Back to school!

I LOVE back to school shopping. For anyone who knows me, I am not a huge shopper (like some others I know, ehem Steph). But one think I have always enjoyed is BACK TO SCHOOL SHOPPING!  I love it!

So...I finally narrowed down my new boot choices, they are really really cute!

My fave is this one, in tan:

over the knee boots

I can see them going with a lot of things, sweater dresses, skinny jeans, leggings and long sweaters...yah!! Exciting. I have another few pairs in mind but that one is firt choice. I alse need a pair of black old faithfuls but I can get those puppies another time, I dont need them yet.

I also need some other things like a bag for my books, since this semester carrying them in my hand won't cut it. I would probably topple over head first with my luck. Also, its not 1995 and I am not gonna Jansport my crap, so I need a new bag from somewhere to tote around my junk. Any thoughts? Are messenger bags still in?

Help!
