Cold August Nights

Every year Reno hosts Hot August Nights, an event where thousands of classic car owners and fans flock to our city. These August nights have not been so hot.
While I'm not ready to say goodbye to summer weather quite yet, I was pretty happy to pull a couple of my fall and winter staple items out of the closet. Last winter I lived in this sweater, and I love tights because I'm much more comfortable with short skirts and dresses with them on.
Also, I bought these boots about a month ago and haven't actually worn them yet. I couldn't find anything summery for them to go with. I have to confess: these are the first boots I've purchased (aside from a pair of hideous red boots that go with my robin hood costume). I need to invest in a couple of pairs this fall. I don't like western looking boots, and I prefer shorter heels or flat shoes. Time to hunt.

I can't decide if I like the belt with this. Thoughts?

  3. ^ sorry, had to edit
    I love that color blue. I think the belt looks really good too, pulls it together quite nicely.

    And by the way, I really like your blog! I love fashion blogs; they're so much fun. I've thought about doing it or even just making fashion-y posts on my current blog but haven't gotten around to it. I have posted a few of "looks" on a fashion website though. Who can resist the urge to take dramatic modeling pictures?

  4. I like it without the belt better but it is fine with the belt as well. Works either way.
