'Tis the Season for Boots

Ever since Fall I've been obsessed with boots. Leather, suede, slouchy, buckles, whatever. I love the idea of boots with leggings and skinny jeans. Given that there's a recession going on, I had to suppress my urge to buy a pair of each kind. I convinced myself that I can buy myself a pair of boots that are versatile enough to be "commuter boots". I take the bus to work and I don't like having to walk very far in my heels. So it's be nice to have a pair of cute walking boots that I can also wear for fashion.

Ugg Elijo Boots - $180. I got these on sale for $99 from Nordstrom's! They're warm and comfy but I decided not to keep them because I wasn't sure they were me. Or as my husband says: "Uggs are what California girls wear when the temperature drops below 70 degrees".

The North Face 'Nuptse II' Boot - $79.95. These boots seemed very functional. But I chose not to keep them because they really look like snow/winter boots. I can't imagine wearing them for anything else except commuting.

Miz Mooz Amber Boot - $129. I wished for these for my birthday and my hubby got a pair for me. They look cute one but I read reviews that these were uncomfortable. I really wanted flat boots so I decided to return them.


Steve Madden Tianna Slouch Boot - $89.95 - I didn't pull the trigger on these shoes. They look cute and I love the idea of grey boots. But they're suede! That means I can't really wear them if there's a chance of rain... It's so hard to resist because they're very cute!
