\"Walking<\/a>

(About as edgy as I get.)<\/p><\/div>\n

I’ve had this outfit in my head for a while now, and this past weekend, it was finally cool enough to wear it.\u00a0 Almost.\u00a0 I found this great Best of the Pesto Top<\/a> at ModCloth, and it’s perfect for breezy fall days.\u00a0 It’s a very loose, tunic-style blouse that requires a tank underneath, and since I’m always hot by nature, I try to avoid layers unless it’s really cold.\u00a0 I paired it with my Karen Kane jeggings<\/a> from last year, and my new booties from Anthropologie, which were my reward for completing a writing gig recently.<\/p>\n

Since I usually dress with a nod to vintage style, I thought this little departure was kind of fun for a busy weekend running errands or taking a day trip with the boys.\u00a0 The denim leggings are basically skinny jeans (miraculous skinny jeans that hold everything in), so I always pair them with a loose top to balance everything out.<\/p>\n

\"Walking<\/a>

(Adelena Buckled Booties from Anthropologie.)<\/p><\/div>\n

And the Adelena Buckled Booties <\/a>are completely different from my normal shoe style, but I found them so interesting and cool that I had to try them.\u00a0 As it turns out, they are really comfortable and easy to wear, with a zipper on the back.<\/p>\n

\"Walking<\/a>

(The back zipper for easy access.)<\/p><\/div>\n

They remind me of jazz shoes, with a little bit of Stevie Nicks and Game of Thrones<\/em> thrown in for good measure.\u00a0 I guess you could say they’re so ugly, they’re beautiful, but I think they are pretty fabulous and will be great for fall and winter.<\/p>\n
