Perhaps I have been talking about this too much, but it really is what's on my mind right now. Staying warm while looking good! These boots are some of my favorites right now. Top row, from left to right: L.L. Bean // Tretorn // Hunter. The L.L. Bean duck boots are perfectly preppy and would look great paired with your favorite jeans and gingham shirt. These Tretorn lace ups are on my wish list right now. Love that they are safe to wear in the water but have that wedge to add a little jump in your step. The Hunters are a classic and must have as far as I'm concerned. The hard part is just picking the color!! Bottom row: all Sorel. This brand is the perfect blend of some serious function and style. If you are trekking around the Midwest right now, these are your guys. Companies like Free People and Anthropologie even think they are the bee's knees.
