Jeggings and Boot Socks

One of my favorite trends last fall was boot socks! I thought they were so adorable, and Katie gave me a couple of pairs for Christmas. I had just had Graham though and my feet were still so swollen that I couldn't fit them into my boots!! So...I never got to wear my boot socks last season! I was hoping they would still be in style this year so I would be able to wear them now. Today Jesse and I both had the day off. We went up to the school to eat lunch with Abby and Jared for their Thanksgiving Feast. Also, today is Graham's birthday! So, we took him back up to the NICU for a visit with his nurses who took care of him for such a long time.
I knew we were going to be running around all day so I wanted to be comfortable, but still look nice. I wore my jeggings with a top that I really like. I like this top because it's not just your normal black and white...it has the pop of pink. Then I added my boots and boot socks.

Casual Bling

Tonight I pulled out one of my all-time favorite tops. I love it so much for a couple of reasons. First, it is extremely soft and comfortable. Second, it is a casual sweatshirt, the sequins bump it up a notch. The first season I bought this I wore it all the time. Then last year I didn't get to wear it at all since I was pregnant. So, I'm really excited to be able to wear it again this year! It's the perfect go-anywhere top.

Boots, Boots, and more Boots

One of my favorite things about fall is that I can finally pull out my boots!! I have several pairs of boots and I have several more on my wish list. Jesse doesn't understand how I could need any more, but I try to explain to him that they each go with different types of outfits! I have actually had most of my boots now for quite awhile, so I could stand to get some new ones.

 

 
I got both of these boots at KMart, of all places, like 6 or 7 years ago. They are perfect with skinny jeans or leggings. My favorite things about these boots are that they are flat, so I can go really casual with them, and also, you can roll the top up over the knee or down below the knee. They are super comfortable and I paid less than $20 for each pair. They have held up great!


My mom gave me these boots when I moved to New York 7 years ago, and I am still wearing them. I get compliments on them all the time! I love the fringe detail, and the wedge. These came from Charlotte Russe. I wear these with dresses a lot because the wedge gives me some height.
 

 
The boots I wear probably more than any others are my cowboy boots. I wear these year round. I actually bought these at Ross for $20 several years back. I feel like the more worn in they get, the better they look. I wear these with dresses, skirts, jeans and leggings. I love them!
 
 
I have two pairs of ankle boots and I bought both of them while I was out of town. The lace up pair I bought at H&M in NYC. I wear these mainly with my skinny jeans. My Papaw calls these my "plow boots"! The grey pair I bought at Express in Nashville. I wear these with my skinny jeans as well, but also sometimes I'll put them with a little dress.

 
These are my dressier black boots. Even thought they have a heel, they are still really comfortable. I got these at Shoe Carnival about 9 or 10 year ago and am still loving them!

 
These are my newest pair of boots. Jesse bought these for me a couple of years ago. I showed him a pair I liked and he picked these out for me. He did a great job! I love the strappy detail. I told him I needed a brown pair with a heel. I'm not sure where these came from, but I really love them, and they are really easy to wear.
 
You may have noticed that I have magazines in my boots. I read a trick somewhere, that if you stick rolled up magazines in your boots it will keep them standing upright and keep them from slouching over and losing their shape!
 
Last fall and winter I was pregnant with Graham, and then even after I had him my feet were way too swollen to wear boots. I'm so excited to be able to wear my boots again this year! I'm hoping boot socks are back in style again too!! And like I said, I do have a few other pairs on my wish list...so we'll see...I may be getting some new ones as well!
