So, at the end, I got myself a new winter boots. :smile: I ended up getting so sick before new year and it drags even now so before the trip, I just decided to heck with it and stop worrying about the storage later coz after all, this is a matter of health and it's worth every cent! ;) It's not the beauty shiny model since I got the sale ones, but it does the job more than fine. ;) I just want to update you. ;)

:ps:
Safety & health come first! Glad you got some.:heart:

Dog tip--how to stay cozy in January:
steal blankets.

Roll over, to pull from sofa with feet.
Then stay upside-down & adorable.
Fall asleep.
Become immovable--so blanket stays put & humans shake heads, defeated.:winkiss:

Chanel flap and Uggs go very well together, remainsilly. Casual chic.
I once saw a lady wearing a Chanel suit, Chanel bag and Chanel shoes. Awesome! but I prefer mixing styles. Fashion should be fun!:smile:

I bought same size I do for hiking shoes.
But mine are soft suede exterior.

I never cared for the Ugg boots (they pinched in strange places) but I have 2 pairs of Ugg slippers and I simply adore them. So comfy, and particularly cozy on chilly winter evenings.

They run true to size. A little tight, not painful, til the fur/wool smooshes a little bit. Usually takes only one wearing.

Thank you ladies for all your comments!
There is a shoe shop in town that has a few models ( not the rubber boots unfortunately).
I will go and try them on this afternoon and keep you posted.:smile:

I finally went to the shoe shop I told you about this morning, ladies!:smile:
The owner rolled his eyes when he heard I wanted to try on Uggs.
He said he had very few sizes left as the boots sold like hot cakes around Christmas.:sad:
He gave me a 39 European size ( I normally buy size 38 in most brands) but they looked huge on my frame...
I then noticed a slim model which was quite cute but ... not my size and not on sale anyway.
So, no Uggs for me....:sad:
I have a pair of Sorel which I bought a few years ago and never wore...:hrmm:
If things get worse, I am talking about the cold, I might take them out of the closet.:confused1::confused1:

Hehehe--I cannot dress in same brand head-to-toe.
Would cause my creative teeth to itch. And feel as advert billboard.

Sorel are fabulous. :tup:Much better in sloppy weather.
Do not own.:sad:
Once saw girls scooting through London rain in soaked suede uggs. Awful.

Sloppy weather boots. Actually keep feet dry. View attachment 3576175
Best slippers EVER. Oldest DD gave them to me for Christmas. Have been perfect on those super cold nights.
I am ready to wear sandals again however.

I saw this kind of slippers and have to order a pair.:tup:
Sandals? I just can't wait to throw tights and socks out of the window!:nuts:
I saw ladies in high heels and skirts today and I wanted to hide under a stone.
Felt like a ninety years old...:eek:
