BEST OF: FALL BOOTS, HEELS AND FLATS

The Steele Maiden: Must Have Fall Boots, Heels and Flats

Is it just me or are Fall shoes the absolute best? Rich suede boots, fun little flats and the most decadent heels – I’ll take them all over sandals any day. As we speak I’m trying desperately to cram every last pair in my suitcase (did I mention Adam and I are headed off on a big trip Thursday night? Be sure you’re following on Instagram to see where we land!), but since I can’t take them all.. I figured I’d leave you with all of these to swoon over.

BOOTS & BOOTIES

From patent ankle booties to suede sock boots to slouchy knee high versions, Fall begs for a new pair of boots. Stick to versatile neutral shades and look for special details like wood heels or a touch of shearling.

SNEAKERS & FLATS

Embellished, plaid flannel, leopard print – sneakers & flats are more fun than ever this fall. Use them as an exclamation point on an otherwise casual outfit.

HEELS

Get ready for party season in pearl-studded, velvet ankle-strapped, or fire-starter red heels.

MONOCHROME NAVY: PLEATED MINI SKIRT AND PATENT LOAFERS

The Steele Maiden: Navy Monochrome - Pleated Mini Skirt and Patent Loafers

To me, navy has always been the new black. Maybe it’s because of my complexion or light hair and features – but black has always felt somewhat harsh to wear all over for me. Navy on the other hand has a slight softness, but still feels classic and chic.

WHERE MY SEBAGOS TAKE ME

The Steele Maiden: Sebago Shoes at the Lake

While life in the city typically means heels on the go, life at the lake calls for shoes that feel more laid back and comfortable. Shoes that I can kick my feet up in or toss off into the boat. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want them to still be cute. Which is wear Sebago comes in. I actually first wore the brand last summer at the lake (in this post) and fell in love with their easy going attitude and comfy fit. So this summer, I knew I wanted to stock my lake wardrobe with a few more pairs. Here – exactly where my Sebagos take me when I escape the city hustle for some peace and quiet by the lake.

NYFW DAY 1: SEVENTIES INSPIRED STYLE

The Steele Maiden: NYFW Street Style - Suede dress, Metallic Tassel Loafers and Olive Green Satchel

When it comes to New York Fashion Week (NYFW) – they say ‘go big or go home’. And while I still always want to feel like myself (especially as I’m meeting new brands/bloggers and representing my own brand), I definitely like to be bolder than the other 50 weeks of the year. For me – that means picking a few of the season’s biggest trends and really playing them up. On my first day of shows/events I went for a ‘Seventies inspired flight attendant’ vibe featuring this suede dress, structured handbag and metallic tassel loafers.

GINGHAM AND TRENCH COAT

Spring style: trench coat and gingham shirt

When you’re knee deep in the middle of the work week (not to mention that Adam and I are busy prepping to head out on a little adventure this week.. my favorite kind of busy), I always find myself reaching for the most classic items in my closet. The kind of things you can grab and go without spending more than 5 minutes thinking it over.
