If you’re starting to think about fall shopping, boots are likely at the top of your list… or at least they should be. I recently snagged these beauties (also seen in this post) at Nordstrom and have worn them a ton since opening the box two weeks ago. They’re actually super comfortable, despite the fact that for some reason peep-toe booties often tend to be quite uncomfortable for me. This has to do with (a) the fact that the actual word “bootie” (only when referencing the above-ankle footwear that is still too diminutive to achieve full-fledged “boot” status) makes me inexplicably uncomfortable; and (b) the sad reality that the act of walking in said near-boot footwear (particularly of the peep-toe variety) usually hurts like woah. However, this pair is truly so comfortable that I recently wore them to a post-flight meeting in London―which is unprecedented since I generally refuse to wear anything remotely resembling heels in the immediate aftermath of deboarding aircraft (read: Swollen, Jet-Lagged and Angry Hangry).
If you’re in the market for a fresh pair of booties (agh just typing it hurts me) or even just good ol’ fashioned boots for fall, check out Nordstrom’s near-endless selection. I’m currently having a very tough time resisting these ones, these ones, and these ones. Nordstrom is basically boot shopping heaven, which I’m growing increasingly certain will be the cause of my demise. Death by boot overdose. That’s an embarrassing way to go.

Haha, I am SO glad I'm not the only one who hates the word “bootie.” It sounds like an innappropriate abbreviation of a word, even though that's actually what they're called. Love the zip detail on that skirt!
Great look! You look stunning!XX

A super polished look, but love how 'tough' the zips and all make it – not at all girly, but still super feminine. P x

Love the booties!
superb collection of footwear
Great outfit! Last week-end I bought three new pairs of fall boots. I'm calling them short boots since booties sounds too much like something you knit for a baby. 🙂
I love that jacket! The details are very unique. This is a great early fall look.

I haven't purchased any booties for the season yet, but recently I've been into pencil skirts and tucked in blouses. I really love the print on your skirt and adore how masterly you combined it with a leather jacket. Very nice outfit!
