Combat to Me


Where are the tough-girl "soles" in this world? Literally. Accentuate your feet with the soles of combat boots. Sometimes we need a break from cutesy outfits and diamonds and all that jazz. You don't have to dress like an androgynous person to rock these boots! These shoes can be used to accent your girlish pieces. Back in the day these rough n' tough boots were woolly socks flannel worthy, now they're tights and floral worthy. You don't have to feel obligated to wear jeans and a leather jacket with your combat boots. Mix it up and don't be afraid to wear them with dresses and skirts of all types. Do something different and pair your combat boots with a maxi dress or if you're feeling those military vibes wear some skinnies and a green jacket with leather sleeves. Feeling hipster? How about some high waisted shorts with black tights and a baggy sweater. If you're still feeling those flannel roots there is nothing wrong with the classic look of a flannel and  a beanie.

Not only are combat boots cute, but they are extremely sustainable and comfy- which is an added plus to looking great.These boots are just as important in the fashion world and they are in military training!

Nice Booties

Are you knee-deep in the latest footwear trends? Well now you only have to bee ankle-deep. Ankle booties have proven their staying power They may be the only pair of shoes that looks killer with bare legs, skinny jeans, tights, slouchy trousers, or any outfit you could dream up. Turn your heads to get a glimpse of lace up combats, a pair of classic chelseas, chunky heeled, or sky high stiletto booties. The great thing about ankle boots is you can wear them with almost anything. Instead of topping your outfit off with a boring flat, the ankle boot will add an edge to your outfit like no other. For your simple yet chic daily outfit, pair your booties with some skinnies, a cozy sweater or blazer, and scarf. If you're not a jeans girl, ankle boots look perfect with dresses or skirts. They can even toughen up the girliest dress in your closet. Although the weather is getting colder, wear some high waisted shorts with some tights along with your ankle boots and look warm whilst doing so. Let your ankles do the talking.

Green with Envy


What color reads fall? Green! Ahh it feels as if you are taking a trip to Emerald City. Redheads rejoice. There are different shades and hues for every skin tone out there. It could either be a pair of earrings, a jacket, pants, a dress, even eye makeup. Green is a color that can transition throughout the whole year; from moss green, , hunter, to emerald, to neon. People are naturally attracted to the color green because it represents life, so why not wear it and grab the attention of others?

Lace is always a classy choice, but sometimes lace dresses aren't always that warm. But in fashion, we risk the cold to look cute, and a green lace dress looks fall enough to make it look like it was meant to be worn in the cold weather. The best time to wear a green sweater, is all the time; in a time where green trees turn brown and lose their life, you be the tree. Accenting a plain colored dress with a bold emerald necklace draws everyone's attention to your smile. Want to brighten up your face? Green smoky eyes are all the rage this fall to bring out your natural color in your face. And of course we have the ever-so-famous military jacket. Pair it with a striped top, some skinnies, and some flats for a casual chic look, and don't forget your red lipstick. These clothes will make you green with envy.
