Coat and Boots

next
Pink Papaya Giveaway
I wish my photographer would tell me to smooth out my sweater but. . oh wait. tripods don’t talk.

I got the boots. After coming across a major coupon I was able to get them at nearly 1/2 price! #winning

Anyway, I love ’em. This is my first pair of wedge boots that are higher than 1/2 an inch. They feel good. Harder to walk in than the flatter ones, but still good.

I also picked up this coat at H&M for a measly $40.00 when my family and I were shopping downtown Chicago. H&M can be hit or miss for me, but this time it was definitely a hit!


Boots: Loft
Sweater: J.Crew Factory (similar)
Necklace: c/o VeryJane
Coat: H&M
Jeans: Loft

It was about 58 degrees yesterday so instead of donning this coat for a little blog photo op alone, I got to wear it the rest of the day. I don’t doubt that we’ll see 80 degrees again this month, but yesterday. . .yesterday I got to enjoy my coat.

I wanted these boots but the reviews are horrible! :-/ you look adorable Kate

Reply
Kate says · 10.09.12

yeah they are not the MOST comfortable shoes in the world, but I didn’t experience what the people reviewed did–so I’m keeping them!

Hey I too have kept my eye on these boots! Did you agree with the reviews that they run small???

Reply
Kate says · 10.09.12

I didn’t think they ran small, I usually wear a 9 and these are a 9!

Love your blog! You are really pretty, too!
I was just wondering what kind of workout pants and sneakers you are wearing in one of your recent instagram photos, and if you would recommend them?
Thanks!

Isn’t getting something you’ve wanted for a while so awesome?! I recently got a pair of boots that I’ve basically been stalking from Aldo for under $100!! I can’t tell you how much I love them!

I’m dying for that jacket! Fall and winter clothes are just so much more fun to me. Wool pea coats just make my heart swoon.

I LOVE THAT JACKET!!! Is it true to size?

Reply
Anonymous says · 10.15.12

I went out today and got this coat. It seems true to size. I wear an 8 jean, so wanted a 10 in the coat. (To fit sweters under), they only had 2 left in the store, a 12 and a 2. Got the 12 it fits fine. 10 would have been perfect, but 12 looks nice also.

I must admit, as much as I LOVE reading your posts everyday and seeing all the CUTE things you have, my bank account doesn’t have the same appreciation for your posts! haha! Thanks for sharing! I’ve already looked into purchasing the jacket! Been looking for a decent one at a decent price! Thanks!

Hey Kate, I love your loft jeans! I’ve been wearing jeggings lately because I HATE the “diaper butt” look that jeans get when they become saggy after a few hours. Do these loft skinnies you’re wearing maintain their shape pretty well? Thinking about buying a pair but don’t wanna spend $70 for jeans that are going to sag! Thanks!

Reply
Kate says · 10.10.12

They don’t sag, but they have plenty of give. ALSO wait for a coupon. Loft is faithful at offering GREAT deals often so I almost never buy things full price. “like” them on Facebook and you’ll be in the know!

If you are looking for jeggings that fit great at a decent price you can also check out New York & co. Fit very nice without the sag.

Love this outfit! 🙂 I just noticed the necklace from your giveaway you had a couple weeks ago. When do you decide on the winners? 🙂 I’m just in love with it and I keep checking everyday to see if the winners were announced. 🙂

On a side note, I follow you on instagram and saw you are about to be in a sprint triathlon! I’m just curious what’s involved in preparing for that. 🙂 I would love to see a blog post about it! 🙂

those are super cute! question… how do they fit around your calf? i’ve got a bit of a larger calf, so it’s really hard to find the proper fitting boots for me.

Ausmerican Housewife says · 10.10.12

Very cute! I hate the “boots over jeans” look but you chickie, you actually pull it off splendiferously!

I have a similar coat in light lavender from Old Navy (Christmas ) and I love it!

Thank you so much for this post. I’ve been looking for new jeans because I lost 30 lbs this year and I wanted to celebrate my new body. I never would have thought to look at Loft for jeans, but thanks to you I did and I LOVE them!!!

This is adorable! You should post some pictures and ideas of how to wear riding type boots, or the type you are wearing, with longish shirts or short thin dresses! Like with tights/leggings and cardigans and skinny belts!(:
