Personally, I have always struggled with getting my pants tucked in my boots just the right way so that my pant leg looks smooth. Since I don't have a figure that works with skinny jeans, I always have this bulge at my ankles from where my jeans have bunched up. Or better yet, I resort to the 1980's fashion tip of tight rolling my jeans! (Can't believe I just admitted that). However, this presents a bit of an issue when going to a friends house; you are in a mad dash to unroll your jeans as soon as you take your boots off so NO ONE dares see that you actually...tight rolled your jeans! So imagine how excited I was while standing in line at Jo Ann Fabrics last night, staring aimlessly at all the useless stuff they try to get to you buy while you wait for the next available cashier, something that is actually practical and I have a need for!
That's right, boot straps. GENIUS! You cuff your pant leg at the ankle and then slide on these little miracles! They will then hold your pants down when putting on your boots.
I found these at Jo Ann Fabrics, but Bed Bath & Beyond has them for the same price, $11.99. Then if you add one of the 20% off coupons they mail out all the time, you can get these gems for $9.60 plus tax! In my opinion, totally worth it!
Next, Boot Socks. No, I'm not talking about extra thick socks you wear to keep your feet warm when you are wearing boots. I'm talking about the extra long socks that add a little pizazz to your pant/boot duo.
You can get these at lots of different shoe stores, but I like the selection at Amazon.com. They offer many different styles to choose from and for the most reasonable price.
Lastly, here is one that is for the very fashion forward. Boot Toppers. These great detachable accessories you can add to your boots.
These are from this awesome little shop in Hinsdale, IL; Q.T. Gifts and Accessories. This is a great little shop that I just love! They just started their Facebook page which I highly recommend.
I have been to their store and their is so much fun stuff there, I may have to do a post just on all their fun accessories!
Hmmmmm.....
