Fall in the midwest

Amazingly, it's Nov. and still nice out. So, I decided to donned on my Sunny Sky dress from Airy Dreams; laid a blanket out in the back yard with a sketch book in hand. I gotta take advantage of this weather before it gets cold and I know it coming.

Wide calves drama!!!

I have always had really big calves even, when I was only 100 lb. And, it really doesn't help that I'm a petit Asian girl with size 6 feet. Finding boots that fits me perfectly, was always a challenge. I never had any luck with those wide calves boots either. However, I have found a few pairs that fit me perfectly thanks to these tips and tricks I learned.

(some of the boots I own)

first: faux leather mid length boots-Charlotte Russe, second: leather over the knee boots-Aldo, third: faux leather knee length boots-F21

1. Faux leather and suede have some stretch to them, which make them easier to mold to your calves.

2. Wear your new boots a few hours for a couple of days to break them in.

3. Opt for a pair of boots without zippers. They're easier to stretch and there won't be zipper imprints on your calves at the end of the day.

4. Go a size up or two and wear thick socks on your feet.

I came across this product online called Boot Band that could help. It's a stretchy extender that could be added to the shafts of your boots with zippers. Although, I have never tried it myself, I thought it's a pretty neat and smart idea. They come in many different sizes, colors, and styles.

Good Luck and happy boots shopping!!!


  

Bargin Shopper

A Rue 21 just opened in my local mall and I decided to look around. I saw this gorgeous pink chiffon maxi skirt and I fell in love instantly. Thankfully, I found the last one in size. I noticed a little rip at the seam, where the skirt and the band are attached. I worked in retail before and I know that a discount could be given to damaged merchandises. A certain percentage could be taken off from the price but it really depends on the store. It was 50% for one of the ones I worked for in the past and 25% for another one. The skirt was $21.00 and I got it for $12.00! That's definitely a score!
