Booting Out Bad Weather

November 14, 2007

It is still pretty warm here in Phoenix. Actually, it's ridiculously warm for mid-November. (The high today was 86!!!). But, I am not giving up on cooler weather quite yet. I keep telling myself, "it's right around the corner." I hope I'm right but, in the meantime, I'll try to find solace in the multitude of grand boots that are permeating fashion right now. And, I'm crossing my fingers that by wearing these cooler-weather inspired gems, I can will Phoenix's temperature to drop by 10 degrees. Wish me luck! :-)
