FREEZING AS IT IS IN NEW YORK CITY this late October, it may be officially long past due to dust your Autumn-Winter kicks off the shelves.  There are some new booties on the market I am really craving, but the time of the boot has dawned and set. Boots, whether ankle-length or thigh-high, will always be around, but it’s time to usher in the Age of Sneakers… They’re warm, sartorially versatile and meant to tread the harsh terrains of winter. Lemme show ya how I stunt:

1. Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Lo-Tops, here for $50

Ensemble Essentials: Michael by Michael Kors Trenchcoat in Plum and Staring at Stars Romper

2. Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Embroidery Mid-Tops, here for only $21.00!

Yes, the folded-hem look is in for denims, since most of us are not 5’9″.

Ensemble Essentials: Sun & Shadow Cardigan Vest, Theory Deep V-Neck Sweater, and Diesel Deep-Distressed Jeans

3. Converse CONS Weapon, ON SALE for $60!

“The key to feminizing CONS Weapon is wearing them with a long, sleek jacket or cardigan and dark cigarette jeans.”
