Step Into Spring With a Pair of Foldover Boots!

imageIf there’s one thing I can’t get enough of, it’s boots of all shapes, heights, colors, and sizes – and I know I’m not alone! Ankle, mid-calf, knee-high, and over-the-knee – nearly anything goes nowadays when it comes to selecting what’s on-trend so the most difficult task often boils down to which you’d rather splurge on for the season ahead!


But why settle for just one pair (or spend a fortune on multiple pairs of boots!) when you can get the best of both worlds (and transition from winter to spring), thanks to a pair of convertible foldover boots!

Shoe of the Week – Asos Axis Fleece Clog Ankle Boot

imageClogs made a major statement on Fall 2010 runways. Taking inspiration from the traditional wooden heel clunkers, the newer versions are both directional and cutting edge. From traditional low heeled looks to clog boots, they are a ‘must-have’ for die hard fashion followers.


The Asos Axis Fleece Clog Ankle Boot is a fully loaded design that covers almost all of the shoe trends this season.

Tacco Polar Insoles

Line shoes with lambswool to warm feet all winter long
taco-polar3.jpg

Urban living means you don’t always need all the trappings of a technical boot but if your city-slicker shoes are lacking in warmth, you may want to consider the instant coziness an insole can add. While some of my favorites are a pair hand-felted by a family friend, I was lacking time for a crafternoon so I was happy to find these 100% lambswool versions at NYC’s Cowboy Shoe Repair.

Made from cuddly fleece, the wool layer is bonded to a latex rubber layer so that they stay put inside shoes. I’m not sure why Germans excel at foot care products exactly, but the Polar model is one of several that the German maker Tacco offers on their site. Pick it up directly from Tacco’s site for €3 or from Shoe Hardware for $5.

Trend Spotted! – Leopard Print Shoes

imageIt seems like just yester-year that leopard print anything was reserved for the likes of Peggy Bundy and friends. But these last few seasons have been saying differently! Leopard print everything from purses to overcoats have been gracing the runways and hitting store shelves!


Yet, many of us may still be a little timid in trying out this big cat trend in large doses. If those loud leopard leggings just aren’t your thing and that that spotted shawl is too overwhelming, but you still want to partake in this trend, there is a solution! Shoes! (and really … aren’t they the solution to any fashion dilemma??)


Leopard print shoes, be it sneakers or stilettos, adds a funky and daring punch of style that’s eye-catching, but not overpowering. Tired of boring jeans? Leopard flats give them an instant maekover! That LBD is treid and true … but also seen a million times! Add some sexy peep-toes or wedges and re-amp the whole vibe!


A surprisingly versatile shoe look, leopard print kicks are a great way to try this trend for yourself! Click on the slideshow to see our fave picks!

For the ladies, the “Champion Gal Pal” comes in three colors—green, pink and blue—and includes the then-ubiquitous friendship pin ($55).

The “Mondo” shoe for men ($75) keeps it a touch more subdued in black or blue suede, but eye-popping shoestrings and trim speak to a time when fitting in meant standing out.

Both styles sell exclusively online from Keds.
