Perfect Day Picking Apples

Two weekends ago was the Apple Festival at Showalter Orchards in Timberville, Virginia so, I took the scenic drive a few miles north for a fun day in the apple groves picking the most delicious fruit. I've raved about Showalter so many times before because of the family atmosphere and incredibly beautiful views of the mountains.

I love spending few hours at the orchard but I also enjoy seizing the opportunity to take a few pictures as well. Truly, apple picking and having photoshoots in this little slice of heaven is my favorite Fall activity. Whenever I go to the apple orchard, I always start my outfit from the shoes up. I never wear flats or sandals there just because it's always so muddy and dusty. I knew I wanted to wear my Bean Boots there so the rest of the outfit is centered around my 8' brown and tan L.L. Bean Boots.

For my top, I'm wearing a classic J. Crew striped tee. I love this red and white one because I can wear it four seasons long. I styled it with my corduroy skirt from Vineyard Vines. It's embroidered with cute little navy whales on it and is the epitome of Fall at Vineyard Vines. I purchased this skirt a few years back so sadly, it isn't available anymore. For a little something extra I threw on my very favorite quilted puffer from J. Crew Factory --currently on sale btw!

I love this fresh take on an outfit with Bean Boots. To top off the look, I threw on some of my favorite jewels from Kiel James Patrick. My monogrammed pearl bracelet is one of my absolute favorite items that they sell. I also am wearing my KJP ring and Kate Spade bow ring for a little extra sparkle. If you love how I styled my Bean Boots, make sure to check out Krista Robertson at Covering the Bases. She styles her Bean Boots with skirts all the time and always looks incredible when she does.
