boots… 'come to me'.
well it's gone all freezing cold here in the UK so I can wear boots with pride now… yeehah!!!!
love hearing about your scandals! x
I own more boots than any one person has the right to own.
Also, this? "to be cont"? Not okay. I want the rest of the story! Patience? I do not have it.
I for sure understand the whole "elevator" thing on 'Greys Anatonmy'! Elevators are the place to mingle!
I'm so sorry to hear that you are still having internet problems. That's definitely a drag. Good luck with that. I hope your week got off to a wonderful start. Cheers!
Definitely definitely agree that badass boots lend to confidence! And your office romance sounds SAUCY!
there is nothing like boots for some confidence. love. it.
haha liz! you are so funny! can't wait to hear how things go with that boy
xxx

Sooooo happy you got my postcard! Such a fun project, isn't it?
Love these boots. I desperately need a pair of black heeled boots for fall. I think it's the only thing that will make me feel better about all this icky rain we get in Vancouver.

oh office romances…how i HEART hearing about yours!!! if it were me, and i was drinking coffee and said office lover asked how my night was, i could pretty much guarantee my face would have turned BRIGHT red and the coffee would have creeped right through my nose….preeeeetty violently.
totally obsessed with those boots, especially the atwoods.
drool…pant…chuckle uncomfortably…and….cry. that's what looking at them evokes. i love your post, but what would help me in my everyday life is to find a HOT pair that are <3 inches high and <$200. there, now I just gave you an assignment!

i love this.
i love you.
