New Fall Arrivals at Anthro & another Back to School OOTD

I was excited to see some new arrivals on Anthro's website this morning! These adorable boots went right to the top of my wishlist:



These are called the Pebbled & Primped Boots and they remind me of the brown Winding Ruffle boots that I missed out on (still pining after those and continue to search on Ebay for them at a reasonable price). I actually need a new pair of black boots. Well, as much as a person who lives in Florida can need a pair of boots. ;-)

I also like the Berry-Stitched Boots.
Would the color be versatile enough though? I hope some blogger reviews these soon!



I guess I'm on a shoe kick today, because these Peppermint Swirl Spectators also caught my eye. Again, not sure I'd get a lot of wear out of shoes this color. They are darling though!



The bird skirt finally has a name! It's the In The Trees Skirt and I just love the tweed and the colors of the bird & branches. I've been really into pencil skirts lately so this is one I'll definitely have to check out. It will need to go on sale before I could ever consider actually purchasing it though!



This next item isn't brand new but I had to include it because it's so perfect for fall. I don't wear a ton of blazers but this one seems like it would be comfortable since it is stretchy. I'll have to try it on the next time I'm at the store. It could be a great addition to my "professor wardrobe" for school. :-)
To A Tee Blazer:



Here's what I wore to teach yesterday at the second local college where I'm working this fall. I wasn't completely sure about it so I asked my husband what he thought and he said it was "bright and pretty." Part of his job involves designing maps so he has a great eye for color. He was kind of half asleep when I asked him though so I wasn't sure if he actually liked it or if he was just trying to get me to go away. ;-) So, was it cute or a bit much for the classroom? I felt cute and class went well so I guess that's all that matters. :-)

Happy Wednesday! I'm already making plans for the weekend. My mother-in-law is coming to visit and I have some serious house cleaning to do before she gets here!
