STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Forever Wearing Booties

Marilyn Monroe said it best, “Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.” This is the quote that is constantly in my head while buying shoes and lately my favorite shoe obsession is booties! I cannot get over how versatile and comfortable these shoes are. With that said, I can admit that when I first started seeing this trend; I was a bit hesitant because I thought that it would make my shorter frame look even shorter. However, with the perfect amount of heel, booties can actually elongate your legs.

I saw this Fashionista on her way to work one chilly winter day. What really caught my eye with her was the vibrant coat she had on. Since it is so bitter cold in central Illinois, you don’t see too many people wearing anything other than a black down-coat, so I knew with that style move she was clearly exactly what I was looking for. She paired this look with a white shirt with lace and ruffles, a gorgeous necklace, black skinny jeans and, of course, booties.

So what makes wearing booties so fashion-forward? Well, to start they are beyond comfortable if you wear the right brand. Another reason why booties are a must-buy is the fact that they are so versatile. You can dress these up or wear them casually. This Fashionista’s look would be completely changed if she had worn tall leather boots or flats.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: “If you are wearing heels, make sure that you wear a proper heel size for your confidence. Wearing six inch heels might seem like a good idea for pictures, but they are not the most sensible.”
