Women's Mid Calf Fur Lined Outdoor Walking Snow Boots

Recently, watching the award-winning movie "Society of the Snow" made me think deeply about what I should be wearing when flying. I asked myself, "What would be an appropriate outfit if you have to be on a flight?" In case of emergency, it is best to be prepared. I won't be going somewhere snowy soon, but I believe it is necessary to dress right if you're going for a cold-weather adventure. I'm not just talking about climbing on icy slopes. For instance, you can wear BJ boots if you are going outdoors during colder months.

Those boots are waterproof ankle snow boots. What's great about them is that they protect the foot while keeping it warm. Plus, they are comfortable to wear. And if you're into fashion, which I know most of you who read my blog are, don't worry; you can easily style them.

For those of you who will be enjoying some snow, I believe you must check if your winter boots are still good. I'm no expert, but I know proper footwear during the cold season is paramount, especially when temperatures go low. High-quality winter boots will protect your feet from frostbite and keep your feet dry. I mean, who wants to have their feet soaking wet? Not me.

Winter boots can be worn as everyday footwear if you are also one of those who live in cold climates. They are a practical and necessary part of your wardrobe. Hence, you have to look into the material of your footwear regardless if they are pricey or if what you have are affordable winter boots. Boots with sawtooth rubber outsole are great choices since they have warm faux fur lining. They are also known to increase traction, giving you comfort, especially if you will be walking for extended periods.

Depending on the brand you choose, winter boots can be expensive, but they are great investments. When shopping for a pair, consider your specific needs and the activities you have in mind. That way, you will narrow down the type of pair you need.

I've been listening to classic songs since I discovered that Air Supply will have a concert in our city. Apart from my favorite jazz music, I've heard some that mirror the glamour of the roaring twenties. All the sounds and beats got me thinking of my current fashion style. It inspired me to sport some retro-inspired pieces in my daily outfits, with vintage shoes for women leading the way.

What I love about vintage shoes, regardless of whether they are classic Mary Jane shoes, which I super love or colorful leather shoes, is their undeniable charisma. They look effortlessly chic and classic, alleviating the overall look of anyone who wears them. I also love how they evoke an adorable sense of nostalgia in someone's look, which can be styled easily and endlessly. Don't you love it when you can wear and style your shoes in many ways? I do!

How do you style vintage shoes? I love pairing them with fun socks and shorts, skirts, or dresses. I choose those with a bit of heel. I love wearing heels, and I'm so happy that most vintage shoes for women have them. This is one of the reasons why I'm also checking out a variety of them. Although I've mentioned that I have a thing for Mary Janes, I'm also falling deeper in love with Platform Heels and Kitten Heels.

Authentic vintage shoes are a bit pricey, but we're now extra lucky since a number of online shops and boutiques now sell more affordable versions. Just be sure to check if the materials being used are sustainable and worth the money. The best thing about opting for authentic vintage shoes, though, is that you are contributing to the sustainable fashion industry. All you need to do is care for your shoes properly to prevent any signs of wear and tear.

Whether you're a seasoned collector or a simple gal looking to try something new, vintage footwear is a treasure for every woman.

The winter months are now here, which means winter is coming in some parts of the world. I live in a country with a tropical climate, but we also enjoy a great amount of rain over the next few months until the first chapter of the year. I’m not sure how others stay comfortable during the cold weather, but I do it with my good old cardigan and my squishy fluffy slippers boots at home.

I’m such a fan of my fluffy slippers because they provide my feet with the comfort that I need. Plus, I got one with a very cute design. It’s not that special, but it makes me happy. Anything that makes us happy is worth keeping, right? Those who will be enjoying a winter wonderland will also love it. I mean, who does not love the feeling of soft, fluffy footwear?

I personally think ladies fluffy slippers are wonderful foot companions and must be a staple in every woman’s wardrobe. Why not, right? Any lady of any age can rock them, whether at home relaxing or running errands. You may think they are just for function, but there are available ones in the market today that are sleek and fashionable. I have seen some that can be styled, whether you are dressing up or dressing down. They can also be worn according to one’s style preference. Whether it is maximalist or minimalist, I believe there’s fluffy footwear available.  However, I want them to be edgy or cute since these two reflect my style. Still, comfort and quality must also be in mind.

Some of the things that I think about when shopping for footwear are material, sole, and style. When I was much younger, I only thought about how trendy my footwear was, but now, I’m into something I can wear many times and that can last me long. For fluffy slippers, faux fur or velvet are excellent materials since they are naturally warm. Also, is it just me, or is their texture just something to die for?

I also check the soles of my footwear. I want to make sure they provide me with the proper traction and support. Most of all, I want any piece that goes into my wardrobe to mirror my style, and I think that goes for everyone. Our clothing, whether purses or shoes, must make our hearts happy!

Do you love fluffy slippers and boots, too? What are some footwear essentials do you know for winter?

