It's another Monday! And luckily, I'm in a much better mood this week than I have been! Mostly because I have been surprised with a vacation this week! That's right, we're heading to good ol' Gatlinburg TN this Wednesday! Totally unexpected, total surprise and I am so excited!
But my mood improvement is also largely in part by my boots finally arriving in the mail this weekend! Yaay! I have been
not so patiently waiting for them since I hit that "check out" button at
Oasap. I have desperately been wanting a pair because what sort of fashion blogger doesn't own a pair of ankle boots?? I find all of these Pinterest outfits I want to recreate but it's always "Aww, if I only had the boots!" But now I do (happy dance) and I am in luurv! They're adorable and comfortable. These puppies are lined on the inside with micro-suede. It's like blankets for your feet! Blankets. For. Your. Feet.
See what I did there? Actually able to do the copycat thang! Thank you, Oasap!

So these rockin' pair of boots came from Oasap. I've said it before and I must say it again; I looove Oasap! They're awesome for so many reasons; great prices, awesome customer service (you NEVER hear that anymore) but also because every time you make a purchase, you can get shop credits. You wear your fabulous item and submit a picture of how you styled it. Boom; automatic shop credits. Gettin' paid to shop, yo! I didn't know this for the longest time and I shudder at all the missed opportunities. All that free stuff! Waah! But that's why I'm sharing it with you! I always love getting something for nothing. I guess I'm just greedy like that. Ain't no shame in my game and it's especially awesome because with my credits, I got these bad boys for just $3! Awww snaaaap.
In addition to wanting ankle boots, I've been wanting a pair of distressed jeans soooo bad. I just love how you can style them with heels or a blazer or some other schnazzy item and it doesn't look stuffy. They bring an immediate casual factor into the equation. However, I didn't want to go buy a pair. Other than just being a cheapskate, I have way too many pairs of jeans as it is and I just don't have the room. Solution? DIY those bad boys. I love the way they turned out. I didn't want a "destroyed" look, just a little distressing and that's why I love the DIY. It's so easy to do, and you can customize them to exactly what you're looking for. Holla at cha gurl if you want a tutorial. Hope your week has started as good as mine! Until next time...

I want to live in this look. What a perfect fall outfit! LOVE the boots! Hope you can link up with us for Monday Mingle over at BonBon Rose Girls! :)
ReplyDeleteI love those boots, and this is a great outfit overall! Your lipstick is absolutely gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteSometimes you don't have to say a great deal. So this is my word to you...PERFECT.
ReplyDeleteI like you style. It's uncomplicated and chic.
I'm Glenda of So What to Twenty. Nice to find your blog on BonBon link-up.

I somehow don't have a pair of ankle boots... Therefore, I need!
ReplyDeleteSincerely, Dani Rose
I found you via the link up and am following! I have been trying to find a good flannel shirt that doesn't make me look like a lumberjack. So far I haven't had any luck...My husband and I honeymooned in Gatinburg! We didn't realize it was such a tourist trap, but it was still pretty fun. I think there are 100's of little shops to explore. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteGatlinburg is definitely a tourist trap! This time of the year especially but it's so pretty down there right now and I love just walking through the shops! Thanks so much for stopping by, Elizabeth!
ReplyDeleteI know, right? I'm probably going to wear these out real quick! haha
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Glenda! I'm glad you stopped by, I hopped over and spent FOREVER going through your outfits! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Niki! That lipstick was actually only a dollar. It's e.l.f. and I think the color is rich red.
ReplyDeleteOasap has a lot that I like but they're very hit or miss with shoes. These, however, are EXACTLY what I was looking for. And Oasap really has great stuff for great prices!
ReplyDeleteLOVE dressing up flannel! Such a cute look - love your booties too!

ReplyDeleteSuper cute outfit! Love the flannel shirt and those boots!!

Thank you, Chelsea! This is my first venture into flannel and I'm loving it too. Cozy and casual is the definition of fall!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Agi! I agree, I am LOVING flannel!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Karly! Thanks for hosting and I'm glad you stopped by! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Chelsey! Most days I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing with my makeup so it's awesome that I'm not failing! haha I hope you do check out Oasap, I have nothing but great things to say about them. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteThank you! This outfit felt very "fall" :)
ReplyDeleteVery cool outfit and love the perfect cat eye make-up.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Monday Mingle.

Thank you, Daphne! (LOVE the name btw!) I always struggle with the cat eye! One side never seems to match the other! Good to know it's not too noticeable! haha I'm glad you stopped by!
ReplyDeleteThis might sound odd, but I really like your emphasis on eye-makeup with this particular tomboy-grows-up-sexy look. Not over the top ... adds to the narrative. You are, of course, looking easy-peazy chic. Love it all.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jan! Kind as always! I think this shirt could go "lumberjack" real quick. I think it's the makeup and boots that keep it feminine and chic. Got to love accessories!
ReplyDeleteFirst time visiting from Moms Monday Mingle! Love this outfit-I love just about everything plaid right now!
