I agree with my sister. Boots over jeans have always been the norm in some way in areas where it's cold 5-7 months out of the year. We've had accumulated snows over a foot as early as October and as late as May, so, yeah, boots - of all different styles - are part of most women's wardrobes - from toddlers to senior citizens.

Styles of boots may change, but the act of wearing them? Never. And given that most boots are brown or black, usually made of leather/suede/animal skin of some sort. Lastly, anything more than a few inches of snow can ruin your hems with salt and sand, and making them soggy.

So I can't see any combination of color/fabric/length ever going completely away. Honestly, being safe on my feet, having breathable but warm fabric, and keeping my clothes from being ruined is much more important than if something is trended out half a season ago.

Hi guys!!

30 or so minutes until I meet with my Rho Gamma!! I didn't get a call last night so, PHEW.

I'm so nervous but I did my hair, brushed my teeth, and I'm trying to swallow down some breakfast. Today's going to be a long day! 9am to 9:50pm (if you have all 8 houses). But even if you don't, it'll be equally exhausting.

Okay, as you can tell I'm super nervous. Thanks for all the good wishes...they've been working so far!

[Hoosiermama]

Best wishes BEG! This is bringing back memories of my daughter's recruitment. High highs, lows lows but eyes on the prize and an open mind and it can all work out in the end! Really enjoying your story and the memories! Open mind is the key-keep it coming!

[AOII Angel]

Have fun, brighteyedgirl!

Typically I stay out of these threads until the end. Not this time. I send you all the positive energy I can muster, brighteyedgirl, and I'm holding my breath until you're finished. It only takes ONE bid. Best of luck!

That's the point. Many of the boots we are talking about keep you anything but warm or "safe on your feet."

^^^Oh my!! those make my feet hurt just looking at them.

They are talking more like riding boots-flat boots like this, probably:

Sorry, not clever enough to be able to post the picture.

I've seen all heel heights here - from the scary stilettos I posted to the flat ones. Boots aren't a fashion trend. Skinny jeans tucked into brown boots is.

Good Luck to you and hoping your dreams come true with recruitment!
