Hello Boudreau

It's mid-December & it's holiday party time! I have my first holiday party tonight and it's at a fancy hotel on the water. I've been debating what to wear for a while now and finally decided on wide legged pants! Don't get me wrong, I love me some skinny jeans but wide legged pants look so versatile and classy. I've been noticing a reoccurring theme on my style boards lately, & figured it's time to wear 'em. Here's some photos of wide legged pants that I've bookmarked over the past few months:

After I graduate this December I'd love to see some snow. I'd also love to see some snow in some duck boots. They are such a northern winter fashion staple but to us Floridians they're foreign. I think that's why I like them so much.
Check out the snow my best friend LaPetiteFashionista got in Wisconsin on Wednesday! I'm jealous!
Founded by Leon Leonwood Bean [L.L.Bean] himself over 100 years ago, Duck Boots offer a practical solution to a simple problem: how to keep feet comfy in rain, snow, slush- any just about any weather. Why are they called duck boots though? Because the upper half of the boots are made from duck cloth canvas which is water repellant fabric just like duck feathers.
Ok enough freaking history let's look at some videos & pictures.

Terry the bootmaker at L.L.Bean makes it pretty hard to say no, too.

Has anyone else seen "Knocked Up" on E! lately? They have been playing that movie over and over...and over like its the last movie on earth so this song is stuck in my head, naturally.

HAPPY FRIDAY! 11/11/11
Most importantly Happy Veterans Day! So many thanks to all who serve!
Genuinely,

I'm loving the needlepoint look right now. It adds texture to everything. My friend Allyson learned how to needlepoint her own belts! They are amazing, although time consuming. She puts so much effort into them which makes them wonderful heartfelt gifts. I'd love to learn how one day.
Trina Turk's residential line makes for a fun-loving home decor. She has so many options in needlepoint!
