Doctor, doctor!

I am going back to school shopping soon, which is probably my favorite part of the entire summer. My mom is allowing me to purchase one pair of magnificent but pricey shoes: Doc Marten's!

Excitement! It's a silly thing to get excited about I suppose, but being a girl whose shoe collection consists of flip flops in various colors, generic flats, and one pair of fake Ugg boots, it's hard for me not to be excited. I have been scanning the Doc Marten's USA Store, but there is a problem.

They're all so amazing, I can't decide which ones to purchase!

I've narrowed down the list a bit to make it easier on myself and my mother.


Going clockwise, starting from the top.
1. 1460 - Black
2. 1460 - "Red Nebula"
3. 1460 - "Aztec Crazy Horse"
4. Ellie Lace Up Boot

I'll begin with the first one, probably the most simple pair. I think that's why I like them; their simplicity. They could go with basically anything. But I'm not sure if I like how clean they look? If that makes sense. I'm too lazy to work to wear shoes in, so I like to buy them already worn in, like the other pairs.

Next is the reddish pair. I'm not sure exactly what draws me to them. Maybe I like the different values of red. When I see them, I think of someone riding a horse driven carriage a couple hundred years ago, haaa. I like the contrast of the lighter eyelets on the deep red.

The next pair brings up the same thing I said earlier. They look as if they have already been worn in! Nice and simple, matches a lot.

But I think the final pair all the way on the left is my favorite. It also happens to be cheapest ;D It's a different style than the other ones and I love the shape, color, and texture. Still, I'm not sure if it looks too much like a cowboy boot (which I'm planning to get when I go to Gatlinburg in 3 weeks).

Please, anyone, give me opinions! Help me out. The situation is dire!
