Boots Are Made For...

I love shoes. And of course my favorite are boots. However, growing up in an island it was hard to find an appropriate time to wear them!

Throughout my life, I moved around a bit and had the opportunity to finally live in places where boots were a must rather than a want. 

Fall is just around the corner and I can't wait to try on some of these affordable and gorgeous styes! Over the knee boots are a must-have this fall season, I've included some on this post but also showed some variety... not sure how comfortable those over the knee boots are!

The Fall Fashion Book

Leopard, Red, Grey Autumn 

Fall is probably one of my favorite seasons when it comes to fashion. The temperature usually allows you to wear some summer items while layering them with key fall pieces that you can wear right into winter.

This fall expect to see red, leopard and grays all over.

Below is a cute outfit I've put together looking forward to this fall.


Go for bold, red pieces that you can layer up with fun accessories.
Shirred Wait Tunic in Bloody Red, $28.00 at Topshop

Add leopard prints to your solid color outfits.
Leopard Mossimo Printed Cardigan, $10.48 at Target

Zippered accessories are a must this fall.

Add some vintage accesories to complete your look.

For handbags, go with grey and plum tones.
Pleather Ring Tote in Grey, $26.80 at Forever 21

Don't forget a nice belt. Thin or wide.
Fab Slip & Snap Elastic Belt in Black/Purple, $4.50 at Forever 21

South of your ankles, wear comfortable yet chic shoes that you can easily wear with a pair of tights when needed.

This Fall: Boho Chic Woodstock

Probably one of the few movies that I have been looking forward to this summer is Ang Lee's Taking Woodstock - the story of a Greenwich Village interior designer who unknowingly helped spark a historical hippie-cultural revolution by hosting the Woodstock Music and Arts Festival at his family's motel as a way to salvage his parent's property.

Of course, I cannot think about this movie and disregard its fashion implications for this fall. I like to call it Boho Chic Woodstock.

This fall, keep your beach hair and enjoy a season of peace and music. And please, leave the lava lamp at the frat house.
