Fall 2019 Must Haves | Shoes + Bags

While I am a summer girl, (I love the warmth, the sun, and summer outfits), I don't really have a favorite season, per say.

I enjoy all four seasons, but when their time is coming to an end, I am ready for the next. 

I love the change of seasons, while sometimes in Georgia, we struggle to find cooler weather, this time of the year is very "rich" in memories to me, making it feel very "cozy".

This time of the year reminds me of so many things! High school football Fridays, cheering our guys on to state championships several years in a row; The Deer Festival Pageant (if you are from my area, you know!); and then eight years ago, me and Justin began talking and dating, and a year later we were planning our wedding and our future together. 

So crazy, but so refreshing. 

I think one of my many favorite things with season changes, is bringing out clothes suitable for the season, or buying new clothes! 

Since becoming a wife, more so a mom, I have learned how to find key staples in my wardrobe to use for various outfits, in attempts to save money, while creating more options in what I can wear. 

I struggle with this, it is something I work on. 

Like many moms my age, I get a lot of ideas from pinterest, and of course some of my favorite IG personalities! 

Below, you will see a look at some of those staples for shoes and bags. (a favorite in my house!)

Shoes

This brand is Toetos, they are very reasonably priced, around $30. The colors offered include shades of black, grey, taupe and tan!

I love these slide on tennis shoes. I wore them in high school and have patiently waited for them to come back! I even still have my favorite pair from high school (Shh.. don't tell Justin!). I saw an influencer on Instagram wearing these, and I was like "FINALLY!". She pairs them with her skinny jeans and loose waffle knit shirts, or I have even seen her rock them with blue jean shorts, but my most favorite way to wear them is with a nice set of black or neutral leggings and an over sized sweater, or shirt. Super Cute, but most importantly, COMFY!

The first pair I have shared (grey) are Steve Madden brand, that are priced crazy good, and the cheetah pair are priced evenly, but they are a good $20 cheaper than Steve Madden's cheetah pair. 

Also, I really feel like little pops of cheetah print are going to make for great staples this Fall and maybe into winter, as well! 

If you know me, you know that I cannot turn down a good fringe anything. These ankle boots are everything, and would look so cute paired with skinny jeans, or even leggings and a tunic.

Bags

If you ask Justin to name one thing that I have too much of, he will always say bags. Bags will win every. time. 

But, he is wrong. 

​You can never have too many bags, don't let anyone tell you otherwise! 

This bag is a little stretch on cost for me, but I saw a lady with it at church the other day, and I have been looking at it since. The structure is amazing, this particular one is by Fossil, and they offer it in so many colors, Fig and Grey (pictured) are my two favorites for Fall.

This set above is a three piece set, by no brand I have ever heard of, but that doesn't matter- it comes with three bags!! What I love about this one is the variety you get, but I really like to carry larger bags. Bags that I can fit my planner, my laptop or iPad, if needed, and still have room for my wallet, phone, charger, etc. This is it. 

This is a super popular bag among moms my age, its room, its cute and its versatile. I have had it on my want list ever since it came out. I am slowly getting away from using a strict diaper bag, so this will be nice to carry when I need a bag for a little bit of everything!
