Friday Find: Lumi

I'm not sure how the weather is where you're from - but here in Victoria fall is sneaking in! The mornings are extra dark and crisp and it's time to start layering up! I'm sure the rainy winter season will be here before we know it, so in preparation I'm searching for ways to park up my fall wardrobe. No better way to survive the wet winter than with a good ol' pair of boots and some new boot cuffs are a great way to add some warmth, colour, and texture to any outfit! Just check out these cute teal ones from Etsy's Lumi:

I'm sure the colour may be swaying my judgement on these, but boy oh boy are they ever cute! I also really like the idea of wearing cuffs over my socks and tights instead of full fledged giant handmade boot socks because if you're legs are anything like mine - there isn't an enormous amount of room left in my boots once my calves are in there! Oh my! Lumi has a whole bunch of fun crochet goodies in her shop so if you aren't the cuff type, there's lots of other nice wooly textured  handmade treasures to keep you warm this fall! Hooray! Anyone else stoked for autumn to arrive?

  1. I wish I didn't have mamoth calves...OH! I found boots in Kamloops! AND they were still cheaper than that sale pair with slouchy ankles. (these slouch in all the right ways!)

  2. Those boot cuffs are GENIUS!!!

    I can barely wait for fall to officially arrive in Kelowna. My favourite season can never come soon enough :)

  3. They look so awesome! If I ever manage to find boots that go over my massive calves, I will totally be rocking this look! ~_^
