A Quest: The Perfect Chocolate Boot

This season's frustration has one word: chocolate. Between a few different clients looking for a good chocolate pant, another looking for a blazer, and most looking for boots, we at Real Life Style have spent a lot of time on the quest for chocolate this season. The problem? Chocolate seems to have fallen out of favor with many designers for some reason. Although I'm still looking for those pants and a blazer, I have had much better luck with the boot hunt. Whether you are looking for a heel, a flat riding boot or a short bootie to wear with jeans, we've done all the work for you! Enjoy!

Would You Buy Clothes From A Store Called Nasty Gal?

Should a grown woman be buying clothes from a site called Nasty Gal? When the fashion editor of a major magazine admitted to me that it is her favorite shopping destination, I knew it was time to pay attention.

In 2012, everyone was talking about the sexy fashion website, Nasty Gal. It's no wonder. The site was named the #1 fastest growing retail company on the 2012 Inc. 5000 list, with over $100 million in yearly sales after just six years in business!

So what is the appeal of the Nasty Gal site for grown women? This online retailer features clothes, shoes, and accessories from affordable brands as well as daring designers such as Jeffrey Campbell, not to mention lust-worthy vintage finds. While it is quite easy to find a fresh, spring dress, a pair of high heels, or a motorcycle jacket to fall in love with, beware of clothing with provocative cut-outs and extremely short lengths. The clothes also come in very small sizes for smaller girls and most of the merchandise is under $150. Last year they released their own clothing line produced locally in Los Angeles. And in case you were wondering, the name was inspired by the song "Nasty Gal" by Betty Davis.


Let the fashion show begin!



Nasty Gal is a great place to look for spring dresses of all styles and colors.






Pumps, booties, and platforms galore! Heels for every occasion can be found on the website.

Studded Platform Bootie, $78





Motorcycle jackets and trench coats are great for the transitioning weather. Pair with a flowy dress in bright colors for a perfect spring outfit!






While most of Nasty Gal consists of affordable, modern fashions, don't forget to check the vintage section for one-of-a-kind designer finds.




Looking for sparkle and sequins? This website has it all, including this mint green sweater with sequined elbow patches.

Fall Boots Under $500

What would fall be without boots? Boots can be a practical basic or the missing link to making a statement with your outfit. Don't get it wrong! Although in style every year, the must-have looks change each season. Below is my list of must-haves for Fall 2012. As a bonus, all of them are under $500!

The equestrian look is a major trend this season, so a riding boot is a definite must-have. Try them over skinny jeans or cords, or under a maxi skirt. Frye boots are a classic, so don't worry about these ever going out of style.



With a simple two-tone look and rounded edges, this pair is effortlessly elegant. Try it with a plaid blazer for a Ladies & Gents look.





This riding boot has a little heel, which will make your legs look like you've been riding horses your whole life! The heel also keeps the look from overwhelming a smaller frame.



I know I have trouble getting tight, tall boots over my legs sometimes. Try a pair like these that has a stretch panel down the sides, giving you extra room in the calves. These look awesome in black too!



Out of the country, and into the city! The Moto (i.e. Motorcycle) boot is another must-have this season. Can't you just see this pair wandering the streets of Paris?



Leather, buckles, and studs... oh my! Who said Moto boots had to be black? I'd love these with an oversized, soft pink cashmere sweater...



You can even get the Moto look in rain boots! How cute are these?



One trend that never goes away is the cowboy boot. 



Cowboy boots can have higher heels, too! Take these for a night out as a comfortable alternative to spiked heel boots.



The final boot style is the bootie. Because of their low profile, these boots can go with maxi skirts, short skirts and tights, tucked-into jeans... you name it, they work!



The wedge bootie is one of the most important shoe shapes this season. Wear it with cropped pants and a blouse.



This heeled platform bootie shows femininity and power. Hands down, these are one of the sexiest, most affordable pairs out there!



Lastly, for those of you who have trouble getting boots to fit your calves, J.Crew, Cole Haan, and Zappos  have extended calf size boots.
