It's winter time, boots season-- so what better time to talk about and bring back a unique fashion item that can work for any style if you know how to make it work --Spats! The very old (19th century old) fashion accessory that has withstood the test of time, deserves a comeback. But I dare not to introduce these onto my readers without giving you proper advice on how to wear them stylishly.

So now there's a couple of reasons why I like Spats:
  1. Ability to go from shoe to boots in 2 snaps
  2. Mix and Match, this is a "one style fits many" accessory.
  3. Tired of a pair of heels or ankle boots? Spat them up.
Spats are not very easy to find but the best way to go about looking for a style you like is to do a search by designer and find out if they distribute to any local stores in your area, or if they have an online shop, even better. Believe it or not, Spats are actually very easy to make, so if you have a bit of design skills, try designing your own and hiring a seamstress to make them for you.
Dekkori.com was created by attorney turn entrepreneur; check this site out for a variety of Spat styles, for the unique look the price point is pretty reasonable, average $151. See some of the styles below and links to purchase a pair of your own.
