Boots (and local traditions)


Here temperatures have dropped during the week


And consequentely my clothings changed!
So, sweater, fake fur collar and ( new ) boots for me...


But it seems I wasn't the most elegant this time!
 Odd guys were wandering about last Sunday


Chatting in their old style costumes


Beautiful  ladies were sitting on the city's benches


And other ladies were having fun together ...


Fashion has drastically changed through the time


and...


nowadays boots can be  so ... tres chic!

Until next week, my dears!

      I often use collars instead of scarves:they are softer and warmer!

    Oh, those ladies in period dress are exquisite! I actually have hopes of making a similar dress. I love the weimaraner dog too!

    Yes, styles have most definitely changed. And you are a very sophisticated example of the current style. You look lovely.

      The print of my sweater is a happy medium between animalier and polka dots. I am glad that you like...

    The local folk in their period costumes certainly look so very grand. Your first foray into Winter is so very elegant Dan, love that fur collar and your new boots are quite the statement. Almost makes me want to repeat Winter.

    Those costumes are beautiful, but can you imagine having to dress like that all the time? No thank you! I like your outfit, even if it does mean cooler temperatures. The boots are beautiful, I love that color.

      Yes, it would be very annoying wearing those dresses every day! To say nothing of the wigs ...

    Dear Dan,
    these boots are amazing. Best in winter is that we can wear our boots, isn't it? But first we enjoy fall. I love your autumnly look.
    This are great pics of beautiful ladies in their gorgeous costumes.

    Oh girl, you have done so well. Love love everything, the top, the skirt, the fur, the necklace (handmade by you again no doubt) and ..... the boots!!!! So on trend you are and so elegant and modern you look. That handbag is new too, isn't it? Beautiful. No brands are given... (secrets?)
    And the elegant ladies in their old costumes... how lovely to see and what a splendid background for your blogpost they make. Yes times have changed.
