I just did a search on ebay on fleece insoles and did a search by cheapest (yup) inc p&P. And yesterday when I was at a camping shop I spotted some for £1.99 and if you ever pass by a local market or something, it's the kind of thing they have there. Just cheap and cheerful.

Ooh I LOVE your boucle biker jacket - that look so nice!

I am all set to watch Les Mis on Saturday night with a friend. My 'hubbie' wont do musicals, all the years we lived in London I only ever saw Cats can you believe! I am now patiently waiting for my little boy to be old enough to come with me in the future :-) x

They came up pretty true to size.....I also added thermal insoles just to make them extra cosy. Look nice with jeans.

Sue, where do you buy your cheap sheepskin shoeliners? Thanks :-)

You still look very stylish and well put together even in your wellies. I tend to put a pair of cheap sheepskin shoeliners in my boots - I move them from boot to boot depending on which I'm wearing. To be honest, I should just buy a bulk lot as they were only £2-3 but I've found they make such a difference in terms of keeping your feet warm as they also create distance between your foot and the boot sole.

I can't bring myself to watch Les Mis. It looks too Mis :o(

Ooh, now these Toggi boots are interesting :-) Not too expensive and not very 'snowboot-looking' so much more versatile. Thanks for the link ClaireH! How about sizing? Reviews suggest that they come up small. Did you find this?

Well you got more snow than us down the road Avril, although we've just had a wee snow fall there now, but I would say that's it, I shouldnt be complaining as I have to drive to work in it. I really have to invest in one of them coats for next year. I love that biker jacket too, all I want to so is buy jackets at the min but hopefully we'll not need them in a few months time. (some chance!)

Avril so glad you loved Les Mis....still haven't recovered!!!
You gave me the Wakefield coat( which I wore today sledging) I give you the Toggi Quebec boots (an investment, but your feet will never be cold again and they look lovely!!). C

Good point about liners and insoles. Any tips for finding reasonably priced real sheepskin ones?
I'm very tempted by these made from New Zealand possum fur (the only fur I would ever buy as possums are wreaking such havoc environmentally).
However they are £29 plus p&p. Eeek!

2013-01-21T17:00:26.291+00:00

Hi my dear!! You look really chic and cosy and it sounds like you had a great time in what snow you had! Our snow really settled yesterday but I stayed in the warm, lol! Thanks for the review on Les Mis, I am thinking of going to see it. Love your new boots too, look forward to your forthcoming post on them and your River island boucle jacket looks really lovely, a good bargain for sure! Have a great week ahead! Sharon xx

So true Thea…the wellies are rubbish tho the liners do help. Also, if you can get sheepskin insoles (the real ones) they are great for keeping the cold away from your feet. I agree that it's a lot of money to shell out for boots you'll only wear once every couple of years for a few days! Avril x

Glad you enjoyed too and yes, we're with you on the non closure of the schools…tho it's just started dumping it down so the kids are hoping we'll get a day off tomorrow! Avril x

2013-01-21T15:04:40.415+00:00

You must join our Merrell gang - it's a purchase you'll not regret! As I said in the comment earlier, it's a year round coat, especially if you get the non-insulated one! Avril x

2013-01-21T15:03:31.844+00:00

Hi Sammy, I bought mine at Christmas and honestly, I've worn it year round. I actually wore it loads during all that awful rain we had in July and August. That seems like a good price. I think anything around the £100 sterling mark is great value. Avril x

2013-01-21T14:52:26.056+00:00

Loads of snow here and I froze my toes this morning taking the kids sledging... That's wellies for you - waterproof but no warmth at all. But I can’t bring myself to spend a fortune on snow boots for just a few days a year, so I guess I'll just have to freeze!

Well Avril, you will be more than pleased to know ...

2013-01-21T14:27:34.960+00:00

Well Avril, you will be more than pleased to know that not only is shopping good for you, but wine is as well! I am in the middle of doing some research on certain wines and it's looking good! Actually I have just been on a sales shop this morning, and am adding up the damage, better get that glass of wine before I start.

2013-01-21T09:37:23.168+00:00

Snow has finally arrived here too ... although not enough to warrant closing of schools so The Child is disgusted. I also went to see Les Mis on Sat night. Loved, loved, loved it! Keep warm!

I must have a Merrel for next year. It has started snowing again here today. Hope it goes your way.

Hi. Went to see Les Mes too at weekend. I thought it was brilliant.. I feel like a real theatre buff now! Now back to the merrell coat. I saw one in the sale - down to €148.99 and wondering am I too late this season to jump on the bandwagon?
