“These boots were made for walking. . .” well. . .not really. They are comfortable, for high heel boots; but they are not walking shoes, like sneakers. haha That being said, isn’t it fun to quote Nancy Sinatra lyrics now and then? I think so!

I can’t seem to get enough of this black puff sleeve top for fall. It’s turned into my workhorse top of the season. I have been pairing it with different styles of jeans, various booties, and also skirts! It’s black, so it goes with everything. It’s also comfortable, easy to wash and wear, and the puff sleeves are super trendy and fun. Love!

These cropped, wide leg jeans do extend me horizontally on camera, but I tell ya, in person-they do not! It’s so weird how some articles of clothing add weight when photographed, while others do not. I think the high waist, and cropped leg, are what make them add weight in pictures. In person, these jeans don’t do that! So, maybe I just need to stop photographing them, haha! They are super comfortable and really do look nice in person, if you are in the market for cropped, wide leg jeans! I really do recommend this pair; unless you want to snap pictures in them everyday, then maybe forgo the wide leg, cropped look for now. . .just sayin’

Sweater weather and fabulous boots

Hello sweater weather! It’s finally cooled off here in the San Francisco Bay Area, and it feels so good! I love getting cozy in a soft sweater, and wearing a fabulous pair of boots.

These boots are soooo amazing! Of course, as I write this, I realize you can’t really see them. They are hidden by my bootcut jeans. What you can see is the stamped croc pattern which is golden on black leather. It’s about as fabulous as stamped croc can get; at least in my closet! What you cannot see is the top of the booties which offer a western style, cowgirl boot top. They are wide, curved and amazing. You can see them online here. Next time I will make sure I wear them with a skirt, and take a close-up photo of the boots to show you!

This is a great, late fall look for cool, casual days. If the morning fog burns off, and temperatures rise, the sweater can easily come off. It’s all about layers this time of year! It can be fifty degrees one day, then eighty degrees the next. The weather is always confusing itself during the fall season!

Feeling that 70’s vibe

In case you hadn’t noticed, I am obsessed with the 1970s this season. Although the fall 2019 season has trends taking inspiration from multiple decades, there is something about the 1970s which is both nostalgic and comforting; that is drawing me into any trend from the era I can find.

While cropped jeans weren’t really a thing in the 1970s, wide leg jeans were. Therefore, I feel like these jeans can cheat a little bit in a 1970s inspired look.  The fabric is also really soft; which makes these jeans super comfortable. I definitely need to wear them with a heel though, or else the wide leg and cropped silhouette easily adds weight to my 5’4″ frame.

Which decade are you feeling this season?
