The Easiest DIY Boot Toppers Ever!

I don’t know about you, but once I get through the holidays I find myself searching for ways to re-work items in my closet. With a few months of cold sill ahead I am not necessarily looking to add more sweaters, coats and long sleeved articles to my closet; yet I do find myself wanting to inject life back in to what is already there. This is when accessories come in handy, helping me mix up what I already own to achieve a new refreshed look for the months ahead.

Boot toppers to me are like scarves and hand warmers; they serve a purpose by adding warmth and style. Toppers give the look of thick, textured cozy socks but allow your to wear your favorite socks on your feet at the same time. We all know it would be pretty difficult to zip our boots with big ‘ol chunky socks in them not to mention uncomfortable! I think boot toppers balance out one’s outfit when wearing thicker sweaters and coats on top.

Bottom line - boot toppers take your boots from plain to fabulous!

Let’s talk the where and what. You can purchase boot toppers on retails sites such as Zappos and Etsy. If you are crafty you can knit or crochet them on your own or purchase one of the endless patterns available out there. Links to purchase patterns or retailers who sell them are listed on todays blog post HERE. Or, you can try a fun and easy low cost DIY option by using repurposed sweaters or socks.
