A Top for the Holidays


Happy Monday! Only 11 days until Thanksgiving! Can you believe it? 
I don't know about you, but I've already started thinking about what I am going to wear for the festivities. I like something cute and casual but comfortable enough to sufficiently stuff myself with delicious Thanksgiving food.
This top is a huge contender, and if I don't wear it for Thanksgiving, it will definitely make an appearance or two around Christmas! You already know I am loving off the shoulder (still) this season, and I can't get over the gorgeous crochet detailing. It can easily be dressed down with denim or dressed up with black pants and heels.

The Coziest Gift


Can you believe there are less than 50 days until Christmas? It's crazy to think about, but the holidays will be here before we know it! Now is the perfect time to get ahead of the holiday hustle and bustle and start your Christmas shopping early! I've already started making a list of goodies to pick up for my loved ones! At the top of the list? Cozy footwear! 

Growing up, cozy slippers or boots were always at the top of my wish list. I asked for a new pair every year, and would slip them on moments after opening them and practically live in them until a new pair took their place the following year. Is there anything better than fuzzy slippers or boots to beat the winter chill? 

My cozy footwear came early this year, in the form of the Classic Mini Boots from Koolaburra by UGG. They are the sister brand to UGG and at an extremely reasonable price point (under $100!). They are SO cozy and comfortable, that i've been wearing them snuggled up around the house and for running errands. I even wore them on a little family outing to the family orchard, and despite the chilly temps, my feet stayed nice and toasty! 

The entire Koolaburra line is all about being laid back and comfortable and who doesn't love that? I know a few people in my life who would love these mini boots or even some of the slipper options (check out the Milo Slippers ($55) or the Margo Moccasin ($60) ).  I am still in awe of the quality of these boots at their reasonable price points.  Keep your loved ones cozy this winter with a gift from Koolaburra by UGG

A few of my favorites (all under $100!)

Essential Fall Boots

This time of year, you can usually find a pair of boots on my feet. From booties to rain boots, there is something out there for any type of weather or any occasion in the fall and winter.  However, there are a few pairs I find myself reaching for most frequently. I truly believe there are 4 pairs EVERY girl needs in her wardrobe. Staples that will get you through the chilly months! 

Cognac Booties
My cognac booties are my most frequently worn boots. These actually get a lot of wear year round, as I love them with jeans and chunky layered knits in the fall and winter, and with breezy dresses in the spring and summer. They go with EVERYTHING and are so easy to wear. I have a few different styles, including leather and suede, because I wear them so frequently. They can be easily dressed up or down and taken from work to date night!

Riding Boots 
A great pair of riding boots never go out of style! I love wearing mine in the fall with dresses and skirts. When it gets REALLY cold, I find myself reaching for my riding boots more frequently as I can wear my favorite thick knit socks underneath and have cozy toes all day. I recommend spending more than you typically would on a pair of shoes when buying riding boots. You want something comfortable and high quality with a classic look, because I promise you will be wearing them for the next few years!

Rain Boots
This fall has been especially rainy and I have been SO thankful for my rain boots! These cuties aren't just handy when it's rainy. I frequently pull mine on when heading out to rake the leaves or keep them in my classroom for those days when the weather turns nasty before the end of day bell rings. These also work well in the snow, just make sure to buy the fleece inserts to make sure your feet stay warm!

Over the Knee Boots
This has been one of the hottest trends for a few years now, leading me to believe they are here to stay for at least a few more years! I love the OTK style because they are cute AND keep my legs warm! My favorite way to wear mine is with dresses or with jeans and oversized sweaters. There are so many cute options out right now...I am currently on the hunt for the perfect pair of black OTK boots to add to my wardrobe!

Mustard Cardigan


Blanket scarves are at the tip top of my fall and winter must have list! Not only do they keep you warm, but they are the perfect accessory to any outfit in the chillier months! On a rainy day, what better way to stay warm than layering up with a long sleeve tee, a cozy knit cardi and topping it off with a blanket scarf? 

Keeping it short and sweet today because it's Wednesday. You're half way through the week (unless you have Friday off, then tomorrow is your Friday)...get it, girl!
