I've had my eye on this shirt for awhile; the rust color is nothing like anything I have in my closet, so I thought it'd be a fun way to test out a new color. It came back on Jane.com a week or so ago, so I scooped it up, and I got it in the mail last week! I quickly tried it on with the pants I already had on (see last week's post) and I really like it! The light at the time I took these pictures doesn't capture the color 100% accurately, but you get the idea.
Also, I think I finally figured out a secret to these booties. I've been struggling with what socks to wear with them, because they cut down so low in the front (which I love). I've tried them without socks, (and here too), and with socks that matched my outfit. I don't want to go sock-less if it's cold out, and the socks that matched my outfit looked a little childish. Here, I kept on my dark grey socks and pushed down my pant legs all the way past my ankle, before putting the boots on. Only up close can you see just a touch of the grey socks, and the tucked in pants create the illusion of longer legs. So I think the key is to tuck in my pants, and pair with socks that match either the booties or my pants!
