Elements of Susie’s Style
1. Boots
Susie’s thigh-high riding boots are on trend and perfect for the season. The high-rise style helps elongate her legs and create a casual yet fashionable look. Not only are they “in”, they are comfortable and perfect for an all day shopping spree.
2. A Simple Yet Bold Pattern
The pattern of Susie’s shirt really completed her look. The print is simple with an animal print flare and acts as the bold statement piece in her outfit.
3. Purse
This purse has many compartments, yet is still small and worn close to the body – the perfect mix of style and function. A small purse like this is great for a shopping day, especially in a crowded place. Not only is it safer and easier to keep an eye on, it takes up less room and provides more arm space for tons of shopping bags!

I love her look! Especially her tops pattern! And I do like ridding boots but I don’t usually wear skinny jeans so I haven’t gotten any (yet) ;) Great post!
Raven
Eh it’s okay but I’ve seen so many versions of this outfit everyday that I can’t say I love since I don’t find it very special.
Annie
Where did she get that bag?? so cute!
Sandra
I like those boots, but I don’t think those boots elongate her legs at all, it may even be quite the opposite. In the second picture they look nice, but in the first pic the boots are wearing her rather than the other way around.
Chloe
Loving her boots!
Katherine
I love that bag! I have been looking for one just like it. Does anyone know where she got it?!?

I love her top, and she has the most beautiful face! I don’t think her boots elongate her legs as you said but it doesn’t matter that they don’t. I’d love to know where she got her top.

The bag looks like the Converse One Star ones at Target, because I have one of them. Maybe Charlotte Russe has something like that too?
Phoebe
Ditto about the bag! I’ve been looking for one like it, too! Have been searching online, but so far, no such luck :(
