Rain Boots on a Budget...

If you haven't been living under a rock, you probably know that rain boots are all the rage these days; colorful rain boots at that. Hunters Boots are very on trend right now. I have been wanting a pair for a very long time, but I just can't justify it. The average pair of Hunters are $140.00! My husband and I are newlyweds (sort of) and we are both in college. So there just isn't room in our budget for $140 boots.

I have been looking around for some similar rain boots that have the look and quality of the Hunter Boots with a much smaller price tag and here some great options I have found...

Which ones are your favorites? I am eyeing the Navy Polka Dot wellies and I am hoping that I will find them underneath my Christmas tree this year :)

Have a great weekend!

How We Wore It: Fall Plaid

Happy Thursday! I hope you are all having a good week. I am so excited because today I am teaming up with Katie from Style Diary Blog to show you how we style fall plaid. Katie and I recently 'met' via instagram because we realized we have the same doppleganger- Shailene Woodley. I think Katie looks more like her then I do. However, we decided that since we look like each other, we had to do a fun collaboration together!

There are so many patterns that can be worn continuously in the fall and plaid is one of them. It is such a great pattern that can be layered and worn in so many ways. Katie works a full-time job, so she made her outfit office-appropriate with a fabulous plaid blazer and a pencil skirt. As many of you know, I am a full-time student, so I kept my look casual and comfortable by mixing patterns.
