A Fall Welcome from Naughty Monkey

It’s Fall, everybody.

Not that you would know it by the weather outside….expected highs in the low 90′s and all that.  But, today is the Autumnal Equinox, and days will be grow shorter and shorter on through December. Goodbye, long and lazy summer days. The endless street-sightings of flip-flops and gladiator sandals are numbered (thank goodness – but that’s just me).

Now we can start planning and looking ahead to wood-fires, hot spiced cider, cinnamon-apples and fall holiday visits with the family; I know I always look forward to this time of year.

And, just in time for fall, I ran across these lovely ankle booties by Naughty Monkey:

Naughty Monkey ‘Cake Walk’ $109.20 at Zappos / $99.95 at Endless

Layered with the warm brown and russet colors of fall, these boots wistfully remind me of seemingly huge piles of just-raked leaves from my childhood.  Did you ever succumb to the temptation to throw all that hard work aside and just jump right in?

This boot is a lot like that. It makes me want to throw caution to the winds and go for it. This boot says ‘hold on and enjoy the experience’; I like that.

Happy Fall, everybody!
