Fall Casual Style

Happy Thursday loves! It's technically my Friday so I'm super excited! And before I start today's post I wanted to give a huge shout out to my bestie, Kerri. It's her birthday!!! Ok, now onto the post, yesterday was super busy at work so it will be nice to have some extra down time this weekend to catch up and relax. Speaking of, sorry for my absence yesterday. It was hectic and my phone kept getting used for commercial and photography shots so responding to emails wasn't really an option. So, earlier this week we got another little sneak peek of fall weather so I took full advantage and busted out the destroyed skinny jeans and booties. You might remember these booties from a Friday Favorites post I did a few weeks ago and thanks to some encouragement from you guys I finally broke down and got them! Man am I glad I did too! They are so comfy and cute and I love the color!
Ok, enough about the booties. Lately I've been loving the more slightly destroyed denim look which is odd for me since until recently I didn't even like destroyed denim at all. But I've really been digging the "busted knee" destroyed look especially but with me being so short I was having a hard time finding a pair that I really loved that weren't $200+. Don't get me wrong, I am all about spending some money on a good pair of jeans but I just had a hard time justifying spending that much on a pair that were already ripped. I'm sure that sounds silly, especially coming from a "fashion" blogger but it's true! And ignore my awful hair in this post, it was super windy and my hair was not cooperating!

    Those booties are SO cute! I love the top and the jeans, the whole look! It is definitely a little crazy to spend tons on ripped jeans, so I think I am with you on finding the perfect affordable pair!!

    Those booties are so cute! I love the way you styled them with the jeans. Normally I don't like ripped jeans either (I totally understand why my dad would complain about me buying things that were ripped when I was younger), but these really work with the outfit! Happy Friday to you, I'm definitely jealous!

    I hear ya, I have a hard time spending the $$$ on distressed denim too! I just got some very similar to these from J.crew factory (on sale too!) and even though I didn't pay too much for them, I find myself being very careful like, bending down and things because I don't want to rip the knee-holes even more. BUT, if they are not holey (word? lol) I'll definitely pay a little more. And your hair looks great! I don't know what you're talking about ;)

    I am a sucker for distressed jeans. It seems to be the only item I've been wearing almost on a daily basis! I just need to find me a nice pair of black ones and I'll be set! BTW I love those booties :)

    ohhh love this look girl! the booties are fabulous. i feel you on the ripped jeans, because i am somewhat tall, i have the darndest time finding ones that don't sit right ON the knee - because when they do, it rips even more, you know? it's so hard to find jeans that have a ripped hole under the knee lol.
    ps. not sure if you are updating your blog or whatnot (i am haha) but your about me picture is gone? photobucket link? just wanted to let you know. hope you're having a good weekend!
