Fall Footwear: The Essentials

Transitioning your closet for fall can be an exciting but daunting process. Here in North Carolina, the weather is just starting to cool off enough to really pull out those quintessential fall pieces and finally pack away the shorts, maxi dresses, and wedges. This year I have decided to slim down my fall closet and focus on a few really essential pieces. 

In order to be prepared for a wide variety of fall activities it's necessary to make sure you have covered the basics. Here are my picks for fall essentials; the classic pump with an edgy and updated twist, a great pair or booties that you can pair with a casual sweater and jeans for the daytime or dress up with a great blouse or dress in the evening, a staple pair of black flats, and an easy go-to pair of over the knee boots. 

While we are well into October we are still experiencing 70 to 75 degree days here. This was one of the toughest adjustments for me last year after living in Chicago where you can pull your heaviest sweaters and riding boots out around September 15th without looking too enthusiastic. This year I am slowing it down and appreciating the opportunity to wear my fall favorites without feeling compelled to grab my floor-length down parka.
