Booties all year 'round: fashion do or don't?

One thing's for certain: when the weather gets hot, the layers come off, and it always starts with shoes!

But, you know that sad moment when you pick your favorite pair of winter booties up off the floor, place them on the shelf, and say goodbye until next fall? What if you didn't have to? Or maybe you don't put them away, but you never really feel comfortable wearing them, too afraid of feeling out-of-season.

Well, I'm here to tell you that there's not reason to be afraid; you can start wearing your booties all year long! Whether you're boho chic, jeans and t-shirt, or more of a "pretty in pink" kind of girl, there's a way for any style to rock this trend. Check out the photos below to see how to pair them with your favorite summer looks!


 
Pick out your best summer frock, throw on your booties, and you can even pair it with some cute bunched up ankle socks, weather permitting.

While booties in the summer can sometimes lend to a more bohemian feel in your style, it doesn't have to! The look above chose to wear fun, printed booties, giving her style a funky edge.

But, if you're feeling laid back and you desire the jean shorts and t-shirt feel, dress it up with booties and leave the keds at home.

For a more polished look, you can pair a cute, belted dress with heeled booties and wear this to brunch or out shopping with friends!
As always, make your style your own! Find a way to make this work for you that feels comfortable and effortless. If you're feeling like booties in the summer is still too eccentric, try an open-toed bootie, or rock a confident smile and show the haters who's boss! If you try it and don't like it, who says you have to wear it again?

I hope you found this helpful, and if you decide to take the plunge and wear them out, take a pic and share with me! I'd love to see the way you chose to personalize this trend!

Booties all year 'round? I say its a "do"!

See you tomorrow!
