Hope everyone had a fun Super Bowl weekend! We had consistent snow fall all day long yesterday with 8-10 inches of accumulation. Needless to say, we had a small turnout for the Super Bowl party at our house but the game more than compensated for the small number. And if you enjoy a good game, don’t forget to scroll down to the bottom of this post. I’ve got a little treat for you.
I did some shopping in my closet this past weekend and came up with this fur and flare number. I was on a mission to find fall season items that hadn’t been worn in a while, and that I could possibly transition into winter. You’ve seen this fur vest before here and the flare skirt I wore back in September here. I love pieces that I can wear for multiple seasons.
Now, can we talk about the boots?! I shared that I was hunting for tan boots here. I had finally found ones that I liked here. Even though I’m really happy with the riding boots that I chose, it still left me wishing for tan boots with a bit of a heel. So you can imagine how thrilled I was when DUO sent me this beautiful pair. As soon as I opened the box, I was smitten. First of all, it’s a beautiful shade of tan, it’s surprisingly light in weight and the leather is supple and comfortable. The best part is that they fit like a glove because they’re custom fit! Yes, DUO Boots can actually tailor fit your boot calf circumference down to the centimeter. Now is a great time to pick out a pair of DUO boots because they have a huge selection on sale. Don’t wait too long, sizes are running out fast!

This is such a fun look, especially with the snow in the background. When I recently shopped my closet, I also found a fur piece and a fit and flare skirt. It’s amazing how many awesome things we have in the back of our closets.
