I know I have mentioned these previously in my post about studs, but I really do adore these boots, they are the epitome of the perfect combat boot in my eyes. Vintage leather combat boots with brass or silver stud detail throughout. Stud design and laces may vary as they are vintage and done by hand.

Aside from just runway plaid has been seen everywhere from topshop to urban outfitters. Now I have to tell you, when I first saw the Fall 2008 Lookbook for Topshop my jaw dropped. It was literally filled with outfits I could only imagine were in my wardrobe. I really wish I owned every article of clothing envolved. Every single look was flawless, but for now I will just be showing the outfits involving some sort of plaid.
