i need someone to answer your first question first..what ARE pixie boots...

 

[adorefaith]

i've just about worn these to death...it just occured to me that they're quite pixie-ish..
do they qualify?...i guess we'd need a definition first....

 

[softgrey]

yep- i think they qualify...

technically...pixies are fairies...
so they are boots that a fairy might wear...


so that is sort of open to some interpretation...
depending on the particular fairy i guess...LOL...
there is a whole section on the UK ebay site on them...

here are some pics from ebay....
i don't totally love these but it's a good starting point of reference imo...

just want to add that you look as cute as a pixie in that little white number...

i love pixies... i even have a pixie haircut these days....
i feel we just need a bit of tinkerbell to provide us all with some inspiration... .

i dont think she's wearing boots though...

[softgrey]

oh yeah..your haircut does look like a pixie...that's funny!..

*yeah..
i guess disney pixies wear ballet slippers...
but forest fairies have to wear boots of some kind...

Oh faith, you're lovely...
You do simplicity very well...
& your hair is so gorgeous...

This thread saddens me...
as it reminds me of a great pr. of brown, leather pixie boots
w/ side-bow detailing I failed to purchased several months ago...
$45.00 - marked down from $200...
Still haunts...

I've always called these Peter Pan boots. When mine were still intact (), I wore them with skinny jeans tucked in and with skirts.
