I was a little crazy on our last day in Montreal and wore my heeled boots even though I knew we would be "hiking" up Mount Royal. But here's the thing, they're actually pretty comfortable and they have a grippy bottom which would help if there was slippery ground (which there was...plus some mud.) I was more bothered by the fact that I'm super out of shape and could barely breathe while walking up. The shoes weren't too bad, except when we decided to go off the paved path down a hill, that's dicey even in flat shoes, ha ha. But I survived and got one heck of a calf/thigh workout! Totally worth it.
I love the colors of this cropped sweater, they're so perfectly fall and go with pretty much everything in my closet so it's easy to layer. I actually found one on eBay if anyone is a size small!
Crop Top Sweater: Zara, Sweater Dress: Miss Selfridge (Lord & Taylor), Faux-Suede Leggings: H&M, Boots: Cordani (Roundabout), Wedding Band: Sofia Zakia Altair Ring (Catbird), Engagement Ring: Custom Sofia Zakia Wandering Star Ring, Opal
Coat: DKNY (old), Hat: bought at Kensington Palace, Scarf: NOMA (now LOUMA)
I would totally never have made it up there in any type of heel (I'm almost totally non-functional in virtually anything with a heel now - although I have one pair of boots with a very low heel that are the exception to that).

The two knits you layered together look wonderfully cosy and so stylish too! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed you did a hike in those boots, you should be proud of hat! I struggle on flat surfaces with heels sometimes, ha! I think you need a good sense of balance that I just don't have!
Hope that you are having a wonderful weekend :) It's a relaxing one here!

Those are some daring boots for a hike! I'm glad they ended up working out though, and do make the look so much cuter.
