no I don't use my trousers! I just would have thought you'd get them with the accomodation linen.

such touching faith! And a nice big wicker basket of soft toilet rolls too?
I'm not a tidy or houseproud person but I do have a bit of a "thing" about the bacterial content of yer average kitchen cloths, especially where 6 people are sharing a shed sized apartment with one loo. Hence I get through quite a lot of tea towels.
Those boots are nice - having eyed up the range at http://www.purefootwear.co.uk/src/SOREL/sorel-joan-of-artic-boot-prod31109/ I shall go to T K Maxx and find some for £17.99. I actually have an excellent goretex type pair with hinged crampons in the sole - but they're nothing like as pretty. And they've done 5 seasons already!

I'm the eternal optimist, clearly.
I like the look of those Joan of Arctic ones as well. They would be the same as the others under jeans, but look nice with a skirt & woolly tights too. Have you ever seen them at TKmaxx? That would be a top find.

No, but I'm an eternal optimist.... except where experience (as in the renting of under-equipped French apartments with NO linen at all) has sadly taught me otherwise.

Shimmy Alcott, dont go buying those ugly boots - you're a lady not a mountain shep farmer! UGG's if you have to (you're in Cheshire so surely they come with your CTax bill?) but not those other polish builder type monsters.

Nadenoodlee, can't stick UGGs, sorry if I'm letting the side down.
The Sorel ones are dainty compared to my present Columbia ones

Shimmy Alcott, I don't like them much either.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Shimmy Alcott, I am anti ugg! I have some furry suede boots that I bought in Belfast way back when and I LOVE THEM - total crap in the snow though as they get soaked through
I bought a pair of Ugg Cardy's - never even got them out of the box - they've now been donated to my mother

I've never liked the look of UGGs - they remind me of slopping round in a dressing gown. But I went even further off them after my med student niece (a mature lady of all of 24) told me that the school leavers on her course wore them all the time even in the dissecting room. 'Swy they're called UGGs I suppose.

You know it makes sense.
|
It always makes me laugh when you see chavettes wearing fake Uggs. The boots are sooo good, they've sagged and collapsed, leaving said chavette actually walking on the side of the boot, and not the sole.

If (not that I would of couse) I had a pair, and they started doing it, I'd bin them and wear something else that was up to the job. Which is why I wear Dr. Martens with my suit.

Ugg slippers are amazing though. Mr firebug has a pair, he calls them his supermodel slippers.

Winter Fitflops far better than Uggs
Sorels absolutely superb quality though, son is on his second pair of Super Troopers as they were so fantastic last year. I might be tempted myself!

Uggs?? Too soggy! Boots du choix round here are Sorel Caribou
or visvim if you're a squillionaire

How come the expensive boots looked rubbish compaired to the ( relatively ) cheap one's?

Take a knuckle duster for aggro with the locals-especially if England are playing a footie match and lose.

Which is what they are intended for - ask any Antipodean.
Feets-wise, I recommend Timberlands. But since I only ever wear those, Converse or flipflops I am probably not really qualified to be giving sartorial advice to the female shoe-buyer.
