The weekend dumped another snowstorm on the city. While I enjoy snowy strolls, I'm not a fan of the slip-sliding or shoe ruining that comes with it. That's why, roughly between say December 1st and April 30 I pretty much only sport snow boots outdoors. My beloved Coach pair has a cost per wear of probably a penny by this point. And while I'm not looking to replace them, an incident I witnessed this weekend inspired this cute boot round up {female exits a cab, steps into a snow bank while wearing stiletto's, loses a shoe and stands there freezing, balancing on one foot while her friend tried to find it.} And I had to ask myself, just why? when there are so many cute boots out there. Now get out there and snow safely & (stylish!)
Love the image you've put together here ~ and I'm in total agreement, when you live in a location like snowy Chicago, you need cute boots to beat the weather at its games. :) And I like your reference to cost per wear here, because boots really are a very practical fashion purchase in this case!
ReplyDeleteI really need to invest in a quality pair of winter boots - these are all great!

I LOVE my Joan of Arc Sorel boots! :-)
ReplyDeleteCould not agree with you more. I wore my Sorels all weekend and albeit they are heavy...they are so worth the investment!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you on this snow safely and stylishly. It's not easy, but I've found a few good pairs after all my years at Syracuse.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness–too funny! I'm devoted to my Bean Boots whenever the weather gets bad!
ReplyDeleteOh jesh! A girl after my own heart. With all of the snow here in the mitten I could go for a pair of these :)
ReplyDeleteDepending on the outfit choice, a great pair of quality winter boots such as this could be a fun and chic statement ;)

Ha ha. I just bought Sorel boots and they're so warm!
ReplyDeleteI wish I needed snow boots! These are cute.
ReplyDeleteoh those are SO cute. I love the last three the most, adorable!!
ReplyDeleteI wear something like this here but only to work in the morning so they're very old and not too cute. Perhaps I will change them up when I live in your city :)
