I’m sitting here watching the Golden Globes, and this outfit is starting to look a little less fabulous in comparison. But when I wore it Friday night, I did feel pretty fabulous.

I got these over-the-knee boots a few weeks ago (bandwagon: on it) but that was before my Florida vacation (too hot for boots) and the big snowstorm back at home (too messy for boots this nice). So finally! Here they are! It’s kind of blowing my mind how long my legs look in these babies (and they’re flat). Do I use too many parentheses? (Probably.)

I hope you like these boots because I wore them again on Saturday, so you’ll be seeing those photos soon. By the way, today is the FIRST day of my LAST semester of law school, so wish me luck!

In real life, I do not do chores in cute outfits. This is not Pleasantville. But the upstairs neighbors apparently just got a bird feeder, and there are some very aggressively-eating birds in the area, so my balcony was covered in sunflower seed shells. Since I try to keep it relatively classy here at Sarah’s Real Life, I thought I should tidy up a bit before photos. After all, I wanted you all to look at these pics and marvel at my fantastic loafers without being distracted by some robins’ dinner scraps.

Anywho, this little ensemble came about because I planned to wear this black dress, then put it on and realized it was shorter than I remembered. I was a little worried it was too short for work, but I didn’t have time to think of something else to wear. So I figured if I stuck with flats and went first-lady elegant on top, that it would all even out. Do you think it worked? (only tell me if it did – I have delicate feelings)
