You found your perfect winter accessories including this season's over the knee boots but before you wear them you don't want to get caught in the rain or snow. Speaking from experience, winter-proofing your boots is so important to keep them looking new. Nasty salt stains and snow can do a number on your favourite leather and suede booties.

Even if your boots are slightly older, you can...

I have recently wondered if "multitasking" is another word for "doing many things simultaneously, but poorly". So when a product comes out that takes something off my full plate, I want to jump on it immediately.

Just in time for a yucky start to the wintry season, my inbox is slowly filling up with ads for cozy boots that promise a toned tush simply by wearing them. Is this the cat's pajamas,...

True story.

Today as I was walking down the street approaching an intersection, a drunk man stumbled up to me and announced, "I love your shoes. They're so shiny I - I need to step on them", at which point he lunged at my foot. I moved my foot back but he tried again saying, "I just need to step on them."

I pulled back further and asked him to please not! He paused for a moment uncertainly,...

Maybe I'm just not hip enough, but can someone please explain to me how these are fashionable? Christian Louboutin, shoe god, is taking us down a road I surely don't wish to follow. No word yet on whether these babies will sport a red sole.

And just think: these come on the heels of the news that Crocs may not be in business for much longer. (Happy dance)

Would you wear these? And if so,

Ah, spring. For those of us emerging from the deep freeze to the reality of melting snowbanks and brownish puddles at every street corner, it isn't all butterflies and daffodils.

Splooshing in the City just got more interesting. With the economy casting its own gray pallor on the streets, what's called for is a return to those carefree after-school times. Fun up your boring beige trench...

Finding the perfect boots
Boot shopping is supposed to be fun, but generally it's a huge pain in the butt.  All of the stores carry the same merchandise, the souls are too slippery, heels are too high, the calves are too thin, or there are just too many buckles, bells and whistles.  That's before you even get to looking at the price tag. 

With all of the winter sales, this is the perfect time to find...

Year after year, stylish knee-high boots seem to be only for the slender of leg; choices for curvier gams appear limited to uninspired shiny stretch vinyl or short, below-the-calf heights. If you're a girl in need of tall boots with a roomier fit, though, don't despair. In a determined search for the holy-boot grail this Fall, I've managed to track down a variety of brand names and a...

Perhaps global warming is to blame, but there is an interesting trend popping up on fall 2008 runways; despite cooler weather fast approaching, many designers have opted against the knee-grazing boots of winter. The newest shoe on the runway this season stops just above the ankle, and takes on many forms. It is the perfect shoe to bridge the spring and fall seasons and take us seamlessly into...

Someone needs to invent some heels that are actually made for walking. With 2 1/2 inch heels. That look sexy. I am one of those who would rather be in pain with nice shoes on, than wear flats that make my legs look like thick pegs. Yes we live in North America and flip flops are the universal shoe of summer, but isn't it about time that changed? Can't we step it up a little and at least...
