Ikat believe it

In the two years I've had this skirt I've managed to pair it with cream, blush, and chambray. Way to think outside the box, right? But I'm afraid too much color will make it look gaudy, and a darker neutral will detract from it's summery air. Any thoughts on future pairings?

Comfortably stepping into fall

White summer eyelet still intact, I'm willing to dip a toe into the autumn waters with these supple brown leather booties from Vionic.

There is much to love about the 'Upton' ankle boot; available in three colors of genuine leather, I chose the java which has more of a mahogany look in person than the chestnut it's depicted in on the site. The heel height is very walkable at just over two inches, and most importantly, they feature an Orthaheel removable orthotic insert, providing arch support that is lacking from most shoes.

They aren't unreasonably priced at $160, and cater to sizes from 5 to 11, including wide with options.

Last year my search for the perfect black bootie started in September and ended in January, with countless tried and failed boots in-between. This year my search for the perfect brown bootie has started and ended with this option from Vionic.
