If you know me at all, you know I love a good pair of boots.

   Short boots, tall boots, cowgirl boots, rain boots....you name it, I'll wear it.  But the only problem is that boot season is so short!  Summer never seems to last long enough and September will always find me trying to drag it out as long as possible by wearing sandals until my toes start to freeze.

   By the time I admit defeat and drag my boots out of hibernation, there hardly seems enough time to wear them before sunnier skies start come around!  Not that I would ever complain about the arrival of spring, but when you finally find the perfect pair of tall brown boots, you just want to wear them the whole year through.

   Hence....

  And for those of you nay-sayers out there that adhere to rules like "Don't wear white after Labor day" and "Boots are for fall/winter" I have one thing to say to you.....who makes these rules anyway?  And why do we care?  That was two things.  Anyways.  And if you're still on the hunt for the perfect pair of tall brown boots regardless of the season?  Find these beauties at a Coastal Farm & Ranch store near you!

   My theory is that any item that you truly love and are comfortable in can be adapted to fit any season.  In my humble opinion.  And besides, springtime out here in Oregon doesn't always feel like springtime.  The rain comes and goes constantly, leaving the ground perpetually wet and squishy, and even on days when the sun is shining bright and warm, there will often be a cool breeze that makes you thankful for tall boots and denim jackets.

   So to make your favorite tall boots spring-friendly, just make sure the rest of your outfit is light and airy. Florals, pastels, light cardigans and floaty scarves all achieve the purpose of a little bit of layer and warmth when needed, but also still looking like spring has sprung.
