lookbook: winter boots

I am officially in winter mode. All my winter clothes and shoes are out and we've pulled out the down comforter for our bed. I bought these boots a few years ago and they are still one of my favorite boots for the winter. I can walk in them for hours and they never hurt my feet and they look pretty dang cool!

And um yea, these pictures are kinda silly but I had to make do when J was out for the afternoon and not able to take my picture!

What I'm wearing:
Sweater: Banana Republic
Skirt: Aritzia
Leggings: Forever21
Boots: BCBG
Hat: Forever21

I like this skirt as it is pretty versatile, I can wear it as a slim pencil skirt down to my knees or I can pull it up like I did here. The only problem is that the waist bunches when I pull it up so that's why I have that weird wrinkle around my midsection in the middle picture.

Leggings have been my favorite thing for the winter. I am always cold but I love wearing dresses and skirts so it is great when I can wear leggings with my skirts as it keeps me a bit warmer. I'm a bit of a cheapskate when it comes to leggings so I just get them all at Forever 21. I have about 12 pairs from there. haha! I don't do laundry that often so I just stockpile my staples. Oh and these ribbed cuff ones are my favorites! They are thicker than their regular leggings and the waistband is pretty comfy.

I have yet to get into the shiny leggings like Miss Lohan here and several other fashion bloggers. Not sure if I have the guts or the personality to pull them off. I am kind of into these zipper ones, but seriously who wants to pay $123 for some leggings?
