Icebugs Women's Cortina Snow Boot


Bad weather? No problem! This Cortina hiking boot from Icebugs is here to help you every step of the way. It's constructed with a waterproof upper and has Comfort Zone technology, which insulates and protects your foot from the cold coming from the ground.
Customer Review: A new Icebugs convert
I debated with myself on buying these, had never heard of Icebugs and wasn't sure about it. I'm so glad that I did - I absolutely love them! We've been getting snow at least once a week and I honestly don't believe that the temperature has been above freezing in over a month. These have kept my toes nice and toasty even when tromping through multiple feet (not even kidding) of snow. They're not very heavy and they sure do the job! The sole is fabulous too, has what look almost like a rubber version of those little spikes on golf shoes. Great little grippers that hold on through the mix of ice, snow, and crud that has accumulated outside.
Customer Review: Winter in Switzerland...
I definitely purchased these boots in Switzerland for 1.5x what Amazon offers them for; however, they are well worth all the francs I plunked down. They act as... four-wheel-drive for your feet! You really can walk over ice without a problem. They do not keep my feet warm like they claim in the informational flier that comes with them; but then again I may just have poor circulation. I get lots of compliments on their appearance; this is a slim, good-looking boot. My only complaint is the sickening crunching sound that comes with every step you take.


Africa, India and other exotic places bring to the west inspired fashions always make a positive statement. One of the most popular garments used in this style is a wrap skirt. How to tie wrap skirts can seem a little daunting, but with the proper guidance, it isn't really all that difficult. Here are the basic steps to make sure you learn how to tie wrap skirts just right.

Step One: Get Ready

Start by standing with your legs apart before you begin to tie the skirt. Even if you learn how to tie wrap skirts perfectly, you won't be happy if you can't actually walk! Tying the skirt with your legs apart ensure you will have plenty room to take steps once the skirt is fully on. Grab your wrap with one hand on each end and put it behind your back.

Step Two: Wrap and Tuck

Pull the ends of the skirt forward. Keep the sides even. Tuck one side into your bathing suit or pin it to your undergarments. Be sure and tuck or pin enough material to keep it secure, but not so much you create a lump of fabric.

Step Three: Secure the Other Side

Take the free end of the fabric and wrap it across your front. Be sure the front of the fabric is smooth across your stomach. Fold some pleats that end at the corner. Three pleats are usually plenty. This can be the hardest part of learning how to tie wrap skirts. Don't fuss over the pleating too much. One of the easiest ways to make them look right is to make the pleats decreasing in size. Make the first pleat four inches, the second three, and the third roughly two. Tuck the pleated end into the waistband of the skirt. If it feels a little loose, secure it with a pin from underneath so it doesn't show.

Sarongs and large scarves make great wrap skirts. As you learn how to tie wrap skirts, get creative and experiment. You can learn how to tie wrap skirts that are short and flirty, or long and sophisticated. You can wear them to the beach or an outing in the park. If you pick high quality materials, you can even find ways to learn how to tie wrap skirts that are perfect for the office or a night out on the town.

You may also want to learn how to tie wrap dresses as well as skirts. Halter dresses are very easy and look great as an outfit for a summer day or as a swimsuit cover-up. It is as easy to learn how to tie wrap dresses as it is skirts. Hold the sarong or scarf behind your back with the ends coming to the front just beneath your armpits. Cross the ends over your breasts. After crossing, tie the ends behind your neck. It is really that easy to learn how to tie a wrap dress. With some creativity and some practice, you will find that you can wear sarongs and scarves in a myriad of fashionable ways!

Look online for the highest quality fashions at the best possible prices. On the Internet you can find much more selection and variety than you could possibly hope to find in your local shops. The prices you find in virtual shops are also much lower than what you are likely to find in a physical store.
