How I Wore It :: Santa Fe Bound

Biz and I went to Santa Fe last weekend for a quick pre-baby getaway and had such a nice time. The weather was perfect - crisp in the morning with lovely sunshine in the afternoon, the food was amazing, and I adored every piece of turquoise jewelry I laid eyes upon! I know that a lot of people insist on dressing fancy for flights, but I need to be all about comfort {even when not pregnant} so I try to find nice ways to achieve that while not looking too sloppy. A soft pair of leggings and stretchy shirt never fail me {though why oh why do black leggings have to fade so quickly?!} Coupled with a cute jacket or vest and comfy boots, I'm all set!


Speaking of boots, my Uggs finally wore out after far too many years and I needed another pair...but really didn't want to resort to Uggs again. I love them for comfort, but I've never been a huge fan as far as looks go. I knew there had to be a slightly more stylish option, not to mention some sort of boot that not every single person I know owns! When I came across Manitobah Mukluks I felt like I hit the jackpot. Have you heard of them before? Am I just out of the loop? Head to their website to check out all of their options and I know you'll be instantly smitten as well. Our plane was delayed eleventy billion hours and they kept me comfy late into the evening...


If boots are good enough to sleep in, you know they're a sensible purchase ;) More Santa Fe fun to come next week and in the meantime, happy weekend to everyone!

  1. Cute pics! Definitely agree about how black leggings fade so quickly - I now wear lululemon wunder unders in black all the time (the crop version and the full length) and they barely fade at all. Plus, I've worn them while hugely pregnant and when not pregnant and they always fit perfectly. Check them out - highly recommended!

  7. Lisa - I wear an 8 and ordered an 8 from their site online, and they are perfect! I was not aware of ordering a size different fom what I typically wear. Their customer service was super helpful so I'd call them if you have questions :) I love them and am so happy with the purchase!!

    1. Lovely boots. Love the mustard. What software program do you use for your collages, arrows, 'Santa fe' circle etc? I have elements but can't find that stuff. Thanks. Jan

  8. I use illustrator, but I believe those are all such basic functions that elements would surely have them!!

  13. I always enjoy your blog and your outfits! Are the Prada sunnies old or something that are in stores now? Thanks!

  14. Sadly they are from several years ago :( And they are technically men's...though I think with Prada their accessories like that can often go either way... or maybe I'm just crazy ;)

  15. You should try Zara's black leggings (the ones with a seam down the middle).
    They are a little thicker, great waist band, and mine have yet to fade. Seriously life changing.
