“You only get in life what you have the courage to ask for.”

Sure. And a little good ol’ fashioned stalking never hurt anyone, either. I’m not too proud to admit that I put up a great big spotlight on myself when it came to working with Cougar.
Look at me! I’m LENA! Okay perhaps I should rewind.
Last year, Cougar Boots began popping up on some of my favourite lifestyle and fashion blogs. Tibets, Ravishings (?), Ringo Starrs and Regals – the bloggesses were prancing around, taking photos and showing off complete fashion ferocity. I was left an unsightly shade of green… called envy.

Puh-lease.
Thankfully, it took very little arm bending (those who get it, get it – thanks Matchstick!) and I chose a sweet style for all my Winter ’12 adventures – the Mirage boot.
