headwest outfitters…

~ a new opportunity has come knocking at my door (ok, email inbox) and i get to tell ya about it!

HeadWest Outfitters and I are going to be featuring a new item here on my little ol’ blog each month!!

this month’s item is…

headwest

~ they ship all across the USA and Canada (!!) and when this cute little dress arrived, my daughter was quick to attempt to lay claim…i am actually dreading the day when we wear the same size, i have a strong feeling things are going to go missing from my closet on a regular basis!!!

~ the dress is sooo soft and the beading is really nice, and VERY well sewn, i always worry about stuff like that…i am SOO not a dry-clean only kinda gal!

~ the color is described as black, but appears to be more dark, dark brown than black. but i think if you wanted to wear it with black, it would still look great! the material is a soft jersey type fabric that would be nice and cool in the summer and be easy to layer come cooler weather.

~ unfortunately, the size large didn’t quite fit my, uh, chest area (still rocking my mommy curves) but my sister was more than willing to step up and model for me!!! i just threw it together with a pair of brown frye boots (vanessa) and aviators. we also added a hudson bay blanket and some hunter wellies for some fun!!

Fall/Winter shopping continued!

This is a topic that I could and might go on about forever…so please. Someone stop me! :)

A few more suggestions for Becky to keep a lookout for are…

cable

Cable knit is one of those items that will be used a lot and be in fashion for, well, ever!

fur

Now I know fur is a hot topic. I like it. It is warm during our winters and we all know those last until, well, June….so you will get to wear it often!!

And that’s it. I think all of these are some classic fall/winter items that when paired with all your basics…will last a long time!!!

Anything I missed?!?!

my husband’s BootBarn boots!

Well, eons ago I promised an actual review of the boots that the fabulous BootBarn sent him.

boot barn

I got him to put them on again (men are stubborn things!) and he loves them.

Gawd, I like saying I told you so

They stretched out within the first hour or two of wearing them, and he hasn’t complained mentioned that they are tight since…and as we all know, our farmers are on their feet from sun up to sun down…and during harvest, can be on their feet until the wee hours of the morning too. The boots have taken the workout in stride and show no signs of breaking down anytime soon. The heels/soles aren’t slippery, important for when he is climbing ladders to check bins or equipment. They keep his feet cool when they need to be and warm when the sun goes down. The only suggestion he has had is that it would be nice if the side pullup thingys were holes in the boots as opposed to loops. Working-man hands have large joints and he can’t get them in the loops. But that’s it! He would recommend these to anyone and that is saying A LOT. Farmers are a picky breed and things have to be pretty good to pass their judgement!

~ thanks again to BootBarn for sending him a pair…he was in dire need and they came just in time!!!
