I’m happy to announce yet another successful fulfillment of my fall shopping list: wedge ankle boots. I originally had my eye (both of my eyes, actually) on the new TOMS boots, but I found these very similar ones at Target for less than half the price. Although, when you think about, with TOMS you’re actually buying two pairs of shoes, and you’re helping someone in need. However, I have several big-ish ticket items on the list, so I wanted to save where I could. Don’t worry, I’ll donate some money to charity around Christmas or something 😉

This is what I wore to class on Saturday (it’s been 4 weeks but “class” and “Saturday” still don’t sound like they should go together). The boots were super comfortable and I didn’t feel like I was wearing a heel, which is definitely important when I’m carrying around all the extra weight of books and a laptop. And can we talk about how the color looks so great with mustard yellow? Because it does.

Boots available at Target, also in black

Jeans available at LOFT in various colors

Shirt available at Forever 21

20120911-141931.jpgWelcome to a typical Sunday outfit – which I am showing to you on a Wednesday just to keep you guessing. (Sarah’s Real Life – What WILL she do next?!) This past Sunday was a beautiful sunny day, but temps were hovering around 70, so I decided on a mix of light fall layers and summer colors. And can I just mention how much I love scarves? I know some people would rather remove their own eyeballs than wear something around their neck all day, but those people are deranged. Scarves are cute; they’re comfy; they’re cozy. In fact, if you just had your eyeballs removed, you might feel better if you sought comfort in a nice scarf. Give me your address and I’ll send you one.
