Happy Monday!! Hope everyone had a great weekend!! I had a fun spa day and received my first ever facial. I’m also now officially addicted to them too! Even though it is only Monday, I am already looking forward to this coming weekend because it’s my birthday weekend!!!! I have been filling my birthday wish list this year with more season transitional pieces.
I’m kind of obsessed with this top from Ruthie Grace Boutique. I love the various shades of dark blue, pink and purple in it. It is definitely a great transitional tee! For an end of summer look, I went with white denim and nude pumps, but this top looks perfect paired with the boots and black skinny jeans from my last post. I love tops with side slits like this one, because on hot summer days I can wear it with shorts and easily tuck the front portion into the shorts. And ya’ll this top with my black leather jacket, amazing!! I love versatile pieces that cannot only be worn in multiple outfits, but in all seasons too! It makes me probably a little too excited when I find a piece like this.
Ruthie Grace Boutique has some amazing transitional pieces available right now and some great end of summer outfit staples too! You can shop their boutique straight from your Instagram account too!! Learn more about shopping their Instagram here, and then head on over to their account to start shopping!! I love this idea because it’s like secret shopping. You can tell the hubs you are just scrolling on Instagram, but really you are buildng your new fall wardrobe! I love it!

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!

Ikwetta sandals are made by talented African artisans in Kibera, Kenya. Kibera is a high poverty area in Kenya. Local artisans spend hours creating the handmade beaded Maasai sandals. Their wives sell their beautiful creations which span from sandals to bags to belts and jewelry in a local Kenyan marketplace. The Ikwetta artisans work in a small shed which often doubles as sleeping quarters. The dream is to grow Ikwetta into a worldwide brand so they can build a bigger and better workshop with better working conditions. Then Ikwetta can higher more employees so they too can build a better life and hopefully one day leave the slums of Kibera. Ikwetta was started as a Kickstarter campaign by a woman who fell in love with the shoes and the people behind them on a trip to Kenya. She set out to find ways to help the artisans bring their beautiful work into a more mainstream market. I have always been a huge fan of shopping for a cause. I love knowing that these shoes are supporting the dream of such talented artisans. These shoes are definitely an eye-catcher, and I love sharing the empowering story with everyone who stops to tell me they love my shoes. I hope you will check out the Ikwetta site to see more of their beautiful handmade products!
