Tuesday Shoesday: Sorel Slimpack

I’ve talked about Sorel a couple times here. I have no shortage of love for the classic brand (my friends will attest to that).  When I lived in Utah, I wore my Joan of Artics and Tivoli Plaid pair almost daily during the winter.  R recently surprised me with a pair of the tall Slimpacks and I couldn’t love them more.

sorelslimpackOn sale right now on Sorel (not many sizes) for $156 also on Zappos for $165.

They have the classic Sorel rubber base perfect for sloshing through rain or snow, but the grey (or tan) leather shaft lends itself to street wear as well.  Plus a bit of a heel makes you stand up straighter to strut your stuff.  These will for sure be in heavy rotation this spring.

Apres Ski

Yesterday I shared my ski picks, so today I’m sharing my apres ski picks. Post ski-day, it’s all about comfort and warmth while layering. My picks include the Icebreaker base layer, a J.Crew flannel, Columbia vest that has removal fur/hood, a Discrete beanie that can be worn slouchy style or not, Zella leggings, and Smartwool socks.And most importantly – Sorel boots. My go-to for any winter day, they’ll keep your feet dry and warm.

I would top the look with my favorite Pur Cashmere tissutissu scarf.

But, don’t expect to play it with your grandparents, it can be a little inappropriate.

And of course, my favorite post ski day drink (besides Champagne) is the Hot Apple Pie.
Here is my recipe, which cuts a few calories off the original:

Warm your mug with a little hot water and then:
– 1.5 oz Tuaca
– 1/2 packet of sugar free apple cider mix and top with hot water
– dallop whipped cream and sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg
