Isabel Marant showed her collection, dubbed "A little bit country, a little bit rock n' roll," to the fashion elite in Paris yesterday. I could have lived with out the country bit, but when it came to her chain wrapped slouchy boots...in the words of Rachel Zoe: "I DIE!" Remembering an old pair of Cole Haan boots I had stashed in the back of my closet, I wasted no time fashioning a pair of my very own.
Slouchy boots Original
Chain
Super glue or double stick tape
Pliers
Fasten the chain to the back of the boot using super glue or a piece of tape (depends if you want to remove the chain later on down the line). Wrap the chain around the boot several times, working upward. When you reach the top, connect the chain together using pliers.

Is it wrong that I love the idea of sweatpants being paired with the originals? They do remind me of Chanel though [the chain look]
I personally would add bigger chains to your version, but I'm sure it'd be harder to deal with in a real life walking around with chains going all over the place.
I think this might be your next project: http://d.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20081001/capt.4a8fee19183d44dfb7f3227dee015e8d.france_fashion_par107.jpg?x=207&y=345&q=85&sig=qfrT501yubkfJob3dqcKww--

I love the first picture for Isabel Marant Boots. However, I love Isabel Marant Sneakers deeply, just like pictures at http://www.isabelmarantbasket.co.uk.
I love Isabel Marant Sneakers more than the boots.
