Whenever I stop searching for something, I find it. I’ve been looking for fun, comfortable round-toe, low heeled tomato red booties for years, but nothing pleased my fussy feet. Then I accidentally stumbled across these little darlings and fell in love. I ordered them, popped them through their stylish paces and voila – another unexpected pair of 8-hour shoes. Brilliant.
Booties are an excellent alternative to ankle boots, loafers and oxfords. They’re warmer than pumps and ballet flats because you can wear them with cozy socks, but cooler than mid-calf or knee-high boots because there is less coverage. Perfect for warm Winter and cool Spring weather.
These booties are available in three colours (grey, red and black). They’re soft, cushioning and roomy in the toe box, meaning that the bootie might work for a slightly broader foot too. The two inch heel is ideal and the vintage ruching detail is charming. Suede is not a good idea in wet weather but the flat leather styles can be sufficiently waterproofed with waterproofing spray. I went up half a size to accommodate my long toes, an insole and thicker sock, but you might be fine ordering your regular footwear size. I hope they work out as well for you as they did for me.
