I love the glamorous Sunday or Fleetwood…
I think Sunday would have to be my fav! What a cool idea.
Hope I win! My boots could use a little sprucing.
“Mustang”–hands down! I’ve had it in my Wishpot forever–it’s just too cute! A little country, a little bling for the boots, how can you go wrong? Plus, I don’t think I would ever tire of it being equestrian themed.
Now this is a giveaway that has me clicking my heels together wishing and hoping to be a shoo-in!
I nearly screamed at the thought of ikat bows, my two most favorite things, adorning and sprucing up my well-loved (read scruffy) boots! …but then I continued clicking around and the Black/Gold Moondance II on the brown boots also sent me into a frenzy. I am head over heels with their entire new Fall collection!
Gorgeous! I adore the Marrekesh Express bandits.
The name reminds me of standing on the beach in Spain between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean and seeing mysterious Morocco on the horizon. They conjure images of snake charmers, tiled spas and mint lemonade.
Adorned with these bandits, I just know my boots would follow my heart.
Fleetwood in black, oh my. I’ve never seen anything so exquisite. It would look stunning on my favorite black gucci suede. the french linen, the grey/black beading – unbelievable…. and it would dress up my live-in black leather boots.
i live in boots all winter, nothing but boots and i’m in love with the entire embellished collection. ohh thank you so much, i’ve never heard of The 2 Bandits until today!
The moondance boots rock… I love the design on them. I absolutely adore the idea of where them with a summer dress or over my jeans. Boots this cute you can’t cover up!
marrakesh! look so cool
wowza- a free pair of bandits- ok ready, set, here comes the good response.
i absolutely adore bandits- its like 90 degrees in LA but who cares because i got my bandits to keep me lookin cool (uhh sorry for the cheese)- anyways pickin gone favorite style is super hard butttt if i were stranded on a desert island and could only bring one pair id go harvest. they make me happy.
love my bandits- xxx LaLa
Well, after perusing and much back and forth I’ve decided the pink DARJEELING’s are my fave and here’s why:
Boots are typically seen as a masculine shoe. Sure, boots can be sexy (as can most menswear one women when done correctly), but these lively pink bows are just the thing to liven up a pair of boots (ruggedly worn Etienne Aigner’s in my case) and I love they bright pop of color they’d provide to an otherwise casual ensemble.
Thanks for the opportunity !
First I just have to say that I LOVE my bandits! I even wrote a blog about them on my bog site http://www.thebonastyle.com. After, careful review my all time favorite pair is the Moondance II. The reason Is simple! ART DECO! I love the black and gold, when I saw them for the first time the first thing that came to mind is South Beach, Art Deco and GLAM!
I love any designer who channels old Hollywood with a modern twist!
LOVE, LOVE LOVE!!!
ooo, I’d really really love to win that teepee!!!
but would be almost as happy with “mocking bird” boots.
This is the first time I heard of bandits and I am in freakin love!!! ♥ I love the Bonnie and Clyde, but my boyfriend would think I am damn sexy in the Mustangs!
I’m absolutely in love with the Farrah. The colors are so bright and vivid, perfect to spice up my boots for the new school year. I wore them day in and day out through winter and spring and even some of summer this year. Even I’m starting to get a little tired with my gorgeous cowboys. But the bright colors and the exotic design would definitely bring all my love back.
Greatest idea ever to breathe new life into my favorite footwear of all time – my boots! I’d rock a pair of the Sundays every day of the week.
The Sunday in black is sheer perfection; I’d love to use them to dainty up my favorite post-punk outfits. Blondie meets Anita O’Day!
Fleetwood, beaded black and grey are beautiful bandits. It’s a lovely accessory that will definitely keep the feeling of romantic princess alive especially when all you’re doing is going to the office. If only they gave me super powers!
so i have to say… i saw these at BellJar in person for the first time and they are even cooler than i imagined!! just one problem… i need to go boot shopping first
I think these “bandits” are SO FABULOUS! I am obsessed with boots and even more obsessed with these accessories for my tan boots. I think the “Sunday” design would be the best way to make my boots Glamorous! I am a senior at Tulane University and these would make everyone’s heads turn! Thanks so much for the chance to win a pair of these bandits!!
I love short shorts & boots! But i love bandits more. I have been lusting after them the whole summer! I wear boots every day (yes even in the summer- I have raynaud’s) & I NEED these to make my boots happy. I can’t decide which set I adore more, sierra or bianca. love love love them all! great giveaway. love your blog… just added it to my reader.
Cheers!
My favorite pair is the Marrakesh Express – the dark color is perfect for fall into winter but the bright embellishments keep them cheerful and exotic – they would brighten up a gray winter day.
I really like Edie in camel because I have the PERFECT knee-high boots to go with it. It’d definitely add flair (for lack of a better word) to otherwise versatile boots.
I think I generally love them all. The leather of the boots in the photos looks soft yet durable and the colors are warm and earthy. I love the detailing on the top of each of them.
However, since I must pick an absolute favorite, Cherokee is pulling on my heart strings. The color is rich (sort of reminds me of strawberries dipped in a dark chocolate). On top of that the detailing tickles my fancy with the candy like colors and lively vibrancy. I also like that it has the red tassels.
I’d wear them with a purple dress I have in my closet from oldnavy. Or perhaps my DIY fringe crop top that I’m working on with some distressed denim shorts.
I just got these pair of killer equestrian boots and I think the Edie boot bands would look amazing on them – plus the fact that beading is fabulous.
my fav. is Mooncancel! bcs I love the black and gold combo teh most!
The best pair is the Moondance II. There’s just something about that pair of Bandits and a giant TeePee that just works. If I do get the bandits though, how the hell am I going to carry around the giant TeePee everywhere?
lovee itt
Bandits II are genius.
Keeping the spirit of summer alive by adding grecian blue to your favorite fall boots….
could anything make a girl happier?
That should have said moondanceII
Im too distracted falling in love with the whole catalog
Ohhh my !! Been loving their collection and site for awhile now and still saving up for one
But if asked to pick my favourite, it would have to be Moondance II !!
It would be perfectly paired with my vintage cowboy boots I bought awhile back. It’s really an old pair,so with Moondance it give those boots a new look and I could Moondance the whole night long
I have ben a longtime fan of Bandits! These are a genius idea to spruce up your favorite boots and your daily mood. You just ooze with cool when you wear them.
