MOMMA NEEDS… snow boots (not for LA)

IMG_0272

There I am in the frigid London snow rocking my Yak boots – sure I look like a polar bear to anyone in the bathroom stall next to me but they keep me warm and dry and that’s what great snow boots are all about!

Following on my post from last week,  I can’t be venturing out to colder pastures without some great snow boots for me and my little guy.  Listen, I have plenty of boots but anyone that has encountered snow before knows that your cute little leather booties aren’t going to cut the mustard.  Snow boots are the real deal – they’ll keep you insulated so that your toots are warm and toasty and they’re water proof so that you don’t have to worry about the slush…  Also very important, they have traction, this comes in very handy on those frozen, icy sidewalks  - we’ve all done the slip and slide show in inappropriate footwear – I’m not doing that again!  Yes, they are practical, but don’t get it twisted, there is also plenty of room for fabulous! You’re not going to ski in these snow boots – these are all about the apres ski moments (aka drinking hot toddies by the fire in cute outfits) which is much more up my street… Or just plodding to work without any unfortunate tumbles…  Check out some of my favorite cool yet practical snow boots to get you through the harshest winter storms or just a fun ski trip!

MOMMA NEEDS… ankle boots for fall – for us and them!

One of the things I get asked all the time is:  “What boots do I need for fall?” I’ve already done my motorcycle boot post (which I love for their timeless style and comfort)  but I really wanted to do a post on my new favorite boot, the ankle boot!  My latest boot purchase is the Rag & Bone Newbury ankle boot.  The heel is high enough to give a polished look but low enough to allow me to comfortably run around town (and after my increasingly speedy toddler).  I love the look of them with skinny jeans and leggings but they can be just as cute with a little dress or skirt (with nice warm tights until the weather changes).  Anyway, I wanted to show a range of options in varying heel heights, silhouettes (Isabel Marant has of course ticked every boot need/want imaginable)and at various price point.  Of course, I couldn’t leave out our little ones, so there are some unbelievably adorable boots for them as well!
