Pants Made of Dreams & the Perfect Song for Fall

Meet the track pants of my dreams. Buy here.
Track pants. Something that would normally be considered the opposite of high fashion. That is until Phillip Lim got his hands on them and voila high fashion and sports collide into a not too ridiculous pant. That is, of course, if you have an affinity for sequins and quirky leg ware. I happen to have both. While these $1,500 pants are fun to dream and blog about the question is where would you wear them? The answer: anywhere your dreams can take you. Namely, Vegas, NYC... Roak? JK.

Now for the band I have on repeat right now: Alt-J. Which when you type into your keyboard is a delta sign (aka the sign for change)... I'd do it right here for you in blogger, but alas it is not allowed so you will just have to take my word for it.

Trend I Love: Moto-Butch Booties


L-to-R: Chloe/ Givenchy/ See by Chloe/ Marc Jacobs/ Golden Goose (ok, these are brown - who cares?)

Something about the winter (or what we call winter in Texas - it's going to be 79 degrees today) makes me get really moto-butch. Like I really cannot get enough of the color black especially on leather goods. One glance into my closet and you will see what I mean. Black flat knee boots, black over the knee boots, black wedge slouchy boots, black heeled booties... You name it - if it is a black boot I probably have it. OR SO I THOUGHT... Until I was browsing SSENSE.com (ps their site is amazing? the never ending scroll is my favorite.) and came across a plethora of little black leather booties. And low and behold I purchased some. I can't wait to wear them with skinny jeans or with a dress/skirt combo for work. My toes will be warm, my feet will be comfortable and my legs won't be sweating (did I mention it's going to be nearly 80 today??). I picked out some of my faves above, but this bad boy by Belle Sigerson Morrison caught my eye the most... I just really love the suede and leather combo and the slits in the back of the boots - very Peter Pan-ish with a moto-butch edge. Perfection.

Black Combo Kirk Pixie Boots. Don't mind if I do.

Jordan! So dreamy!
A word to the wise: This look gets literal real fast so choose your booties carefully. Black flat combo boots without feminine details look real bad real fast and not in a good way. They are just one step away from the '90s Doc Martins (that are supposedly back in: NOT to me) you wanted so bad after seeing that episode of My So Called Life.

New Vampire Weekend!

[via Noisey] So handsome, so preppy. Even in their adorable skeleton makeup. 

YSL Pumps + Lady Gaga Inspo = MAGIC

Did I mention that the mirrored heel is also to die for and that I would accept these at any point as a gift? Mother Monster (aka Neiman Marcus) says buy them here
