Trend?? No, the Skinny Pant is here to stay

Years ago when the skinny pant covered the runways and IT clothing stores, people were saying it was just a trend, but the Skinny Pant is here to stay. Each season they get more fabulous than the last....
The first pair can be bought at www.lagarconne.com for $485 US. They are Preen Line. Love, Love, Love all the detailed gatherings and seams but with all that gathering around the hips, yours better be small!



Even better than the Skinny pany is the Union of the legging and the Skinny.... Especially when there is leather involved. Holt Renfrew sold out 3 deliveries of the leather and cotton Alexander Wang pant/legging, which was over $1,000. Here are 2 versions of it available at www.lagarconne.com. Rag & Bone, $525. Something Else, $156

Riding lines are another great detail to add to this pant and believe it or not.... GAP has a cheap amazing jean version, if they are not already sold out. And look at the knees on the ones below, I want them!

Sky High buckled boots









































Its fall so of course boots are everywhere, but what Im loving are all the high strappy, buckled boots I am seeing.  

The first pair are my fave's... which is why I own them! Looks like I am not the only one as they are seen here on Carrie Underwood. They are the Jenna boot from Bebe coming in black and beige and cost around $300. Triple buckled to add a metalic flare and can be tightened at the top or bottom. The 1.25" platform and the 5.5" all together heel make them a little tough for the cobblestone yaletown streets but the look is worth it. 

Next we have a high and low priced version. The Giuseppe Zanotti have the 3 buckled details and a 1/2" hidden platform. They can be found at www.shopbop.com for $1,250. If you don't have a spare grand to spend on boots than the Harrington from Nine west is available in Cognac and black(shown) leather and is only $189
