Do you ever feel like your outfit is just 'bleh,' bland, blah, boring? I do, all the time. For instance, today I was running late, and trying to get dressed for work. All my brain could put together were these black skinny jeans from Urban Outfitters, and this tan turtleneck from Banana Republic. By themselves, kind of a dull outfit, sure. But if you spice it up with some knee-high suede boots, then it becomes a fun outfit.
These skinny jeans from Urban, are tight, not gonna lie. They're form-fitting, and at times can cut-off my circulation, but I do like the way my butt looks in them. I will give Urban credit, though; these jeans have maintained their black color way better than a pair from American Eagle did.
One thing I like about Banana Republic is that they have a petites section. I'm 5'3," and regular sizes tend to fit width-wise, but length-wise it can be too long. This sweater hits just right at the start of my hips, instead of below them, and the color, which my mom calls cognac, is so great for fall and winter outfits.
Finally, the boots are from Sam Edelman. I wouldn't say they're as comfortable as flats, but for boots with heels they are so comfy. I get compliments on them all the time. Just note that they are suede, the worst material for wet weather of any kind.
As the third part of my adulting experience comes to an end, I've realized some major things. One: Being adult can sometimes be more about dressing appropriately. Two: Always think about your accessories; they can make your outfit. Three: A good pair of heels goes a long way!
