Avenue Wide Calf Boots

Hello Friends!

Holiday season is always crazy for me but for some reason this year it went by too quick that I didn't even get time to enjoy the season. So sorry for the lack of season inspired posts, my life has been too crazy this year, I'm ready for 2017! Today's post I'm working with the OC plus Bloggers again and were talking about my favorite kind of shoes, boots! I love boots but finding wide calf boots that fit can be hard, so today we are all sharing about different pairs of wide calf boots from Avenue!

Since we took pictures we decided to so a group collaboration for fall because we were all dressed up in fall attire!

How I styled a Filipino Ifugao Tapis

Hey Friends!!!

October is coming to an end which means my Filipino American History Month series is ending as well. So I wanted to end the month with an outfit post, last year I styled a traditional barong.
