There was one absolute Shoes-Day favorite of mine this year…the Frye Shirley Artisan Tall Boot. I have worn these several times since I purchased them.

I was able to stretch them out with frozen water in a bag. Then from wearing them enough they stretched a little more in the calf and I was finally able to slip them over some skinny jeans, the Pilcro Stet Ankle Jeans. 

The Quinn Suede Ankle Boots from J Crew Factory were a close second. They have been so versatile and easy to throw on and have gone with a lot of my outfits this season.

I am really loving my Frye Boots and wanted another dress to wear with them since I only have one pair of skinny jeans I can slip them over. I’m glad this dress was around when the Tag Sale started as it’s been on my wishlist for a little while.

I was originally going to order a Medium but it was sold out so I took a chance on the Small. It is a great fit and not tight across the chest as I originally feared. It’s a good length to wear without leggings or tights and the neckline hits at a nice spot and is not too low. And, of course, I love this tunic with my boots!
  
~ Glinted Tee, Silver, Large ~
I grabbed this tee on a whim but am on the fence about keeping it. I think it would look great with a layered necklace in a silver tone but though it’s Silver, it seems a little blah to me. First, it runs small, with the Large fitting like a Medium on me. Second, it’s Linen, so hand-wash only, which I’m sure I’ll forget about and machine wash it causing it to shrink. Lastly, though I know v-necks are flattering and elongate the neckline, I really prefer a crew-neck on tees. 
Anthropologie still has it’s Tag Sale going on. Have you bought anything from it?

Tory Burch launched a promo off all sale items this weekend. Use code NEWYEAR at checkout to get 25% off all items on sale. These are my picks.

I have the Cora Dress in the red print and not this Equestrian one. I love the style and shape of the dress itself I may get this print too. I love my Rayna Dress and have already worn my Cashmere Lizzie Tunic in Stripe a few times. There is some minor pilling under the arms but so far it’s held up to my expectations. I gave MamaBella this one in Black for Christmas and she is planning on wearing it for New Year’s with a sparkly necklace. I would LOVE the Sutton Heel but at 4 inches I would break my ankle after taking a few steps. That makes the Sutton Flat a lot more manageable for me.

And Hooray! This sale runs through January 5th!

J Crew snuck in a small Resort roll-out this week. There’s a mix of early Spring with new printed shorts and swimsuits as well as Winter with additional Cashmere sweaters.

!function(doc,s,id){ var e, p; if(!doc.getElementById(id)) { e = doc.createElement(s); e.id = id; p = ‘//shopsensewidget.shopstyle.com/widget-script.js’; var cb = new Date().getTime(); p += ‘?cb=’ + cb; e.src = p; doc.body.appendChild(e); } if(typeof window.ss_shopsense === ‘object’){ if(doc.readyState === ‘complete’){ window.ss_shopsense.init(); } } }(document, ‘script’, ‘shopsensewidget-script’);
The Pleated Lattice Skirt is back, this time in black. I am hoping some Spring colors are launched in the next few months. A white or ivory would be nice along with a pretty kelly green or bright blue. The Stripe Silk Sleeveless Tank looks like it might drape well and be a pretty layer under a cardigan. The Stripe Short-Sleeve Sweater looks very beachy to me. My store was already sold through on Christmas Eve with only 3 left in stock.
