I am participating in Marionberry Style's Challenge of the Month: Boots and Booties

Now that the temperature has dropped it is natural to grab for a closed toe shoe. I wanted to try pairing these booties with a dress for a more dressy look. I found these booties also pair well with a pencil skirt. 

Booties with a touch of surprise are my favorite. These incorporated that touch with snakeskin. I've also seen glitter used a lot this season! Remember these booties can be worn so many different ways, so I challenge you to style them with something other than your go-to denim!

TriFABB Meet-up October

TriFABB hosted it's second meet-up at Graffiti Yogurt last week. The meeting showcased some gorgeous Stella and Dot jewels belonging to Brooke. It was a great atmosphere and a wonderful setting to sit and visit and catch up with everyone and their blogs! I was even more excited to have a few newcomers that we got to know! 

If you live in the Raleigh-Durham area and would like to join TriFABB, head over to their website and join now!

Thanks for making the event girls! Until next time...

Blouse: Forenza for The Limited {on sale!} | Skirt: Old Navy {old, similar here} | Tights: Adrienne Vittadini via TJ Maxx | Shoes: Michael Antonio (similar) | Glasses: Cole Haan

If you need to wear blouses to work, why not make it a fun, not overly loud print? I chose this blouse for it's rich blue and black tone and bird print. Pairing the look with gray tights softened the tone of the outfit.
