Knee highs aren't just for dresses!

As the first load from Merce & Me Necessities nears, I thought it would be fun to play around with a fall style other than dresses with our clara socks. So we grabbed a pair of boots, some distressed jeans, and a fun shirt with amazing fall jewel tones.

She did have a sweater on at one point, but it's august in Oklahoma so it didn't last long. I love this look because it's so easy for school especially on those days when it's cool in the morning and warm in the afternoon. They just ditch the cardi or sweater like Merce did, and they are still comfy...and stylish. ;) 

This tank is definitely worth mentioning. It's from the girls section at Old Navy (not the baby/toddler section) and is a size small. it's a little big on her, but that's ok. It didn't hang down too far in the front so there's no foul.  It's beautiful colors caught my eye from across the way, and it was on the clearance rack. That's right, $4.97. I LOVE a good clearance rack.

Her jeans are so stretchy and comfy! They are from our favorite little local boutique, BHip Kids, and are truly amazing. they have just the right amount of distressing without having holes in them, and along with all the stretch they also have an adjustable waist! Merce is wearing a size 6. They have no growing room, so we will be going back for a 6x or 7 soon for sure.

The socks are our Mustard Clara socks. I love them loose like this with boots and rolled skinnies. They just add interest and a pop of color where it's needed.  These mustard Clara socks will be loading along with 7 other colors on August 25, 2017 at 1000 AM. they are knee high and have a fun scalloped edge to them.  Merce wears a size 1 shoe, and a medium in this sock. We will soon have size large coming that will fit size 2+. They are so soft and stretchy, they even stretched to fit my size 9.5-10 foot! They were a little tight on my calf, but not uncomfortable. So this means the older girls can have knee highs too! I do not have a load date on those yet, but hopefully it'll happen in September. 

Merce is wearing Mikoleon boots. I've blogged about those before (The Boots to End All Boots). They are handmade artisan boots and so soft. This is the one pair of boots that looks even better the more scuffed they are. I don't mind sending Merce to school in them, I hope she drags her toes on the swing to distress the boots a little more! they are just gorgeous.

And last, her sunnies. They are from Joyfolie. This summer Joyfolie did a $30 Thursday and loaded a lot of amazing shoes, dresses and accessories at very low prices.  These sunnies were part of a mystery purchase. I purchased a $5 mystery accessory and received these! She loves them, and only $5 so I'm not going to complain at all.

We had so much fun creating and shooting this outfit. Merce had input, which she loves. She was definitely born to be a leader. And she got to climb the fence. It was a win-win for her! 💖
