FALL IS UPON US: BOOTS



I don't know about you, but I love boots. I wear my Frye motorcycle boots practically every day. I also have a pair of vintage lace-ups, ankle cowboy boots, and crazy Irregular Choice boots that are consistently in rotation (the ICL's less often than others, because THEY ARE MY BABIES!!).
I'd like to expand my boot catalogue however, and here are a few styles that have caught my eye...

 A Forest, A Forest

1. Seychelles $139.95 @ Nordstrom, 2. Wanted $59.50 @ Delia*s, 3. Rocket Dog $76 @ Lori's Shoes, 4. Steve Madden $129.95 @ Zappos, 5. Steve Madden $99 @ Shoes.com, 6. Jeffery Campbell $174.95 @ Solestruck, 7. Diba $59.95 @ DSW, 8. Wanted $59.50 @ Delia*s, 9. Dolce Vita $134.95 @ Nordstrom, 10. Jeffery Campbell $199.95 @ Solestruck
I am super in love with the outdoorsy/work boot trend. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, I often took the lush forested surroundings for granted (I may even have hated trees!). After returning from my stint in Los Angeles though, I can assure you, I have a new found appreciation for the outdoors, and fashion inspired by it. Distressed leather, lace-ups, and thick rubber treads are all key elements. LOVE.
