PFM Obsession: Just One More Pair

photo via Refinery29, text via MavenFresh

The season is a-changing and with it brings a closer look at your wardrobe status. Ladies, I'm talking boots. Even more specifically...black ankle booties with a low heel or a wedge and maybe some buckles. Not exactly easy to find, but I was inspired by this fabulous Fashion Week outfit to peruse a bit. Yep, I realized for sure that there is a void in my closet longing to be filled with a pair of these babies below. You know...something to combine with bare legs and drop waist dresses now, and with tights or printed pants later. Just one more pair. 

Have you swapped out your summer clothes for your fall ones in your closet yet? It might officially be that time to get excited about dressing in layers of chunky knits, skinny jeans, and leather jackets. I'm coming to terms with the fact that I may truly be a warm-weather-loving girl whose heart lies with fall and winter fashion. Shhh. xoxo Becca

PFM Confessional: Most Memorable Fashion Moment

my "new" pair of docs
my most memorable fashion moment is when i got my first pair of Doc Martens.  i had a pair of the low steel-toes and i loved them.  getting my Docs was a defining moment for me.  they symbolized so much more than just a new pair of shoes; for me, they symbolized "cool" at one of the best times in my life. 

it was the early '90's and i was in high school in the lower east village.  being a queens girl, it was my first introduction to life in the city.  i was instantly drawn to the village-inspired fashion and the quickest way to be "down" was to get a pair of Docs.  it was the first time i practiced the tried and true method of adding one statement piece to change my whole fashion perspective. oh and it did!  just like that, i looked and felt like i belonged.  ...but i can't think about Docs without thinking about all the time that i spent in the the Village roaming around from 8th street down to W. 4th, walking all over and in between.  i spent hours in the store Unique that used to be on Broadway.  i had countless numbers of Haagen Daz cookies and cream ice cream shakes from 8th street (yes, back when i ate dairy lol).  my girls and i enjoyed people watching (especially watching boys :).  i was young, wild and free.  yes, those were the good ol' days.  looking back, i have to credit this fashion moment as my most memorable and most influential! xo sesheta
