This morning I took our in house French designer Raphael to the airport as he ends his journey in Denver. He designed some beautiful fashions, did some custom orders, and got to learn a little English. We’ll miss his quirky energy but I know he’s got a new sense of inspiration and is excited to get back to Toulouse and get back to creating.

While at the airport, I realized that 7 out of 10 women were wearing some form of Uggs.  Whether pairing with sweatpants or cute jeans, they seemed to be everywhere!

To be honest, I always thought that Uggs were kind of ugly.  And it wasn’t until I recently slipped on a pair that I realized, holy moly! They’re not only comfortable and warm, but they’re kind of cute!  I got some black ones for Christmas and had Raf paint them to make them my own.  As I head up the mountains for the New Years weekend, I’m actually thankful to have a pair of comfy warm boots to lounge and relax in.

It’s funny how you can change your mind once you try something on.

What are your favorite pair of boots?
