Ankle boots and anything black are style mainstays for me, especially as the chill of January sets in. When Marimekko asked me to create a style story inspired by their new spring/summer collection, I knew exactly how I wanted to feature the "Mel" ankle boots. I fell deeply in LOVE with the modern look and luxe construction of these boots. As I slipped into the most comfortable ankle boots EVER, my mind started spinning visions of me when I lived in Germany.......because it was bone freezing cold! I love ankle boots styled with mid calf skirts and sweaters for a "European" chic sense of style!
