Astonishing as it may sound, I am actually still trying to swiftly catch up with some New Year’s projects and mails from last week. Since January was not going to wait for anyone, it’s definitely been a full-on packed week.
As an avid boot buying fashionista, when it comes to boots of all styles I am quite selective. This is primarily because even with high heeled boots I really need to be comfortable. And, specifics are a little bit different for me when selecting boots than when buying a stiletto shoe.
Wearing boots from my wardrobe generally requires me to be in them for extended periods far more than wearing my heels—rain or shine. These rubber ankle booties were too adorable, so I chose to style them casually with a fleece insulated jacket. I am not typically one for wearing hoodies (I think I own one that’s attached to a leather jacket), but I thought I’d take on the challenge and try this one sent to me by Sammydress.
I wanted something that I could wear a cable knit top or multiple layers over, so this worked well. The overall fit was agreeable, as well as the hand of the fabric—it’s very soft inside and out to touch. The occasion: it was an easy compromise since we were only heading off to a café and picking up parcels.
As for taking a risk with my style and trying an even more casual version of weekend layering, I’d say that it wasn’t at all too bad. But, to be honest, I did miss my high heeled boots a couple of times throughout the day.
