One thing I’m often asked by friends is what kinds of pieces I think are worth splurging on. While I’ve definitely learned to spend way less on clothing and shoes than I used to, I definitely believe that it’s smart to invest in higher quality basics that will last rather than replacing each season. A black leather, flat, over-the-knee pair of boots is about as classic as it gets for fall, and these ones from DUO are pretty amazing: not only is the leather quality beautiful, but they also come in different calf widths – ensuring a perfect fit that will be a wardrobe workhorse for years to come.

i love duo. I have several of their boots. I was looking at those that you’re wearing the other day. Some reviewers had complained they were too short to be OTK. They look great on you. For reference, do you mind sharing your height? I’m 5’1 and suspect you are also petite. Thanks!
AMAZING scarf! Beautiful colors!
The boots look great on you! I’m always self-conscious about wearing tall OTK boots, since my legs are slightly bow-legged.
Ooh , Jen, I love this! The boots are so gorgeous on you and I’m loving the Joe scarf! Will have to check my store!
Love your whole outfit, especially your Joe Fresh scarf!
Love this look, I can’t wait for the cooler days here in Texas to rock fall clothes.

I couldn’t agree more! I’d go crazy if I HAD to purchase new shoes every season. I want the shoes I get to be comfortable and to last!
P.S. You look lovely! That scarf is too cute.
I absolutely love sweater dresses in the fall. This one is so gorgeous! I’ll have to keep my eyes out for a similar style.
