Tis the Season for Scarfs and Boots


I am completely and utterly obsessed with scarf’s and boots, which can be confirmed by my ever growing collection.  One might think I lived somewhere other than the consistently sunny and 70 degree So Cal but I love that it gets just cold enough to rock my favorite fall/winter attire without having to deal with ice or snow. So you can imagine my delight when the last few weeks I could finally feel the chill in the air confirming that I have several months ahead where every outfit can be chic and cozy. 

I recently received an emailer from Rachel Zoe’s team with a link to a YouTube video (http://bit.ly/snPqar) where in under 5 minutes you can learn more ways to wear a scarf than I ever could have imagined - my heart about burst. A good scarf collection can add a pop of color or pattern to any neutral outfit and make it appear as though a professional stylist dressed you herself.  It really is all about accessories!  Not to mention that a beautiful scarf can make the perfect gift for any woman or man on your list.

Then there are boots - flat boots, tall boots, short boots, ankle boots, cowboy boots.  They really are the most comfortable yet fashionable footwear.  Rugged, sexy, edgy – you name it – there’s a boot to slip into for that and it will transform your entire outfit.  I do believe Steve Madden (www.stevemadden.com) is king of the affordable yet stylish stomper but I LOVE getting recommendations from others who have found their perfect boot, so please share yours with me so I can add them to my Pinterest board and lust after them.

What clothing item/accessory/shoe do you gravitate towards during the winter season?
