I love wearing boots this time of year and the over-the-knee style is my favorite! I love the way it lengthens my legs, dresses up otherwise basic outfits, and even makes for easy walking given the stacked heel. The Stuart Weitzman ‘Highland’ boots are an iconic boot but I will be the first to say that it’s definitely a big purchase. This year, I went in search of reasonable alternatives and am in love with this pair from Forever Fever (and you seriously cannot beat the under $50 price tag!). I love that the boots come up just past my knees and have the same streamlined look as the real ‘Highland’ boots. The main differences that I’ve found with these boots is that the heel is slightly thicker and there is a side zipper at the bottom to help in entry (although it’s barely noticeable when the boots are worn). Budget-friendly alternatives also seem to have the issue where the boots tend to slouch as I walk, but I’ve paired this pair with a pair of knee-high socks that heave seemed to fix the problem for now!
I’ve linked up a few more look-for-less options below (including these that I picked up last year that are also on sale right now!):
Meanwhile if you’re like me, you probably also love a good cape. They’re just so easy to throw on and always make an outfit look so put together! While I was initially wary that these voluminous capes would swallow me given that I’m only 5′ tall, I find that if you pair it with slim jeans and shoes with a bit of heel, it seems to balance out and look super chic! This cape is old from last year but I linked up several that I have my eye on this year:

I love the whole outfit. It’s my fav look of the season and you are right I do love one high boots which means capes as well. Lovely post
I absolutely adore your style! Those over-the-knee boots look fantastic on you, and the color is perfect for fall. It’s incredible how they can elevate a basic outfit and add that touch of chicness. Plus, your cape/poncho complements the look beautifully.
I agree that capes are such versatile and stylish pieces for the season, and you’ve shown how well they can work, even for those who are petite. Your fashion sense is truly inspiring!
Thank you for hosting the linkup and for sharing your fabulous outfit inspiration with us. Looking forward to more of your posts!
