Still, there is beauty to be found in the snow peppered air on a quiet street at night time, the clean whiteness of fresh snow, and the brightness of the sun when it decides to emerge and give us a brief respite from grey.

January's Wintery Bite
Winter is back, after a few years break. We have been spoiled with mild ones for a while. The renewed immersion into this biting dry freezing air, slushy slippery roads, salty sidewalks and endless layers of clothing obscuring shapes and faces - a rude awakening.

Men in Skirts - What???
What are they thinking? are there not enough beautiful things you can create for men to wear and just have to copy women?
It's not enough that they have been putting women in boyish clothes, and bodies, to obscure their femininity, now they have to confuse the guys and make everyone look like hermaphrodites?

I love fashion, but this doesn't make ay sense whatsoever, artistic, pragmatic, or beautiful.

Boot Fashion, Boot Passion
I LOVE boots.
There's nothing that says "I'm alive" more than a good pair of boots. To say nothing about how they can make or break your look.
There are boots, and there are boots.
Today the right kind, two new different pairs, are in my window:
This is a special edition JPG (Jean Paul Gaultier, if I must spell it out), laces in front, zipper in the back for comfort:
And this one, by Good Year, half laces in front, half on the side:
