One Word: BOOTS

It appears I made it through my year of no-new-clothes! This accomplishment calls for an official celebratory post and that is definitely in the near future, but I wanted to go ahead and show what my reward splurge was: brown leather boots. Those that know me well know I've had this on my wish list for about three years. Thanks to end-of-winter sales at L.L. Bean, that is one more thing crossed off the list.  I love the color and especially the adjustable calf option. My calves are so skinny and it has been torture looking for boots of this style that fit me. Here are other outfits featuring the boots. (And because if I don't post them now I probably never will!)
