And what was I wearing today, at the very moment of reading my own sage advice? Why, my ugg boots. That&#8217;s what!<\/p>\n<p>They narrowly escaped a one way trip to the op shop soon after that post was written. They got all the way to the box by the front door before I relented and put them back at the bottom of the wardrobe. And boy am I glad I did. The next time I came across them was earlier this winter while rummaging for an outfit to wear to a masquerade ball. No, I didn&#8217;t wear them to the ball (can&#8217;t believe you asked), but I did decide I quite liked them again. So snuggly warm, and just the thing to visually balance out skinny jeans, or in my case jodhpurs.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4884\" style=\"width: 470px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.charmedlife.co.nz\/cowboybootsandbrokenfingers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Vita-Sackville-West.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4884\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4884\" src=\"http:\/\/www.charmedlife.co.nz\/cowboybootsandbrokenfingers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Vita-Sackville-West.jpg\" alt=\"Vita Sackville West\" width=\"460\" height=\"690\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.charmedlife.co.nz\/cowboybootsandbrokenfingers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Vita-Sackville-West.jpg 460w, http:\/\/www.charmedlife.co.nz\/cowboybootsandbrokenfingers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Vita-Sackville-West-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4884\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vita Sackville West in jodhpurs and what are surely an early version of ugg boots.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">Well, no sooner had I started wearing them than I&#8217;m seeing ugg boots pop up everywhere.
