I’ve been longing for cooler weather, and boy did I get it. The boyfriend and I spent the weekend in sleepy-town Waco, TX for Baylor Homecoming weekend (his alma-mater); such a beautiful campus and perfect fall weather for football and fun; temps hovered in the 60s.
Pulled out the over the knee boots for the first time this season. One of those key wardrobe investments… I purchased them upon returning from Christmas in Paris almost two years ago. To admit, I’ve struggled with these babies, always having difficulty pairing them; wondering if they were too high… but I’ve made my peace and truly love them – the perfect soft and supple leather, easy to wear for hours on end. Meanwhile vests are my go to in the fall. I picked up this quilted one on major sale in store; it’ll definitely be making it’s way through my fall and winter wardrobe.