I have to be honest. I only thought of shapewear once I ventured into the corporate world. The undergarment isn't exactly new to me since I have seen my mom wearing it on special occasions when I was a little girl. I have noticed, though, that my mom would wear them on special occasions and always looked more beautiful wearing them. Not to mention sexier!

Today, I have a couple of nude and black shapewear, which I now find a good wardrobe investment. While I can't speak for other women, wearing it makes me feel confident and empowered. If it has something to do with the illusion that I lose some pounds by wearing it, maybe it's how its magic works for me. I love that wearing shapewear immediately gives me that feminine silhouette, which is its one significant advantage.

Every woman's hourglass figure will complement one's casual attire or sexiest dress when worn with the correct shaper, something instantly attainable without dieting or visiting a cosmetic surgery. Don't we all hate dieting? Just kidding! Knowing its advantage on my part, I plan to add more shape-wear variants to the two that I currently have. I am also looking for different styles apart from the usual ones we see. Hence, I took the liberty to look around online for available and affordable shapewears. Lo and behold! Fortunately, I've found some, and they go in my cart!

Anyway, guys, where do you mainly shop for clothing these days? In a boutique or a shopping center? I hate to admit it, but I do shop online these days. I find it very convenient, especially when working around the clock. Below are some of the best I've found, and I hope my humble list can help you, too, if you're also looking for one.

First on my shopping cart is this body shaper faja tank top made of breathable fabrics. What I love most about this is that I can easily fit this for my everyday wear, and that it is so comfortable. I also admire its durability. The whole thing has a corset fitted with steel bones. This keeps my baby fats hidden, giving me that flawless hourglass silhouette.

There are days when I feel lazy to do my usual stretches and walking. To keep my tummy in control, I would love to wear this panty faja control abdomen shaper. I love the best sellers from Faja as they vary in range, style, and sizes for every woman. Their tummy control shaper is excellent on social occasions, especially those that require us to wear figure-hugging dresses.

Lastly, I've been eyeing their lace classic daily butt-lifting panties, which are functional and oh-so-pretty. If you have read some of my fashion blogs, you'd know how much I admire laces. I promise it's one of my favorite fabrics. I love how it makes anyone look instantly feminine and formal. Plus, anyone can wear this with a skirt or jeans. I can't wait to style this one.

How about you? Do you plan to purchase any body shaper soon? Remember, you can't control everything in life, but you can manage your waist and tummy with high-quality body shapewear.

The start of the year is the ideal opportunity to update your wardrobe. If you live somewhere far from the tropics and enjoyed plenty of snow last December, it's time to get rid of those bulky boots, scarves, and sweaters that have been accumulating in your closet all winter. Spring might be just around your horizon, while here in the Philippines, we will be enjoying summer real soon.

To remain relevant this year, you can swap them out for something current. In this manner, you can present your best self for all upcoming occasions, including parties, dates, and activities, making a positive impression on everyone you encounter. Aside from that, buying the proper wardrobe items could help you improve your entire attractiveness.

Here are some pieces that can instantly revamp your 2023 wardrobe without shelling so much cash out of your bank account.

Classic Pieces

Little black dresses and white button-up shirts are examples of classic pieces as opposed to passing trends that could become outdated after a few months or years. You can build a versatile capsule wardrobe with a little amount of mixing and matching that works for any event or season.

A black, plaid, or any neutral-colored blazers will always come in handy no matter what year it is. Also, be sure to have one in different fabrics if you will be traveling a lot this year. Going somewhere colder? A well-made blazer made of wool might be just what you need.

Quality Underwear

You don’t have to splurge on designer brands to look great. Instead, you can put an expensive look by adding quality underwear and a long sleeve shapewear bodysuit in your wardrobe. A lot of us don’t put too much detail on our underwear as long as they're comfy, but knowing its full potential can elevate your look. Good undergarments will not only make you feel comfortable as you get through your day but it can also boost your confidence as it hides away unwanted bumps and bulges in your outfit. In turn, you’d look more polished. This is really helpful especially if you are wearing lighter fabrics and sporting a professional look.

After a couple of mind-boggling years during the pandemic, people will surely enjoy a lot of parties this year. Expect a lot and prepare for it as face-to-face interactions are increasing. Who knows, a friend or two will be inviting you this month for a formal occasion. In that case, you might be wearing long gowns or figure-hugging dresses. For such types of clothing, shapewear bodysuits will be your best friends.

Pop of Color

While monochromatic clothing will continue to be popular, you can experiment and add exciting pops of color to your wardrobe. Consider how you might incorporate various red, blue, and yellow hues into your attire. You might feel more confident after wearing these hues. You might be keen to experiment with new appearances in 2023. For instance, it would be advisable to get a pair of caramel pants if you saw them because they would match nicely with the majority of your tops. You might also use a vivid blue coat to give your outfit choices more visual oomph. Just one or two colorful pieces will do; you don't need to use a lot.

