Town & Country NEW Fall Trends Naturalizer Boots & Rebecca Minkoff Mab Mini Satchel

NEW for fall 2013! Naturlizer's on trend leather Jersey Riding Boots - Mab Mini Satchel by Rebecca Minkoff. 

Autumn in NY In the great northeast, we definitely know how to celebrate change of seasons! Fall mornings around here are usually a bit cool but by the time the afternoon rolls around, things warm up a bit. My New Jersey estate allows the enjoyment of leafy walks and bicycle rides by bucolic horse farms and open fields but I can still hop on the train in be in Midtown in about 40 minutes. So my fall fashion choices, (especially my footwear), reflect that. So what's new for us who want to be comfortable in the country but still fashionable in town?

The Jersey Boot by Naturalizer
This is a new fall 2013 release from Naturalizer, who in my opinion makes some of the most comfortable career pumps around. The Jersey Riding Boot comes in Oxford Brown (shown), Black and a lighter Banana Bread Leather. The leather has a beautiful, rich finish that you would expect to see on a traditional riding boot. However the comfort is in the details. The Jersey comes in regular and wide shaft so those with larger calves will be quite happy in this boot.

Back cuff of the Jersey Boot has elastic inserts that give as you walk.

Comfort the First Time Out
I have other leather boots and most require some break in time. I actually wore these Jersey boots to NYC for a post Fashion Week event. Starting at 34th St. and 7th Ave. I walked 5 miles downtown to Soho and back even though they were brand new! Here are some details from the Naturalizer website:

Ride into style with the fashionable Jersey riding boots from Naturalizer.

• Leather upper in a riding boot style with a round toe
• Twin buckle straps at the shaft
• Inside zipper ensures an easy slip-on construction
• Elastic stretch panel at the collar
• Smooth lining, cushioning insole features N5 comfort elements
• Non-slip outsole, 1 inch heel

On Trend Bags-Rebecca Minkoff Mab Mini Satchel
Madam Editor of GaveThat.com (the ORIGINAL Bag SnobTM) loaned me her Rebecca Minkoff leather hand bag for this shoot. This fall and into spring 2014, the bags have shrunk. Large, over-sized "diaper bags" are pretty much played out. I like the supple leather of her Mab Mini Satchel as it is the perfect size for a day out in the country or in town.

Town and Country Living
So if you spend time working in town but want to relax in the country, get a few fall essentials like these that allow a seamless transition between the two. The Naturalizer Jersey Boots are beautiful to look at but also a delight to your feet. A quality leather bag like the Mab Mini Satchel will last for years and is worth the investment.
