While shoe shopping is obviously fun, I never take my boot-buying decisions lightly. Between the right height, a comfy fit and a perfect style, there are loads of things to consider when investing in a bang-on boot. iVillage.ca asked me to pick the 15 boots I think are worth buying this fall and so I went on a virtual spree. Read on for the ones that are making me swoon right now...

Don't know about you but all these early mornings are wreaking serious havoc on my hair. My solution? A cute felt cap, ideal for instantly banishing bedhead when you don't have time to primp. You'll get around to that perfect blow-out one of these days but in the meantime, I say throw a hat on it. I'm particularly loving these felt caps from Old Navy. Only $12 each. A must, right?

It's no secret that a lot of us are jealous of the school-age set right now. I mean, their days are planned out, their lunches are made for them, and their laundry is neatly folded for them when they get home. Unfair. But perhaps most jealousy-inducing of all is the fact that they all get to go back to their respective schools sporting brand new wardrobes. At what other age does someone grab you by the shoulders each fall and say, "I'm sorry, honey, but we need to go shopping for you today. No, don't shake your head - we are going to buy you a brand new wardrobe for fall. And you're going to like it." Like I said, unfair.
You know what I think? It's time to reclaim our shopping rights. And since the kids are finally back in class, it's time for us to finally hit the stores for ourselves. Time for us to update our bags, to pick out some beautiful new boots, and to take home some super cute accessories, just because we can.
I've rounded up 50 super tempting fall buys, perfect for both in the classroom and out to get you all up-to-date for the new season. Oh, and by the way, you're going to like it.

If you read this blog regularly, you'll know that I'm more than a little sneaker obsessed. Given that I've worked out 2.5 times this calendar year, this might seem like an impractical choice. But here I go again, sucked in by perhaps the most tempting sneaker collab to date - and I would indeed date these shoes if I could.
The Fall '14 Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Missoni collection features Missoni’s designs on Converse’s iconic All Star silhouettes, allowing us to rock the brand's signature zig zag designs on our wannabe Italian piedi. You might recall that Missoni collaborated with Target awhile back and though I hightailed it to the closest border to pick up Missoni onesies for my newborn, I left completely empty-handed for myself. I will not make this mistake twice.
The collection will be available in Canada this coming Monday Sept 15th at Town Shoes, Little Burgundy, Gravity Pope, Browns Shoes, Hudson Bay and Livestock.
So, are you feeling this collection, too? I'd normally do the b&w but for some reason, I am just loving those purple hi-tops. Like I need purple hi-tops...
happy fri!

Fall is here and while we all lament the fact that summer is done, I'm making my wardrobe the excuse to get excited for the new season. This outfit actually sold me on the idea of cold weather. Cable knit crewneck, tan trench, black skinnies, leopard sneakers and a perfect red crossbody - a perenially fail-proof fall combo.
Trench: Banana Republic | Textured Cable Fleece Sweater: RW&CO. | Skinnies: Theory | Leopard Sneakers: ALDO (similar) | Red Crossbody: Danier (similar)
Okay, I'm ready for fall. Who's with me?
