Boots as Pants

Short post from me today, my friends. I had an (early) birthday celebration with a ton of friends on Saturday night, and there was a serious Sunday night struggle situation happening last night.

… It was well worth it, though!

In sum: Champagne, Fireball and lots of dancing. Jess even over-nighted a Momofuku cake from New York for the celebration. (If you’ve never had Momofuku’s cake balls, you absolutely need to.)

On a separate note, I’m pretty sure I could write a book titled “boots as pants,” as that’s been my seasonal MO ever since the temperatures began to turn.

You know how much I love this pair — I have ’em in black, too, and they’re the ones I wore out all weekend long. Surprisingly comfortable — slash dance floor approved. (If you’re thinking of purchasing, get your normal shoe size; not your boot size.)

I’ve finishing up a lot of my holiday-related content this week, so check in before (and after!) the holiday for gift guides, Cyber Monday sales to bookmark and a detailed post about my Black Friday shopping strategies.

In the meantime, get back to work! Safe travels wherever your plans are taking you this week…
