Waiting for the End

The owner of this boot didn't just wait for the end!

Linkin Park released their unlikely song Waiting for the End in September last year but we Seattlelites are currently and typically waiting for the end of our winter-like weather. As we wait for the end of the rainy, cold grind many of us have visions of great spring shoes, dresses and sleeveless tops dancing in our heads! But wait! While we're waiting for the end this is a great time to close out our winter wear so when we return to our boots and sweaters next fall (okay, okay, we may see them before then off and on, but we can dream) they are almost as good as new.

If you're like me you may have a couple pair of boots that need some magic. Sometimes you can work the magic yourself by giving them a good polish and sometimes they require the magic of a professional. Many winters can dictate the need for heel repair. Spending a few bucks upfront will keep your favorite boots from meeting the end too soon and save you money in the long run!  It's so much nicer to get those repairs done now so you don't have to do it when you want to wear them again.

This is also a good time to hand wash or dry clean your sweaters so you'll be greeted by happy sweaters when you're once again ready to dive into the world of wool.

So instead of just waiting for the end of the cold, prepare for the inevitability of even colder weather next fall and winter! You'll be glad you did and you'll be guaranteed to Love What You Wear!
