Prowl Around // Leopard Midi Dress + Tall Boots

For a winning fall combo, look no further than A.) Leopard print, B.) Midi dress, or C.) Under-the-knee boots. Bonus points for choosing all of the above ;)

The dress silhouette of the season, a midi is timeless and sophisticated. But don’t confuse those adjectives for boring - or uninspired. This style is fresher than ever in a modern print and ruffle details. Even my fellow shorties can rock this trend! At under 5’2”, I bought this baby from Banana Republic in a 2 Petite. The key is for it to hit at your calf.

It used to be all about the over-the-knee boot. Well folks, the under-the-knee boot is now back in style. I got these Frye rider boots for Christmas back in 2011. I wore them all through college but honestly haven’t touched them as much since. This season, I’ve brought them out of hiding with vengeance and I can’t wait to start styling them again!

[dress: Banana Republic // boots: Frye (old, but I also like this pair) // belt: Something Navy via Nordstrom (I also like this one) // bag: MANGO  // sunglasses: Linda Farrow x The Row (similar pair here) // earrings: Kendra Scott // lip color: Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in "Bondage"]

Despite the lingering summer (full disclosure: we took these photos in 82 degree heat), I’ve been diving into fall fashion head first. For example, I’m not normally a belt girl, but I decided to give them a try after seeing statement belts ALL over the Fashion Month street style scene. Experimenting is half the fun of a new season, and I’m so pumped to show you what else I have in store!
