Necessity Is The Mother Of Invention

Sweater - Gap; Dress - H&M; Belt - F21; Tights - Hue; Boots - Threadsence; Leg Warmers - Legs Beautiful.

I don't have snow boots.  I should, I live in Canada after all where the snow falls and the temperature drops below what I consider human.  But I don't.  And it's not because I'm too cool for them or anything.  It's because two winters ago mine died.  Then last winter I was pregnant and didn't want to spend a ton of money when I wasn't sure what my feet were doing *feet can change size during pregnancy* This winter...well let's just say there's been some belt tightening 'round these here parts.

So I made a thrown together, DIY pair.  What are snow boots?  Waterproof boots with a warm lining.  So I  took a  loose pair of boots that's waterproof, put on warm legwarmers and shoved it all into said boots.  And voila!  Snow boots!  These will do until looser pants reign supreme.

p.s.  I'm writing over here today about the trials and tribulations of blog/website design.

  3. I don't own snow boats either. I like your idea of making your own. Much cuter!

  4. I live in Colorado and I don't own any snow boots either. I love this look on you! The skirt and the belted sweater are a great pair with the boots and knee socks!
