Sheepskin boots are the flip-flop/thong sandals of cold weather. When you normally see flip-flops/thong sandals during the Summer, you usually see a lot of sheepskin boots worn when it's cold. They are commonly called UGGs, but just like there are other companies that make their own knockoffs of Chuck Taylor Converses, there are MANY other companies that make their own sheepskin boots. Depending upon who you ask, sheepskin boots are either very comfortable and cute, or very UGG-ly and unstylish.
I can understand the comfort of these boots. All the furry detail inside these boots can really keep your feet and lower leg warm on cold days. Many who dislike these sheepskin boots think they (especially UGG-type sheepskin boots) should ONLY be worn at home and not with any kind of outfits. The reason why I call sheepskin boots as the flip-flops/thong sandals of cold weather is that almost every femme seems to have their own pair of sheepskin boots for the cold- just like many have at least one pair of flip-flops/thong sandals for warm weather. What I fail to understand is... why would you pair warm weather clothing with cold weather footwear? For example, what's wrong with THIS picture:

This look, however, is perfectly fine:

--- Why THESE Boots? ---
I think the reason why these boots are more commonly worn than any really chic boots is because of one word- comfort. Since they are so warm to wear when it's cold, these become a hit. A lot of stylish types, however, would rather go with a pair of stylish and chic boots that actually have some style to them. But for lazy days or being around the house, you can't really go wrong with these boots.Here are some examples from Amazon if sheepskin boots tickle your fancy:
Think that's all I have to show you on Amazon? Visit my blog entry on "John's Shop Space" (my alternate blog) to shop for more sheepskin boots on Amazon:

Stay warm when it's cold! These boots are one way to do just that.
--- One Last Note... ---
Hello, people! I've noted that I've started to ease up on the jeans-into-boots look. I'm actually starting to like the jeans/pants-into-boots look, but have hated simply tucking boots into jeans like it's even more unbearably cold than it really is. I've actually started to like when certain leather boots are tucked into pants or jeans. My skepticism for this look does not include wearing capri/flood pants with tall boots (which I've always thought was perfectly fine, even with gaucho pants/culotte pants. So since I've eased up on the look as a whole, doesn't mean I'm COMPLETELY over it. As much as I'm still not completely over thigh-high or over-the-knee boots. So thanks for reading!Follow my blog if you love it (whether with Google Friend Connect or through NetworkedBlogs, subscribe to my blog via FeedBurner, and have a great day! Stay warm!
