So I bought these shoes for myself because so often on a chilly morning, I envy my kids’ fluffy boots. I wanted my own super casual fluffy-ish boots, and I saw them on HeyJenRenee, who is always sporting skater-chick-chic. I haven’t worn them yet and I’m still not sure about them.
I have very little patience for watching videos online, but I found myself watching a video for every pair of shoes on Zappos.com that I was considering. Jeez. Sucked me in big time.

What’s the best thing you’ve seen online today?
P.S. Heather wrote some really helpful tips on Babycenter for those who have two kids under two.
Those boots are adorable and quite reasonably priced. Nothing wrong with looking good and staying warm at the same time during these cold winter months.
Thanks for the shout out and link to Paula’s post! -Carrie
Thanks for the mention – I think MPMK also qualifies as design porn (and I would say child development porn but that takes it from funny to creepy). Have a great weekend!
@Steph – funny you say that; I first wrote design/craft porn, but decided to be more decisive than using a slash. I think maybe I deleted the wrong word!

No worries – I kinda like that MPMK is already transcending labels
Craft porn?
It´s funny `cause until now, my wife was the only one who used that term before. And we live in Germany!
Your blog is kind of the best site today! It is fun to read! Thank you!
Sooooo, do you like the boots after a month of use?
