Despite the teeny tiny cold front that hit Texas yesterday, it’s still too hot for these gorgeous boots. But after staring at them for the past month, dying to wear them, I decided to style them for a little pre-fall blog post. I usually buy one or two pairs of boots every year, and this year I wanted a cognac brown casual boot that I could wear with jeans and dresses. Because I am short, I almost always head to a store to buy tall boots. I wanted this pair to hit that sweet spot below the knee but above mid-calf. I’m definitely predicting these boots will be on major repeat for fall and winter, so get ready for some fun outfit ideas with these beauties including this perfect Farmers Market outfit! Once the weather cools off, one of my favorite Saturday morning activities is to head to our local farmers market. Our market is held in a large uneven parking lot, so these boots will be perfect to trek through and check out the different farm booths! I’m planning on continuing my love affair with jean leggings this fall! This pair from DL1961 are so comfy, and they fit perfect inside boots. Bonus, use promo code KAREN30 to receive 30% off your entire order thru the end of August!!
Farmer’s Market Tip- bring your own bag! While most of our booths have bags for what you purchase, it is so much easier to carry everything in one bag that you can toss on your shoulder. I love this cute canvas tote from My Kind of Lovely. The handle is soft leather which makes it really comfortable on the shoulder. My Kind of Lovely is more than just cute bags with a fabulous clothes and jewelry collection too. I love their dresses! You can receive 15% off your entire purchase with code LADYINVIOLET through September 30th! They are also going to give one of you a $50 gift card to shop!! Check out the Rafflecopter below to enter! The giveaway will run for one week and the winner will be announced Monday August 31st! Good Luck!

I have said it before and I will say it again, I am not a fan of winter. My winter clothes probably make up like 10% of my closet. Most of the times during winter, I just toss a cardigan on over my fall and spring dresses to winterize them up a bit. The only downside is this usually covers up some really beautiful tops and dresses! As soon I saw this Dobbin Clothing dress, I was in love! I love that there is movement from the blouson sleeve, but the dress is still fitted in the body. I also love the cut of the v-neck on this dress. I think it comes to the perfect point on the chest. Don’t even get me started on the plum color, it’s definitely up there on my favorite colors to wear list. The cold January temperature we have been having was keeping this dress hanging in my closet just staring at me. I will normally pair my long sleeve button down shirts underneath sleeveless sheath dresses, and so I decided to take a fashion chance and try it under my Dobbin Sylvie dress. Can I just say I definitely had an I’m a genius moment!! I love love love the way this dress looks alone with a pair of pumps, but I was amazed how fabulous it looked with a button down underneath. This is definitely where the great cut of the v-neck comes in handy to allow the button down shirt to rest so perfectly on the top of the dress. Feeling inspired, I decided to toss on my favorite pair of brown boots, and viola – a winter look from a fall/spring dress! I’m so excited to discover a new way to wear some of my favorite dresses ,but I am most excited to finally get to take this dress out for a spin!!

I absolutely hate cold weather! It’s always around this time of year that I wish I could migrate south to a tropical island where it is always warm and sip umbrella drinks all day. BUT since I can’t do that, I will just remind myself of the things I can only enjoy in cold weather, like riding boots. Every year I purchase at least one new pair of boots to add to my collection. This year, I added my first pair of over the knee boots! I am petite and have always been a little cautious about buying over the knee boots. My main goal when styling these boots is to not make myself look even shorter! For my first outing in them, I paired them with a high low sweater to help keep the proportions balanced. The high cut of the front of the sweater helps keep my legs looking long from the front view. I love the split back detailing of the back of this sweater, a little surprise for when you walk away. Happy Friday!!
