STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Get Your Booties In The Game

Okay beach babes, it’s time to pack your sandals away for the year. The season we’ve been awaiting has finally arrived! There are leaves on the ground, pumpkin spice lattes in the hands of every girl on campus and the weather is getting chillier. This could only mean one thing—yes, it’s fall, or, autumn for those of you that like to sound fancy. With a new season comes new footwear because let’s face it, no matter how great your pedicure looks, it won’t matter when your toes are turning blue on a cold morning. Booties are calling your name, ladies! Booties, which are the slightly shorter sibling of regular boots, are absolutely perfect for fall. They look good with just about anything from skirts to dresses to jeans. They come in all sorts of styles from grungy to fringes, flats or heels and, well, you get the point. Booties are a must-have for every Fashionista.

Today’s Fashionista looked very classy in her red printed shift dress. The dress had the perfect color scheme for the start of fall and the three-quarter length sleeves were very weather appropriate. She kept her accessories simple with a watch on her wrist and a great pair of black booties on her feet. The entire ensemble was very put together. Watches make you look more professional, and black heels, whether they are pumps or booties, always make you look dressed up. The length of her dress and the height of her booties worked together very well to draw attention to her legs. As this Fashionista proved, booties can be worn all throughout fall, with dresses in warmer weather and with pants later on in the season.

Still not sure you’re ready to jump on the booties bandwagon? Booties are flattering on any figure—it all comes down to how you style them and the proportions between the booties and the length of the clothing you pair with them. These cute little boots are so easy to slip on but make a big statement. Buy a pair in a neutral color so they’ll go with everything—you can’t go wrong!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Dresses are a girl’s best friend. They are perfect no matter the occasion or temperature. Wear a casual sundress with a denim jacket for a lunch date with the girls, or wear a LBD with an awesome pair of tights and heels for a night out.”
