Today I went shopping for new booties for early fall. I've been lusting after a pair of light colored booties with a little heel for ages, but I've found very little. Too western, too expensive, too high heels and so on.&nbsp;Lo and behold, today I found a pair of booties in light grayish brown, suede, with stacked heels. They are by <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.hope-sthlm.com/womens-shop">Hope</a>, a Swedish brand I really like, but rarely splurge on. Thee booties are from the Spring/Summer collection and was marked down by 70%, so I really got value for my money this time. In regards of Angie's check list for off season purchases, I can give a resounding YES to everything: <ol> <li><span>Is the item a “must have” or a “nice-to-have” on your shopping list? —<strong><em>must have </em></strong><i>(a big wardrobe hole)</i></span></li> <li>Is the item very hard to find? –&nbsp;<em><strong>yes </strong>(very, have been looking for months)</em></li> <li><em><strong></strong></em>Is the item perfect, or do you have (even minor) doubts about it? –&nbsp;<em><strong>perfect </strong>(leather sole, leather upper,&nbsp;perfect fit, color and style for me)</em></li> <li>Do you like to adjust your style a little or a lot from season to season as you experiment with new trends? —&nbsp;<em><strong>a little&nbsp;</strong></em></li> <li>Is the item more “timeless classic”, or is it more “current trend”? —<em><strong>timeless classic </strong>(I think it will last a few seasons)</em></li> <li>Will you be able to wear the item within 3 months? —&nbsp;<em><strong>yes </strong>(from now on until November, then onwards as indoor shoes during Winter)</em></li> </ol> This is only a snapshot of the booties, but I will try to find time for a few outfit shots soon. I hope you like them for me Thanks for looking and reading!<br /><i><br /></i> </p>
