Lace up oxford boots:  $4.99 @ Urban Behavior (RSP:  $59.50)

I've seen these boots for weeks-they never had my size, so I was beginning to inure myself to the idea of never owning them.

Still, I decided to look on a whim today-they had my size!  The ones I picked up were dark brown, and my friend actually found the ones above.  I liked the above color better, whereas she had no preference, so we ended up trading.  Hooray!
