splurge save steal: the ankle bootie.

Another closet staple that I’m on the hunt for this fall is the perfect ankle bootie.  As you know, comfort is key to running around the city and a chunky heel will definitely keep you on your feet for hours (a few of my blogger friends can testify!).  Naturally, the Rag & Bone Harrow Bootie would be at the top of my wish list — that is, if I had half a grand to drop on a pair of shoes.  Lucky for us, I found a few budget-friendly options that make for quite the steal.  Your wallet and your feet can thank me later!

As an Arizona girl living in NYC, fall is a bit of a strange season to me.  I’m used to the weather going from scorching to freezing in a matter of two weeks, which is why I’m completely unprepared for an entire season dedicated to transition.  I’m on the hunt for a new jacket to keep cozy while the temps slowly drop and the moto jacket is on the top of my list.  Check out a few of my favorite options and let me know which ones you’d rock!
