...the trend is more like 4 and a half years in now, but I've finally gotten around to wearing booties with bare legs. My booties got a lot of wear with tights this winter, so swapping the tights for sheer hose seems like the natural evolution for spring, even if I am a bit late to the party!

I am wearing my Shoemint blue suede booties, Banana Republic grey pencil skirt, jacquard tank from Club Monaco, and navy/black zebra cardigan from Ricki's. I added a chunky silver necklace (also from Ricki's) because I like the way it suggest a lower neckline over the high-necked top.

The booties with visible legs post also links to a "booties with skirts and dresses" post from '09. If you're keeping score, Here are the suggested guidelines from '09 for wearing booties with skirts and dresses:

  1. Adjust your eyes to the look (check!)
  2. Keep the leg line one colour (--)
  3. Keep it heeled (check!)
  4. Expose the knee cap (check!)
  5. Choose a flop proof style (check!)
