I wish I felt bad...

....about buying this sweater. But I DON'T!
I went by Pin Me today, to drop something off. Of course then I played dress up. Fall is upon us, with Winter close on it's heels, in other words, IT'S COLD. I love the brand, Gentle Fawn, and have a few other items of theirs in my closet. I love it.

Last week I also purchased 2 sweater vests from Forever 21. I had to lay to rest my other black one, which not even my electric sweater shaver could save.

I picked a black basic with buttons. I have been wearing it with my Polka Dot 9 to 5 blouse from my line.


I also went for this one in Navy. It's a bit longer and has cute pockets.

So far I am still wearing a back brace for my angry back, and masking it is proving to be a bit difficult. Thankfully it is fall, and time for sweaters, and bulkier clothing.

Boots

Boots are a must have for living in Oregon. Sadly, I have a very hard time finding flat boots that are also stylish for everyday wear. I love fun boots with heels, but I can't tromp around my neighborhood in them with all of the leaves and puddles. Here are my selections (and a few in my closet) for functional boots for this fall.


This lovely red number is by Jessica Bennett.

These are surprisingly from Target (and also in my wardrobe). Although they are synthetic, they are comfy and very cute with the wedge heel.


I'm not usually a big fan of Madden Girl, but these little booties are adorable.

Modern Vintage is a new brand to me, but I love the texturing of the leather and the flap on the back to the heel.

I love Red shoes, so I threw in this fun pair of ankle boots by Not Rated. I'm a sucker for the faux snake skin.

Ok so I was 50/50 on these until I saw the toe shape (below). Bronx always has great boots. The draping of the leather is great, and these would be great with a skirt or with denim.

I am REALLY picky about the toe shape on my shoes.

My favorite boots from last season are Chinese Laundry. So these would be a cute upgrade. Plus they are shiny, and have the great exposed zipper.

I swear Frye is my arch nemesis (aside from the raglan sleeve). I always adore their boots, but have yet been able to afford a pair. These are fantastic, and have a great toe shape.

Again with the Frye boots. My favorite color this season is Grey, and I am pleasantly surprised with the amount of Grey footwear choices. I love the top of these boots.

Look I didn't talk about bows the entire post!
