J Crew Mocs

While the moccasin trend seems to come and go - mostly depending on when Nicole Richie and Kate Moss dig them out of their closets and are photographed in them - i have always had a soft spot for them. I have a badly worn pair of brown ankle boots (hilarious on a quiet day in the office when i walk across the huge room and all you can hear is the fwappy sound the fringe makes) and the coveted-when-you-were-in-seventh-grade slipper pair that i love dearly so i was intrigued to see j crews version. they have partnered with Minnetonka to make what appears to be identical to their tramper boot but at second glance looks sturdier, with two levels of the fringe and dingle thingys on the ends of the laces and they offer them in the most heart-breaking shade of gray. hello friend.
