Cherry Creek

I just got back from a highly successful shopping excursion at Denver's Cherry Creek Mall. Known for its high-end retailers such as Tiffany's and Louis Vuitton, Cherry Creek also has a fantastic Nordstroms, where I scored some brown leather boots. 

Report "Waldron" boot-  Originally $150 to $79 Nordstrom

I have been lusting over the idea of dark brown, leather, knee high boots for months. I wanted the height to say "sassy" not "stripper", and the color to be versatile enough to be paired with anything from jeans to a sweater dress. These are perfect; they're even durable enough to make the block-length walk from my house to the bus stop in the snow. And kudos to the Customer Service (always highly praised by fashionistas and magazines alike) for holding the abnormally wide box at the counter while I shopped the rest of the mall. I mean the phrase "Shop til you drop" should not be taken that literally, especially with a sprained wrist.

Subsequent to the review of H&M I wrote previously, I wore a navy and taupe striped H&M dress, Coconuts by Matisse suede taupe boots and a black Nordsrom BP leather jacket, bag by Michael Kors:

Dress- H&M $14.95, Boots- Amazon $100,  Jacket- Nordstrom $50,  Necklace- Aldo $15

Michael Kors Uptown Astor Large Shoulder Tote in brown (mine's black) $448
