New Boots!

One of the benefits of living in a cold, snowy place is that one needs boots.  A variety of boots is always a good idea. I mean, seriously, weather conditions vary considerably and every woman should have several pairs of boots.

I have my practical red boots from Land's End, which are warm and have a super non-skid bottom.  One slip on the ice was all it took to convince me that this feature was necessary.  I have a pair of black lace-up Blondo's for dress-up.  For as dressed up as I ever get, these are good enough.  I've had both of these boots for a few years, so I could not find photos of them on line -- not to worry, it would not be exciting anyway.

What IS exciting however, is this pair of boots.  No, they're not really warm and I have my suspicions about the gripiness of the sole, but hey, they are gorgeous!

Am I stylin', or what??

If you are at all interested in shoes and boots (who isn't?) you must check out the El Naturalista website.  Their styles are wonderfully different and the color selection is incredibly fun.

Sometimes I Dream ....

.... about wearing shoes like these, or even needing shoes like these.

But my lifestyle is such that I do not need shoes like those.  Ever.  Instead, I wear shoes like these.  And that's for my dress-up days.

Working at home, I usually wear shoes like these around the house.  They're super comfy, almost slipper-like.

This time of year, my time outdoors requires these exact shoes.  Yup, XtraTufs.  This short version is affectionaly called the Alaskan Sneaker.  Sexy, huh?

Such is my life in the rainy Alaskan summer.  Maybe someday I will need shoes like these

A girl can dream, can't she?
