Stripe sweater / Pleated skirt / Seychelles bootie boots / Shoulder bag / Clear earrings / Forever 21 bow jewelry / Dorothy Perkins tan belt

In a few weeks time, I will be journeying to Washington D.C. to do a little research.  But while I'm there, I must make some time for that which I worship, the Smithsonian Institution.  And to make a pilgrimage to mecca, I must look fabulous.  With the new staple green, pleated skirt, stripes, some camel, and my favorite booties, I feel certain that it will be marvelous day.

Now I will be the first one to admit that I am not the biggest fan of Fall (you mean summer is OVER & winter is COMING?!), but I also can't deny that these booties are fabulous.  With simple, dark accessories and a pop of mustard yellow, I am completely in love with this ensemble.

Fall always makes me think of school - just like everyone else, right?  I love & miss packing a bag & getting ready for class & conquering the library.  While all-nighters studying for astronomy aren't the most glorious scenarios, for a morning course & coffee meeting, this ensemble will do the trick.

western neutrals by topazdavis featuring cowgirl boots

H&M long sleeve dress, $16 / Cowgirl boots / Shoulder bag / Wallis brown jewelry / Gold jewelry / Max & Chloe chain necklace

Lately, I have really been favoring cowboy boots {Or should I call them cowgirl boots as an ode to feminism? hmm.}.  And with big boots, the rest of the outfit must be somewhat understand so as not to take away from their fabulousness.  A few gold baubles and the perfect cognac handbag are a felicitous pairing with this ensemble.  Happy Monday!
