These boots were made for.......standing?

I wear my boots all year long (shorts, dresses, shirts.......really ALL year long), so they are always on full "display" in my closet. Before I learned this little diddy, my storage method was just a pile-o-boots but now, they are always organized and easy to find.

Save up your wine bottles, then just slide them in the boots and stand up......that's it.

There you have it.

Boots that stand up straight so you can take a peek at them instead of digging through a messy pile at the bottom of the closet.

DIY: Over the knee psudo-leg warmers

As a life long sun and summer worshiper, I normally go into hibernation mode in the winter. Resigning my self to dark evenings spent on the couch under a pile of blankets and pit bulls has been the norm. Decked out in only the sexiest of Old Navy and Victoria Secret Yoga pants and old FSU and AXO t-shirts is how you will normally find me after work, on the weekends, or any other time I can get away with it.

But this year I've been making an effort to wear some more attractive clothing this (admittedly mild by most standard) winter.

I've seen TONS of cute leg warmers around on-line, in stores and on Pintrest....of course!!!

I'm intrigued and inspired!!!!!

So warm!!!

So cozy!!

So I rummaged around the sock drawer and picked out 2 pairs of cute shin-high socks (that might I add were all labeled "knee high" when I purchased them) that I haven't worn to often. The grey ones, are actually super sparkly and matched the scarf I was wearing this weekend.

I cut the toes off, pulled up onto my leggings, bunched them up around my knees and ...........TADA!!!!

Surprisingly enough, in an era of myspace.com/self portrait/ mirror picture overload there isn't really an easy or flattering way to take a picture of your own legs and feet......so this was the best I got.

If I can remember, next time I wear them (or the others I cut up to match my brown boots) I'll make sure to have some one take an action shot!!

1. Read 50 books (17/50).

LOVED the 1st and 2nd. I liked the last one as well, but it didn't grab me like the first 2 did. I can't wait for the movie to come out in march!!!!!!!
