Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow!

So last weekend, as I trudged through the snowdrifts in upstate New York while planning both my summer wedding (yay!) and some future, hypothetical snowboarding/skiing weekend, I became acutely aware of the need for snow boots. I don't know about you, but even though I got my suede Michael Kors wedge boots at a consignment store, I don't really like plunging them into unknowable depths of murky gray slush. Call me crazy. And then today I woke up, got dressed for the gym, and emerged into the cold only to find a veritable blizzard (for New York City standards, anyway). Clearly winter is not going away. And so: snow boots!



Unfortunately my top pick, the weirdly fashionable (and weirdly likable) Sorel Caribou boots, are nowhere to be found (in my size, anyway), and hell if I'm gonna venture out into the white to find 'em.

Instead, I got these:



Sorel 1964 Pac boots, $79.99 but $63.99 with handy-dandy coupon code BFF09, which takes 20% off any shoes.com purchase. They'll get the job done, and I need to lay off the purple, anyway.

Of course now it's afternoon, and the sun is shining. Grumble grumble!
