I've been craving a blanket-like accessory all Winter long. I finally found one. I love the comfort of just throwing on one big piece over your other layers. It's systematically comfortable and cool.
I got these very Superhero worthy over the knee boots about a month ago. I finally got the opportunity to debut them, at a Barbecue party in the park yesterday. Roasting marshmallows, listening to mix CD's with friends and laughing at the silliest of things made for a fun night.
As a kid one of my favorite fairy tales was The Little Match Girl.
Many thanks for the weardrobe 100 feature - the best of 2009 street style
from the top fashion blogs online. *Fashion Chalet is on page 50.

love that poncho!
The print on the cape is gorgeous - the whole look is flawless.
What a cute concept the little match girl was such a cute story. I like how you're "trying to stay warm" by the fire pit, and then "knocking" on a door. Very cute. THAT PONCHO IS ACE. And what can I say about the boots? JAW. DROPS! ;)

I need that poncho in my life, more than I've needed any other piece of clothing right now!
I've always liked the idea of just throwing something over your outfir and then being totally comfortable.
That is so good that you were having a fun night out with your friends. I'm really happy for you!
That weardrobe "book" is really great to look at!! Can you buy it as an actual book too? I HAVE to have it. It's so cool because you feel as if you "know" the bloggers :)
WHAT?! That Stylish Wanderer girl is only 14?? I would never have guessed!! And there's beautiful Erika!! I have to get that book.
And there's even someone from my hometown featured in it!!!
So sad! I didn't find that book on amazon!
Well...
Love the bag! Gorgeous with the stud pattern :)

the shoes you asked about
they were a birthday gift from my mother in law, she gave me a mexican catalog & asked me to choose, after i saw them i knew i didnt have to flip another page, lol.
surprisingly they are the best for walking with out even the littlest pain the name of the catalog is "terra"
best of luck getting them!

bought that same poncho for my sister for christmas! love and i loveeeee the look of all of your pictures lately!!! GREAT boots!!
i have to agree with you, i own two of the same one you're wearing. i love that they're thicker, like flannel and i tend to wear them around the house like a blanket, or in the car it becomes very handy, but i mostly wear them around my neck as huge scarves. I'd been looking for huge scarves that were suitable for heavy duty heavy and these are perfect!

You wear all my favorite.
