How’re you fairing in the snow and ice? I’m so unbelievably glad I got my biker boots in December, money very well spent. Despite the weather I’ve still been trudging to work every morning, even through the blizzards, and I owe it all to my boots. Without them I would have gone arse over tits several times this week… especially this morning.

It’s ridiculous, though, I’ve seen so many people wearing pathetically inappropriate foot wear. Come on… high healed suede shoes? not only are you gonna cause a scene when you pirouette into a broken ankle, but your shoes will be fucked too. Salt marks, anyone? It’s not that hard to find appropriate footwear, even if you just wear some walking boots for that walking about thing and switch to pumps when you’re inside. Not many people will look at you in the street like ‘ew… srsly, why is that girl wearing gripping shoes?’ You’re 100% more likely to make a fool of yourself by not wearing something suitable for the snow, fact.

I digress, my boots are fabulous. They cost all of £30 in the office sale (as opposed to an equivalent pair at £85… IN FACT you can now get them for just £10 so I just got another pair for when these ones die!) and I haven’t taken them off my feet. I’ve treated them, too, bought them new insoles and some lovely blackening wax ♥

What have you been wearing in this weather? If you say uggs, I’ll hunt you down.
