JLo is a Louboutin baby, and not even baby – the biggest fan since she made her mind to sing a song devoted to the Louboutin’s masterpiece The Christian Louboutin Paola 100 Ankle Boots.

The boots look really cool, but, frankly speaking, I’ve never thought JLO will be the one worshipping high heels culture. As to me, Posh Spice will be perfect for this role. Yepp, she can’t sign.

As to me, the shoes are terrific (just like the rest of Louboutin things) but I liked Jen in a “my love don’t cost a thing” much more. .

Glam Winter: Valenki – Snow Boots of New Generation?

I’m ready to bet, most fashionable and stylish girls (while reading this title) will exclaim: “What? How it could be? These ugly and boring boots?” And I would like to say – yeah! These boots are really cool.

Story of Valenki

Valenki are traditional Russian winter boots made of felt. They used to be extremely popular and still a prefect symbol of the Russian Federation. Their story started many years ago, the technology of their producing is unique: each valenok is made from a seamless strip of 100% lamb wool. Thus, they are extremely warm and healthy felt boots. They are “bathed” in special acid and then in boiling water and before the final step – drying – they are given a form of a foot.

Valenki are perfect for healing of cold-flu, rheumatic disease. Hairs of wool gently massage feet, make blood circulation much better and take care about immune system. And now, valenki are ideal for cold weather, you’ll stay warm even when it’s 40 degrees C below zero. According to a reliable source, they are more reliable than Swedish or Norwegian ones. Russian valenki were worn by both common people and members of tsar family. Valenki are not waterproof, so most people adore wearing them together with galoshi – special rubber clogs to protect valenki from water, wear and tear.

Many people are against valenki and think they are really ugly. As for me, everybody has the right to express his or her opinion. But, I really like them, valenki are so cute, so touching and warm. No doubts, they are a bad variant for a fashionable party and a glam evening gown, but in Siberia, Alaska, Canada and other more than cold places, hand-made valenki with ornaments, embroidery and decorations, together with a nice scarf and mittens will be a cool combination.
