Christina Ferrare in Thigh Boots (or OTK's)

A bootcentric edit of three different segments of the Oct 29, 2015 episode of Home and Family. A close examination of the first part of the show reveals why I was reluctant to make the "high boots" call. The placement of the zipper and slightly different texture of foot and shaft made it possible that this was the Devil's Deception (ankle shoes paired with leather pants) As we saw later in the episode, Christina was indeed wearing proper thigh high/OTK boots. These boots are difficult to categorize. I wouldn't disagree with calling them either classification, short thigh boots, or tall OTK's. These are very, very nice boots and I think she wears them well.

Christina Ferrare is 65 years old. This is what she looked like exactly 40 years ago-
In an industry where many women over 50 look like a horror-show wax replica of themselves, I think Christina has aged magnificently well. She's been a fixture on local Los Angeles television for much of my life and it's oddly nostalgic to see her on such an old-fashioned show(which is very similar to a show she did 35 years ago).  She's 11 years older than I am, and she seems to be doing it "right." She appears comfortable in her skin, neither denying the passage of time, nor embracing premature dotage.  A 20 year old won't have any idea what I'm talking about, but if you're a certain age you know what a balancing act it is. And you may agree that Christina Ferrare is REALLY good at being 65.
