GIDDY UP: Riding boots transformed

So one of my favorite everyday pieces has to be the riding boot. When I was first introduced to a riding boot this little boy had on a pair of Frye Riding boots in a store and I nearly attacked his mother asking her what those fabulous boots were. She started laughing at me and said frye ( which I had NEVER heard of.) Immediately i ran down to Nordstrom and the display was my size in this amazing brown tumbled rustic leather and $200 later they were going home with me. I still have them about 4 or 5 years later and they are getting better with age.  When you think of a riding boot you think of the style with the harness rings on them and the low heel but they have been modified for the fashion world in such a magnificent way. They now have huge heels, thick heels, pointy, square and round toes, and come in a million different colors and textures. I like them because they are able to withstand a day of running errands but give you that careless cool look. There are a bunch of amazing different designs for fall 2010 and wanted to share them with you today! Enjoy!

WHITE-OUT!

Lots of people confuse white to be a color that you only wear in the summer and NOT after labor day but more and more fashion rules have been and are being broken. I don't mind people mixing and matching fashions as long as your not a hot mess that looks like you just threw a bunch of clothes on and made yourself look frumpy. I think it should be an automatic rule that if your going to be fashionable have a floor length mirror by your front door so you can ask yourself do I want to be caught dead looking like this in public? Believe me I see some pretty bad ensembles every so often and wonder if these people own mirrors in their houses. White is a color that can be done very classy or very trashy. If your in doubt don't wear it. One of the main reasons why people hesitate to wear white is that it gets so dirty so fast. I agree with that 100% so I try to wear white where I am positive I won't get dirty! There are no fashion rules anymore so don't be afraid to wear white just make sure it looks right when you do wear it. As long as you are confident the world will follow.........
