Boots & Basketball Brackets

After Michigan's spurt of summer-like weather a few weeks ago I realized that I soon will have to send my leather riding boots into hibernation!  How sad!  I have worn these boots so many times this past fall and winter and am sad that soon it will be too warm to wear them.  Nobody likes sweaty legs.  I figured I better get in some more of my favorite dark colored pieces before it looks too weird in the upcoming warm weather seasons.


dress: Urban Outfitters | sweater: Gap | leggings: Target | boots: Civico 10
belt: Pitaya | Necklace: Heritage 1981

In other news, this morning I discovered I won first place with my basketball brackets!!  This is so humorous to me because I am probably the least qualified person to have even filled out a bracket.  I know nothing about basketball.  I couldn't even tell you a player's name.  Beginner's luck I suppose!!  My plan is to put the money towards my EUROPE 2013 trip!!

Anyone else have any luck with their basketball brackets this year?

Happy Tuesday!

  1. I love this outfit. It makes me sad that we can't bundle up like it's fall anymore. I guess I should bust out my shorts and tank tops. Congrats on your bracket! I butchered everything but I got the winner right {go kentucky! :)}.

  6. Congrats on your bracket! I also like your attitude about your boots- I've been grumpy about boots lately because it's still cold here and I'm so ready for sandals, but I'm going to turn my attitude around and enjoy my pretty boots while I still can! Thanks!

  12. I'm so sports illiterate...definitely didn't make a bracket! But I've done pretty well with predicting college football outcomes when that season rolls around :)

    Love your dress neckline...perfect for displaying the pretty necklace and the detail is just darling.
