Victoria's Secret Sugar Scrub

My newest favorite purchase is completely a result of cabin fever and the insanely long winter we've had. Victoria's Secret has walls of intoxicating fragrances and lotions and their Lemon Sugar & Coconut Body Scrub is a perfect mix of sweet lemon and perfectly subtle coconut.  And how freakin' pretty is that packaging?!?  I bought the scrub, the lotion and will probably go back for the body spray - if that's any indication of how much I like it. :)

grey boot search

Sometimes there's something that just needs to be in your closet. Right now, for me, that item is knee-high, grey riding boots.  The grey would go well with so many outfits I've dreamt up. Especially my navy Paige Denim skinnies (similar here but I found mine at Nordstrom Rack on super sale :). It would be a great way to tie so many things together when black or brown boots just don't get the job done. And to be perfectly honest, having that low heel means much more wear when it comes to the average Wisconsin weather. 

Unfortunately, I'm having a really hard time finding them (within budget and in my size). There's a lot of greys that have a lot of yellow tones and aren't a true grey. Or they have gold hardware when I'm leaning on silver, etc..etc...  Either way, the search continues! Until then, here's a watercolor and pencil sketch of mine and a few other inspirations.

Here are two that are SO close but not in my size. :(

And here are two Polyvore ensembles that I would love to recreate if I got my hands on some knee high grey boots. They may seem a bit plain and monochromatic to some but I definitely have a thing for matching and keeping things simple, so for me, they are perfect. :)
