Outfit Inspiration for Fall with White Boots
When I received my white boots (thrifted in Arizona, see blog post here), the first thing I did was browse Pinterest to find some ideas on how to style them. When I pin ideas, I make sure that I am pinning outfits that I can recreate with what is already in my closet and not something that I would have to go out and buy. I pinned several ideas and this was one of my favorites.
White boots, brown pattern skirt, white top and oversized denim jacket: you can definitely see the inspiration of the outfit in mine even though the pieces are not identical, but similar. I do not like the material that slip skirts and dresses are made of, so I have learned not to buy them. Midi skirts are not my favorite length, but I have found that the right pair of shoes makes a difference in how much I like an outfit with them.
When I put this outfit on, I realized how much I like boots with midi length! I have just a few skirts in that length, but now I know that if I wear cowboy boots with them, I am sure likely to love the outfit! I have quite a few denim jackets and I often try several on before choosing the one I will wear. Since I was replicating an outfit, I knew this was the one I would wear as it fits a little more oversized than my other ones.
I shot a number of fall outfits this particular week: my oldest (who was about to go to college at the time) was low on funds as he always tends to be, so I decided to be nice and shoot a lot of my fall inspiration ideas in anticipation of fall. It was mid July and for once the temperatures were in the mid 80s instead of mid 90s. I was actually not uncomfortable in these layers, but the boots did make me a little hot.
Since I was not going to wear this outfit anytime soon, I made a mental note to wear it this fall. It will be perfect for church! I am wearing a little embroidered necklace I bought in the Republic of Georgia. I love little inexpensive souvenirs like this that remind me of a fun vacation!
Do you still find inspiration from Pinterest? I love searching there when I have a special item I am unsure how to style several ways: I looked there when I bought my red tulle skirt and found many ideas I could replicate from my closet.

I do enjoy some Pinterst outfit inpiration from time to time; though I have a harder time searching when I have a specific item I own in mind than when I just scroll something more broad like “fall outfits.”

That’s funny because that is the opposite for me.

I have to admit, I never liked midi skirts until a couple of years ago. Especially in the summer, I wear them because they have flow but coverage.
Those boots are the best, aren’t they??

I still don’t love them but I have found a few ways that I like wearing them.

This outfit is soooooo good, Mireille! I really like the skirt with those boots. I love a good midi skirt, but most of the time, they end up being maxi skirts on me!

It’s funny because it’s definitely my least favorite length.

I have been surprised how much fun I have styling them!

That’s the way I would wear it! And I do have such a pair of boots! Love it with a dress too!
mimifce
Thanks, Nancy! They should work with all of your dresses and skirts!

I don’t have white boots, but I love them on everyone else. I just haven’t found the right pair yet. These are so cute on you! I love how you wore them!

I love them more than I thought I would.

Spot on interpretation. I like the length of your skirt and your boots. I have some short white cowboy/girl boots that I didn’t get to wear at all this summer. Just hope I can still wear them when this foot heals. This is the perfect example of how a few staple pieces – denim jacket, white tee, skirt can create such a timeless look.

Once your foot it all good, look up for some inspiration! I feel like I saw a couple bloggers sporting some short ones!
Jill
I love everything about this outfit! Those boots are fabulous!

Love the way this outfit came together with a little help from Pinterest! It looks great on you and the proportions are just perfect. I like to get in my closet and find things that I don’t wear very often, and try to find new and different ways to put them together. This is a great example of that, and such a good feeling! Thanks for sharing and hope you enjoy your weekend!

Thanks, Di! That’s exactly what I have been doing lately! I did the same with a couple pieces today for some upcoming blog posts.
