Save vs Splurge Fall Trends

HIKING BOOTS : Save (Only $60) // Splurge

SHACKET (PLAID SHIRT JACKET) : Save (Only $40 on sale) // Splurge

Happy Friday!

I have to say the "shacket" trend has definitely become a hot item.  It seems like everyone is buying them - and they are selling out everywhere.  I found two options - the "save" option which a great price - and a fun purple plaid (plus it is only $40 on sale).  And, then there is the classic black and white one.

Another trend that is still going strong are these shearling-lined hiking boots. I found this almost identical "save" option for only $60.

In addition to you hiking boots, combat boots have become very popular this fall.  These combat boots are one of my favorites.  I love the mix between a combat style and ski boot.

My Fall Boot Collection + Favorites

Happy Tuesday!

I thought I would share some of my favorites from the fall boot collection in my closet.   You may noticed a trend.  I have four pairs of the Sam Edelman Winona booties.  I have to say I am thankful because I only paid for the white ones.  The other three I got through promotional deals and sponsorships.  Also, one thing is for sure, I never pay full price for boots - because EVERYTHING goes on sale!  All of these boots I bought on sale.  I found those two ankle booties during a promotional sale at Sam Edelman - they were both only $48!  And, several of the others I found on Nordstrom Rack.

I should also mention that I have become very picky about what I buy - and only buy comfortable boots.  I try to stay with a 2-3 inch heel for comfort (and style).  Any more than a 3 inch heel, and I can't walk as quickly in them.  Any less than 2 inches, and they don't give me the height I am looking for.  Since I am only 5'5' - I like to be a little taller.

As far as comfort, the Winona booties are really comfortable.  That is probably why I have bought more than one pair.  I know my husband makes fun of me for buying more than one of something - but I really just think it is what girls do - or at least me.  Anyone else do this?

My Top Five Must Have Boots For Fall

 SHOP THE LOOK

Sweater: The Limited (similar here) // Scarf: Asos (Up to 60% of everything)

Jeans: 7 for All Mankind (Similar here for $20 // Boots: Similar here (Under $50)

 Watch: Michael Kors (Similar here for $22) // Bag: ZAC Zac Posen

Happy Friday!

So, here's a funny story about the jeans you see above.  I loved those jeans - and wore them A LOT.  Well, one day this summer I wore them to work and when I got home, I realized the back of the jeans (the butt area) had split.  And, yes, I had unknowingly been walking around all day like this.  Luckily, my sweater was long enough to cover it - but I was still a little embarrassed.  Plus, I was sad that I could no longer wear my favorite jeans.

MY TOP FIVE MUST HAVE BOOTS FOR FALL

1. A short ankle bootie in a staple leather color - that goes with pretty much everything.

2. A suede ankle bootie. (Or you could opt for a more fun one like this or this one that are both currently 40% off.)

3. Over the knee boots like these high-heeled one (more for dressing up or going out - like these are under $60) or a flat heeled option (more comfortable for running errands) or my favorite mid-heel one that would work for both.  I also love these mid-heeled ones that are under $80.

4. A pair of velvet booties like these ones during the #nsale and I can’t wait to wear them.  Also,  embroidered booties.

5. A military/biker-inspired lug sole bootie - a more rugged boot or a more dressed up bootie - like these that are marked down under $50.

Lastly, leopard will always be a staple bootie, and if you love animal (leopard) print boots as much as I do - I just spotted these that are 50% off.

MY TOP FIVE MOST POPULAR ITEMS THIS WEEK

1. This $10 ruffled top.

2. This perfect fall sweater.

3. This cozy cardigan that I bought.

4. A comfy twist hem tee.

5. This $20 floral dress - that would look great paired with either #1, 2, or 3 in my must have boots list.
