Ready For Combat!

I know I should be shot for thinking about boots when it's this hot out (and seriously it's hot-try 100 degrees). But we fashion forward know the hottest new fashions are always displayed way before their time (I will be hitting Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale tomorrow for the new Fall stuff for a fraction of the price-wish me luck). The one item I can't wait to get my hands on are a pair of rugged, combat boots. I think they're the perfect addition to pair with skinny jeans, cargos or last year's leather leggings (I'm still in love with my mine, you'd have to pay me to stop wearing them). If all else fails, in a dark alley they're probably heavy enough to be a good weapon.

The gray suede texture on these boots give combat boots and more pulled together look.

Oh REALLY?!

Welcome back from a long Fourth of July weekend. I've come to realize in my time off that two unexpected things have the ability to suck me in: The Real Housewives of New Jersey (by far the craziest people I've ever encountered on television, yes crazier than Atlanta) and late night infomercials (hey I'm stretching out my time off I would dare go to sleep early). Now some of these infomercials may actually have some purpose (Brazilian Booty Lift, Bare Minerals- I get it) but after seeing the infomercial for the Bandinis arm weights/bracelets I actually want these people arrested. They claim you can wear these bracelet weights while doing errands, your hair, driving, etc and then wear them out all day as a fashion accessory. Who can actually get away with wearing these atrocities, Wonder Woman? I thought it was a spoof from Saturday Night Live, but to my horror these people are serious. They claim Bandinis are fashionable with any outfit. If you believe that I have some vacation property I'd like to sell you in Iraq and you just might be crazier than one of those Housewives from New Jersey.
