I’ve been wearing clogs since the age of 12 and I am now 48 years old. If you opened up my closet door you would see at least 30 pairs of different clogs in there. Some I have owned for 15+ years and others I …
Gearing up for hunting season often means getting a new pair of boots. To get the best boots for your hunt, match the footwear’s features with the conditions of your upcoming excursion. You’ll need boots appropriate for the weather forecast, for your activity level, and …
How many of you have heard of the company called Blundstone? I had never heard of them until this review. Blundstone is an Australian footwear company that specializes in work & safety boots and casual boots for the entire family, including the kids!
This Australian footwear company is known for manufacturing high-quality elastic-sided boots, gumboots, lace-up safety footwear, heavy industrial footwear, school shoes and men’s casual footwear. Wow…they pretty much have your family covered in the boot department!
For this review I received the “Stout” women’s boots which feature a genuine premium leather upper with navy plaid tartan elastic goring at the sides. This elastic goring allows you to easily slip the boots on and off your feet without having to mess with laces, zippers or buckles.
They feature a Thermo urethane outsole for improved resistance to hydrolysis and microbial attack. There is a steel shank for torsional stability and a removable foot-bed.
I ordered true-to-size and they fit me perfectly so I would not size up unless you plan on wearing super thick socks when wearing them. One of the things I like about them is the rounded toe area. At my age, I don’t do uncomfortable pointy-toes or tapered-toes any more. The toe area with these boots is absolutely perfect if you are looking for comfort.
Second, I appreciate that they have two handy pull-on tabs (front and back) which makes them easy to pull on. Usually you just see boots that have one pull-on tab but these have two!
The premium leather is as smooth as butter and flexible. I would say that it’s a medium-weight leather which will make these boots very durable. The top-stitching is beautifully done and I appreciate that they didn’t go over-the-top with that. Some footwear today has so much top-stitching on them that it distracts from their overall design.
Finally, I LOVE the outsoles on these boots! I’ve worn them on super wet & slick grass, on wet sidewalks, across a wet tiled floor, etc. and not one time did I slide! They are extremely comfortable and fit your feet securely.
You could wear these boots for work or wear them casually like I will be doing. I like to be outside gardening, hiking, doing yard work, etc. and these boots will be worn a lot this season.
You can learn more about Blundstone and the great footwear and boots that they have to offer by checking out their site online.

It is no secret that we are big clog lovers here at TwoClassyChics. They are by far the most comfortable shoe out there for most people. Great for back and hip support, plus so comfortable for walking. You just cannot beat them for comfort and …
During the Spring, Summer and Fall seasons I spend a lot of time outdoors. You can usually find me outside playing in my garden, doing landscaping work, hiking forested trails or just taking leisurely walks along the river. If given the chance…I would rather be …
Style stars like Rihanna and Cara DeLevinge have proven that 90’s grunge style is here to stay, but the recent “glamification of grunge” trend can be seen popping up on runways from NYFW to Milan Men’s Fashion Week.
The perfect mesh of rugged and refined, the glamification of grunge trend flirts with feminine silhouettes, skirts, and dresses, but with a major twist, combining comfort and performance in way we haven’t seen before.
Timberland’s array of boots and apparel plays right into this current trend!
Recently I was sent a complimentary pair of the Women’s Savin Hill 3-Eye Leather Ankle Boots from Timberland. One of the things I love about these ankle boots is that they can be worn with just about everything in your closet. They look fabulous with jeans, long or short skirts, dresses, slacks, etc. Wear them casually or dress them up for a night out on the town.
They are made out of genuine leather with man-made soles. There are no zippers to mess with and you simply pull them on. If needed you can loosen up or tighten up the laces as needed. I found that once I had the laces set at the perfect place for me…I was easily able to just pull them on and pull them off quickly.
The leather is soft and buttery…not stiff like you see with most other boots out in the marketplace. I really feel that you won’t need a break-in period with these at all, at least I didn’t! The top stitching is perfectly done and I love that the boots are all in one solid color. The soles are flexible and I really appreciate that.
Personally, I like wearing them with my denim jeans and with them tucked underneath the leg. However, my mother borrowed these ankle boots from me and she tucked her jeans in because she wanted to show off the lacing detail. Either way looks great!
Timberland has a brand new collection of leather ankle boots in-stock and ready for your Fall fashion wardrobe. I really love several of their styles and hoping to add a few more to my closet this Fall. Head on over to Timberland and check out all of their fabulous products.

Like most women…I love shoes. All kinds of shoes! If I opened up my closet right now and left you take a peek inside you would see at least 50 different pairs of shoes and boots! With that said, I am very picky on what …
