But these rose-embroidered boots, though.
The last night of Kansas City Fashion Week meant all the stops, fashion-wise. In keeping with my skinnies-and-a-jacket theme, I thought a pair of faux leather pants and a gold leather jacket appropriate. Talk about rock ‘n roll. I layered a silk bodysuit under (still in stock at Zara, by the way) the jacket and broke in a new pair of amazing embroidered boots as a killer punctuation piece. (Such a steal at $60; they seriously seem like they carry way more hefty of a price tag).
The resulting outfit? Loud, lots of texture, but really comfortable. (Believe it or not.) The faux leather pants have a lot of stretch, so they felt more like leggings. A silk bodysuit? Like pj’s. The boots have a heel, but it’s manageable and I stomped around KCFW (and the city for the shoot) all night long and my feet were a-okay. And you guys know how comfortable I am in a leather jacket. So while this outfit packed a lot of style punch, it wasn’t really much different than wearing a pair of jeans and a tee.
Shop the look:
I am so smitten over these embroidered boots. They will obviously work with jeans, but I’m curious how they’ll play with a girly spring dress. Could be a fashion match made in heaven.