Whether you are heading for a minimalist or embracing a whole new pop of rainbow and trends in your wardrobe this year, make sure that you love every piece. It also wouldn’t hurt to invest in something that you can re-wear time and again or mix and match with your existing clothes. Fashion trends come and go so knowing a thing or two about what’s hot is also a great idea. If there’s something basic such as a waist trainer that you haven’t added to your closet yet, this year might be the best time to have them. 

The older I get, the more I realize that less is more in all facets of life. Growing up, like most teens, I faced the pressure of who had the most friends and the best clothes. As the years went on, I quickly came to realize none of that mattered. At this stage in my life, I realize it’s quality over quantity, and I’ve been happier than ever since I started living by that mantra. Although I have not integrated it in all aspects of my life, I am proud of the baby steps and small wins that I have accomplished. 

I am not saying that I will completely avoid trendy items.However, I am aware that curating a closet full of timeless pieces that inspire me to be my best self is both significant and beneficial to me. Ahead are the pieces that I'll wear more as I enter a new decade of myself real soon. 

1. Blazer

A quality blazer is truly the only option. A layer over any outfit makes it feel finished. It's one of the things I reach for most frequently year after year. Blazers are among the best items to invest in for quality, and these are some of the best. 

 2. Loafers

Although loafers have always been fashionable, the environment in which they are worn varies frequently. The traditional black leather loafer, which is no longer a work shoe, can be worn just as much as a traditional pair of black Converse. Really, they are that adaptable. 

Loafers are chic, cool basic shoes that will never leave style. Due to their timeless element, I try to buy a pair with the intention of them being one of my most worn shoes. This means they need to be basic enough to make sure they are not trendy. Yet they ought to be cool enough to raise my clothes. 

3. Tote Bag

Tote bags are not only easy to style, but they’re practical for everyday wear and can fit all of your necessities. An everyday tote is a must-have accessory for anyone in their 30s who works from home or commutes to work every day.You can use your tote from the gym to dinner with friends every day if you pack it with your planner, a water bottle, or anything else you might need.

4. Black Dress

A decent black dress can take you from the office to the office party, from client meetings to cocktails and the boardroom to the ball. Or just to dinner on a date! What used to symbolize mourning, is now an ageless, classless, and timeless item of clothing. If you want to look sexy, laidback, chic, classy, or all of these, you'll have it with your black dress. In my case, I wouldn't choose something so little or too lengthy. Something that hits a little above the knee and would accentuate my curves in the right places would be best for my wardrobe. 

5. Denim Jeans

A good pair of jeans with a relaxed, vintage feel can do anything, and these are the most adaptable type of denim.Finding a pair that fits you well, won't stretch out during the day, and you enjoy putting on is worth the effort. 

Pair it with your favorite jeans and white sneakers

     This must be the classic and the most common way of styling a tee. I mean, some would even call this basic but I'd like to call this clean. No unnecessary fabrics just you and your tee and white sneakers. What I love most about this look is that I could literally sport this almost everywhere and can easily pull this look together especially if I'm running out of time. Plus, I could easily spice up this look by throwing on some minimalist accessories or my simple black bowler hat. 

     My foot is now fully-healed and my experience taught me how important it is to wear appropriate and comfortable footwear. Having this in mind, I have here three of the recommended footwear for ladies which have proven to be comfortable. This includes the ones I've found at shelivo, an online shop that sells various clothing and footwear online. 

1. Sandals with Cushion and Arch Support

    First on my list is comfortable wedge sandals. This is because I find sandals easy to wear, and also sensible in most places. Even most workplaces these days allow the use of sandals for their employees. This includes the office where I am currently working for. Sandals are also easy to maintain and could last longer depending on how you care for the footwear. 

     I recently went shopping for a comfortable sandal, and the sales lady gladly walked me through the best ones I could find. I noticed that the ones she recommended have cushion lining in them and durable arch support. Looking into these things, I found that those refer to a corrective device worn in the shoe and so molded as to provide support for the natural arch of the foot. Not all footwear is created equal so if you want to have the most comfortable shoes there is, best consider those that have such support. 

2. Sneakers

      Anybody who doesn't have a pair of sneakers should have one. I believe this is something we can all agree. Sneakers are one of the most versatile and comfortable footwear there s that we could wear almost everywhere. Plus, sneakers are easy to style and its classic look makes them instantly elevated even when you're just sporting your regular shirt and jeans combo. If you're not a fan of heels, sneakers are better choices for you compared to wedge sandals.

3. Combat Boots

     I know there are a lot of comfortable shoes out there that we can consider, however, I'll stop at these three for now. The third and the last comfortable footwear on my list are combat boots. It's no wonder why it's the choice of footwear for military men. While it may take you longer to wear them, as long as you got one that's in your size, you could literally do anything while wearing your combat boots without leaving them behind. P.S just a quick trivia though, the most expensive shoes I have to date was a pair of combat boots from Dr. Martens. It was quite pricey but boy, how I felt invisible while wearing them! My imaginative mind also tells me that those would be my footwear of choice if I'd be running away from zombies. lol
