Autumn is my favorite time of year to stock up on L.L. Bean. I can't get enough of their Bean Boots and Boat and Tote Bags. They have such classic styling, quality construction, and a fun, preppy style. They're seriously items that never go out of style, and that I find myself reaching for over and over.

I love my Bean Boots because they're so durable and waterproof. I use them for everyday errands like walking the dogs or walking through our often-leaky basement as well as to stay warm and dry in wet weather and blend in with the fall foliage.

The slip-on mocs are even good for summertime errands like yard work, and since they're made of rubber, they clean up so easily!

A word about sizing: these boots are meant to be worn with serious socks, so size down significantly! Half sizes are advised to order one and a half down! I wear an 8.5 in most shoes; I own a 7 in both of these pairs!
