These boots are made for walkin’And that’s just what they’ll do 🎵
Ever since I unwrapped my Christmas gift from hubby, the lyrics of that old Nancy Sinatra song have been going through my mind! Back in November, in this post, I wrote about wanting a pair of warm ankle boots that would be safe and comfortable for winter walking. When hubby didn’t know what to get me for Christmas, I decided to help him out.
This is my third pair of Taxi boots, the other two purchased second-hand. Taxi is a well-established footwear brand developed by a design team based in Toronto, but shipping is now available to customers in the US as well.
My new red boots are water resistant and have durable rubber soles and soft faux fur lining. I added a pair of thermal insoles for added warmth. The outer zipper is purely decorative, but there’s a fully functional inside zipper meaning that I don’t have to adjust and tie the laces every time I wear them! How easy is that?
While these boots are made for walkin’, they’re also stylin’. Though they look great with jeans, I decided to be adventurous and wore them to church on Sunday morning with a sweater dress and leggings. I thought they gave the outfit a slightly edgier look than when I wear it with shoes or tall fashion boots.
Would you wear ankle boots with a dress?

Elaine I love those new ankle boots of yours, they look so stylish in that colour and comfy to wear.
I hope your hubby doesn’t have to much trouble finding the right polish for them and keeping them looking clean for you.
I think I should start looking for polish now before I actually need it. The colour seems to be quite popular right now, so I’m hoping that I don’t have too much trouble finding polish.
Those boots are fantastic! I really like how your paired them with your sweater dress and leggings. So stylish!
Thank you, Beth! I am enjoying them so much.
Most definitely. Still irked with myself for getting rid of a dress a few years ago that I would have worn time and time again over the past months, especially with ankle boots and opaque tights in the winter.
I’ve done that too… gotten rid of something and then wished I hadn’t. Now I tend to put things into storage for awhile before actually getting rid of them. That way, they’re still there if I decide to bring them out again.
I think it was a lockdown move. Obviously not thinking properly at the time.
