Thigh High Boots: Recession Edition

By now, everyone probably knows that thigh high boots are a major fall trend.  But there are plenty of us finding it hard to scrounge up the cash for the boots we so badly crave.

Enter thigh high socks, which are just as–if not more– essential than that expensive footwear. Just add the socks with last year’s knee high boots and you’ll get the same sultry effect (which can take a trashy turn real fast, but thats another post for another day).

A few years ago, J. Crew and Prada both came out with ribbed wool thigh high socks– J. Crew’s were $18.50 and the Prada’s were, like, a million dollars. Guess which ones I got? Yep, I wore those J. Crew socks to shreds. No kidding.

And now they’re back. Same price. Same colors, grey and black.  I advise buying both.  In fact, I bought two of each.  Can you tell I’m excited?

    I was reluctant to purchase UGG Classic crochet boots unless I found them on sale, but after trying them on and wearing them for a bit, I woulda payed full-price for these boots.

    These are the most comfortable uggs on sale. I am seriously thinking of buying another pair uggs on sale just in case I wear these ones out. Well worth the money.
