These Boots are Made for Walking... by Johanna Wood

My current boots are in a pretty sad state. While I don't subscribe to the "let's buy a brand new wardrobe every season" lifestyle, one thing I generally will spend my dollars on every season is new footwear. As I was unemployed (or as my friend and fellow Craft Mafioso Luca Cusolito likes to say "funemployed") all spring and summer long, I was not in the market for my usual updated Fall boots. I was more in the "wear the same shoes 'til they rot off of your stinking feet" market. That said, my everyday boots have reached their breaking point. The zipper on the left boot is threatening to go at an given moment and the faux leather on both is threatening to crack open in all of the most inconvenient places. Considering the winter we've been having, either of these potential scenarios would be fairly catastrophic, so I've taken the following precautions: 1) wearing my "wet weather" boots as often as possible and 2) carrying a pair of flats around with me "just in case."

As the situation has reached critical status, I've taken this opportunity to put together the following selection of potential replacement candidates using Polyvore. Hmmmm... Decisions, decisions!!!
