Okay, sure, Ped has relocated to sunny Santa Barbara, but that doesn’t mean I don’t remember how chilly November days are in other parts of the world. In fact, I kind of long to put away my flip-flops and slide my legs inside a beautiful pair of boots—that’s one of the best things about fall and winter. The boots come out of the closet and go out for a walk!

This season Ped has some truly spectacular boots in stock. (I went a little boot crazy at the shoe shows!) First up, we’re carrying a new line, Coclico, which has designed the boot I’ve wanted my whole life but didn’t find until now:

Let me tell you, this boot—the Mick—is made of the most wonderful leather that allows you to either scrunch it down or pull it up to full height, depending on your mood. It’s minimal, but its lines and spare details are perfectly executed.

Perhaps you prefer a super-sexy heeled number? Then Chie Mihara’s got you covered. How sizzling is this:

Zing! Zip Chie’s Zom up, and, instantly, you look like a million bucks!

On the other hand, you might be an earthier gal who likes a little Euro-style with your comfort. How about these beauties from Trippen then:

Oh, and lest we forget, we are so psyched that Cydwoq is venturing into making full-length boots. I was so wowed by this pair in the Vintage line that I had to have them for myself!

Flip-flops are seriously overrated!

With all that walking around Paris, I couldn’t believe that my feet didn’t hurt!! Of course, I wore my trusted Cydwoqs and Trippens (cool with funky socks if it’s cold). I never go on a vacation without one or two pairs. Trust me!! I walk ALOT. Also, be sure to wear a bag across your body – my Orla Kiely came in very handy for my tour guidebook, map, water, wallet, and big enough for some purchases !
