One of our favorite things to do is explore vintage shops and thrift stores for unique finds. Over the weekend we made a visit to our local Salvation Army store to see what fashion pieces we could find only to uncover gorgeous vintage navy boots in mint condition. And with 50 percent off the $8 dollar price tag, we could not ask for a better bargain. We love our new boots so much we could not resist pairing them with three outfit we created using the ShopSense tool from ShopStyle. Take a look at the outfit ideas we have pieced together for different occasions.

While we love taking out our cocktail dresses and dressy pants for a spin, there is nothing like cute casual wear
for those days we want to run a few errands or grab a quick lunch with our girlfriends. So with this in mind, we have found fun clothing and accessories that along with our vintage boots work exceptionally well with keeping us looking comfortable but chic.
About the Look:
In order to keep things casual, we chose a baby pink cardigan, black studded leggings and a crisp, white V-neck T-shirt to make the outfit look more put together without losing that laid back feel we love. And with the vintage boots as the backbone, we made sure to pick jewelry that played off with the silver studs on the boots. Next we paired the outfit with a light tan wristlet and a fun Essie nail polish in the color Angora Cardi.

Now this fabulous outfit was designed for those nights when we want to take down our ponytails, don a cute dress and hit the nightlife or a gallery opening with a group of our girlfriends. We made sure to keep the color palette light and airy for the summer heat but add a few touches of elegance to soften the look for any night time event.
About the Look:
We wanted the focal points to be the boots and the light green shift dress. Although the accessories like the beaded clutch and the gray faux leather jacket are neutral, the hardware and intricate detail helps soften the look and make it look more sophisticated. We added patterned tights, a gorgeous bib necklace and diamond earrings to add a few unique touches to dress up the outfit. To add a bit of the summer feel we chose a bright neon nail polish from Wet n Wild for the nails.

For many of us, summer is ending soon as we start getting ready to go back to College and work. This means finding that killer first day outfit we need to boost our confidence and impress the bosses. After some careful searching we found some great style pieces that we felt worked incredibly well with our navy boots.
About the Look:
To Keep the look clean and sleek, we paired a gorgeous bright red romper with a tailored boyfriend blazer along with a brown plaited belt to help synch the waist. It took us a while to find the perfect messenger bag but we finally found it. This lovely light tan messenger bag is perfect for carrying our laptops, notepads and essentials we need in the classroom or office. To complete the look we chose a silver chocker, a beautiful leaf bangle watch and simple studs to complement the outfit. Lastly, we chose two nail art decals: a classic flower pattern and cheetah print. This is by far our favorite of the three outfits.
