Mens Post: Ankle Boots

Mens ankle boots come in many forms and many names; Chukkas, Beatle Boots, Chelsea Boots - to name a few. Though they have a number of names their uses are far more abundant. I reckon a man could get away with owning only four pairs of shoes; a black dress shoe, a running shoe, a boat shoe (Men don't wear flip flops, boys do) and a great versatile ankle boot. Given the plethora of boot styles out there this boot can be the most telling of a mans personal style. Whether it is a slim line leather lace up or and earthy suede chukka, their is a pair out there for every man. I've compiled a few to get you started of many varying styles, and when you only need one go ahead and invest a little more so maybe you can go three years between shopping excursions instead of just one ;)

Also because it seems men like to shop in one fast sweep I have selected all the boots from Nordstrom- one stop shopping from a place with excellent customer service!

Birthday Foxes

Fox Blouse Detail

Today is my birthday and I share it with my twin sister. We are full-on identical twins, which is awesome; we both feel bad for people that don't have twins because we can't imagine life without each other. Happy Birthday, Terrie, I love you and think you are the best! This year I have received some fox-themed birthday gifts and wishes, but my absolute favorite came from my absolute favorite twin sister. It is a pretty sweet fox blouse that I've had my eye on. I had my husband take a few pictures for me to share because my look today showcases the majority of my blog posts so far in action while highlighting my foxy gift.

I also woke up to this little guy on a handmade card from my husband:
