Reviews – Page 2 – Marissa Wears an Outfit

This post is in collaboration with Mott & Bow, but all thoughts and views are my own.

As I get older & really start to find out what my sense of style really is, I often just find myself reaching for what’s comfortable–some great basics that include a good pair of jeans & a simple & comfortable top.

Mott & Bow has so many great options that fit seamlessly into my wardrobe, starting with these mom jeans (I did cut mine because I’m a shortie!) and this cashmere raglan crew sweater. They’re both SO comfy & mix & match with the other items in my closet so well. This is my first cashmere sweater & it is SO soft and I am looking forward to wearing it in almost every season!

My husband is also a jeans and simple top guy– as he was trying on his slim fit jeans, he was amazed at how remarkably comfortable they were and that they had the perfect amount of stretch. He’s worn them multiple times now & says they are his best fitting jeans and his favorite to wear. He also loves the feel of the cashmere crew bergen sweater. It’s a great piece for fall, winter & spring and so incredibly lightweight & soft to the touch. The black is classic & will go with everything!

How to Style Sock Booties (Sustainable brand Vivaia Shoes Review)

February 14, 2022 No Comments

Vivaia is a brand that reached out to me about trying their sustainably made shoes. After researching them & finding out more about their company, I decided to give them a try! All views are my own and the shoes were gifted to me by Vivaia.

If you prefer video content, check out my fun reel HERE!

The number one great thing I was excited to learn about Vivaia is that their shoes are made with recycled plastic water bottles & ethically sourced wool (even the packaging that they send the shoes in is 100% recycled materials!). I was SO impressed with that fact, & even more so when I received the shoes & they were incredibly comfortable! A good portion of their shoes are even made to be machine washable which is also so convenient (unfortunately this pair is not because of the heel).

I chose the Zoe wool round-toe boots in my regular size (you just use their size chart to convert your US size to your EU size) and the color tan russet. It’s a beautiful brownish grey & it’s the perfect color that goes with just about anything (this pair is on sale right now for $83 and my code ma18 can get you an extra 18% off!).

Viviaia has a ton of shoe options on their site– boots, mules, loafers, flats, heels, sneakers, etc, and they also carry men’s shoes. Vivaia is considered a competitor of Rothys’ shoes, which I can’t speak to or review because I don’t own a pair, but they both are made for comfort & out of recycled materials. If you are interested in trying a pair of sustainably made shoes, Vivaia’s shoes start around $99, which is more affordable than Rothys are. They also seem to have more style options than Rothys.

All in all, I would definitely recommend Vivaia shoes to anyone looking for style, comfort, & sustainability. I’m looking forward to contining to wear and style my Zoe sock boots and to continue to support this brand!

I have styled these extremely versatile boots 3 different ways below. Most of my outfits are older pieces, but I will link similar options to what I’m wearing if you want to try to recreate look. I use affiliate links which means I earn a small commission if you purchase anything using my link, and it will be no additional cost to you. Thanks for your support! 🙂

Look number 1: A mockneck, cardigan & straight leg jeans.
This look is casual & comfy. I LOVE that these sock boots tuck perfectly into straight leg jeans. Makes them look so chic.

Look number 2: A mini boho dress.
The color of these boots pairs perfectly with black & I love that the taller shaft adds interest to an otherwise simple dress look.

Look number 3: A flowy top & skinny jeans.
The shaft of these boots is tight enough that they pair so well with skinny jeans too! Love that! Dress it up with a flowy blouse & you’ve got yourself a cute night out look.
