STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Cool Girl, Cool Boots

It’s officially that time of year, Fashionistas and Fashionistos! 

Get ready to break out the leather jackets and pumpkin spice lattes, because fall is almost here! There’s just something magical about cool weather and crunchy leaves. 

Fall makes getting dressed so much easier than during those hot, sticky summer months. Simply throw on a chic jacket, a cozy sweater, skinny jeans, ankle boots and out the door you go. However, this formula can get a little repetitive and sometimes, dare I say, bland. Switching out, or adding on, pieces for something more modern and updated is a great way to spice up any fall outfit, and that’s exactly what this Fashionista did. 

She’s got all the classics: the perfect coat, a cable knit sweater and skinnies. What makes her outfit emulate the cool girl vibe everyone wants are her color blocked, heeled Hunter boots. Yep, you read that right: heeled Hunter boots. The navy and maroon detailing of these boots tie everything together perfectly, and they’re to die for. They complement the cooler tones throughout the outfit, and can we just take a moment to appreciate those cute socks peeking out?! Adding on the littlest things can change an outfit entirely, this Fashionista definitely agrees. Her advice? 

The Fashionista says, “The right pair of wool socks go with anything! And a cute little peekaboo with some fuzzy socks adds just the right amount of playfulness. Scarves are perfect too, they can shield your face and can easily be taken off inside.”

Adding accessories on such as scarves, frilly socks, beanies or even gloves adds the perfect touch to any outfit. Spice things up by ditching your riding boots for a cool pair of over the knees. Or, keeping things simple by switching out your average beanie for a beret is the perfect way to take things up a notch. Pair it with a camel coat, cream sweater, black jeans and leather ankle boots for a city-ready look.
