Liam is adorable. I love how little kids get so into cleaning. Too bad it doesn’t (usually) last!

Love that sweater dress!

such cute stuff! for boots that are flat & comfy – i recommend steve madden. i bought the black slouch boots a few months back and wear them non-stop. they look adorable with leggings & jeans and can be dressed up OR down!

I love when I get to go home and go shopping with my Mom. I’m heading home for Thanksgiving and can’t wait!

Loving Old Navy lately. They are really stepping it up.

So, boots are a major issue for me and my 18 inch Calves (yep, my calves are a foot and a half in diameter, and that’s mostly muscle!) Add to that the fact that I’m 5’3″ and you’ve got a recipe for no knee high boots.

I checked online for boots at Macy’s — many of theirs are make for a 6 inch calf (yea, 1/3 the size of mine!).

I ended up finding a pair at DSW that I love and also found some at Famous Footwear that had some stretch in the back. If you got a bigger calf, look for ones that fit an “athletic” calf. Best recommendation is to keep looking and trying on. Also, ladies with a larger calf should check plus size stores like Avenue, because they carry bigger boots.

Good luck!

Love the dress! I tried on a sweater dresses couple last week at Macy’s, but they were so short on me and didn’t fit right.

I am in the hunt for high black boots as well. I’m trying to decide if I want riding boots or ones with heels. I usually go with the Clarks or Naturalizer brands since comfort is key for me and they need to fit around my big calves. Did you check out Zappos?

Oh I know how difficult finding the right boots is!! I’m trying to find some flat knee high or calf high black boots… you’d think this is relatively easy but I’ve not found anything that fits yet!!!

Your nephew is too cute!!

Have a great week xx

Such a fun weekend!!! I gotta tell you…I freaking love Old Navy. Pretty much everything I have bought recently is from there…they have some really cute stuff right now! And – I LOVE that sweater dress. I saw it awhile back but didn’t end up buying it, and now it’s gone from my Old Navy!!! So sad. Sniffle.

Cute dress!!

And I have had zero luck with boots myself – the only reason I have a pair is because they were $20 and I just guessed – and got lucky.

Oh sweater dresses, how I love thee! Even if you’re short you can wear ankle booties – I just bought some on major clearance at DSW and love them! (Just be sure to wear dresses that are above the knee so you don’t look dowdy or shorter). Seriously – your nephew is adorable!
