These over-the-knee boots were probably one of my favorite purchases of last fall/winter. Last weekend I knew I wanted to wear this sweatshirt (it was my last unworn item from my latest Le Tote shipment) and my new black hat for a trip to the zoo. Then I realized my trusty OTK boots would be the perfect way to complete the look.

The only problem? My boots – and the rest of my cold-weather clothes – were in “the warehouse.”

The warehouse is what we call the storage area in our apartment. I could try to paint a picture for you, but nothing can really prepare you for what you’ll find in the warehouse. Laundry detergent. Tool boxes. Wrapping paper. Musical instruments. Folding chairs. A wooden coat rack with cats on it (what?). These are all actual things I had to wade through to get to the plastic tubs that hold my out-of-season clothes. Not surprisingly, the boots were at the bottom of the third tub, but I found them!

In sum: my house might be messy, but at least I look awesome.

Saturday was a fun and busy day for me. First of all, I got my first pumpkin spice latte of the season, so that’s a big deal. Then I went and got a free makeover at Nordstrom, so I spent the second half of the day looking way more glamorous than I do here. You can see my “after” photo on Instagram. After that, I stopped by one of my favorite local boutiques, Lucky B, to see their brand new store, drink some champagne, and shop! Finally, I went to a party. Like a real one with young people that started at 10:30pm. I know! I stopped being an old lady (just temporarily, of course) and it actually wasn’t bad.

And this is what I wore for my PSL-drinking, makeover-getting, champagne-shopping, party-hardying day. Have a good one!
