Now that I’m through all of my NYFW content, it’s back to normal programming. If you missed my coverage, you can check it out here: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 and Day 4.
I wanted to share 3 items I’ve been living in lately. This jacket (sold out but similar version here), these bracelets and these combat boots have been my go-to transition pieces from summer to fall.
Let’s talk boots, shall we? Combat boots have been going strong for two fall seasons in a row. (Next week I’ll be dropping a post on How to Find the Best Vintage Dr. Marten’s, so stay tuned for that!)
I couldn’t be more excited about this because not only are combat boots stylish, but they are suuuper comfortable. That brings me to the topic for today’s post.
I’ve come to realize that with all of the amazing boots I want to wear this fall, jeans are no longer cutting it. I’m just not feeling the way boots look tucked into jeans. It feels very early aughts to me. Like something The Real Housewives of New Jersey used to wear (love you, ladies!).
With ankle boots, mid-calf boots and over-the-knee boots I truly feel the only way to go is with skirts. They highlight the shoes more, and are frankly quite a bit more comfortable than jeans.
The only problem that I’m running into is that being a mom of an active 1.5 year old, skirts can be a bit challenging when my daughter is on the go. No matter! I’m committed to trading in all of my jeans for skirts this fall.
Here are some options I’m loving that lend well to mom life.
