    BOOTIES

     


    ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR | FIVE | SIX | SEVEN | EIGHT


    I’m not usually ready for fall until the end of August. Something about August ending somehow signifies the end of Summer. Yet, every year, without fail, September always brings the heat! I’m ready for a fall wardrobe, and yet here I am in shorts and a tank! Couldn’t be any further from the fall layers I’m craving. It’ll come soon enough, I’m sure.

    I’m writing this post today for two reasons. First, I am short – like 5’3″ on a good day, which means my legs are short! Second, booties are my shoe of choice and, for short legged folk like me, it can be tough finding the right bootie that don’t make my calves look huge or my legs look shorter.

    I think the boot gods have finally responded to my short leg woes, because this year there are some VERY good options. My go-to’s are the ones with the cut-outs, a little trick that helps elongate my short legs!

    Are you a bootie lover? Number one and six are in my closet as we speak.

    1. So my father in law brings us cheap (maybe $5) riding/wear-around-the-ranch boots back from his trips to Mexico and I’ve never thought much of them in the aesthetics dept… they were just cheap boots I didn’t have to worry about getting manure on…
      And yet they’re pretty much identical to those $130 Dolce Vita boots (#2). I guess I could clean mine off and wear them around town now!

        1. And the #7 is the one I want, but the link takes you to another boot! Could you update that one, as well. They are gorg!

            1. You are so sweet to fix those. Sorry . . . I know you’re a busy working mom, but I do appreciate all you do for us gals in cyberland. Much love to you!

    2. I think some of the other links are wrong as well. I love #7, but it takes me to #5. Thank you for posting this great round-up.
