Ciao a tutti!
Confession time, my fellow Shoe-A-Holics...I'm glad it's cool. Now let me explain, it's been an unseasonably cold winter with the occasional bursts of spring (remember that week of mid-70's in January...then again in February?); which left me wishing for a quick summer warm up, but it came too fast, and 60 degree days were replaced by mid-80's, and I found myself vastly unprepared...I haven't quite made it in for my spring kick-off pedicure, so the feet are looking...well...rough, after a pretty active boot season!
But with the weather cooling just as quickly as it warmed up, I have the chance to break out the last few remnants of an almost gone winter season, and another favorite transition pair of footwear, booties!
In one word, booties are Chic! A shorter version of their taller counterpart, booties are sexy and playful, daring and dressy. They are the ideal winter staple if, like me, you have trouble with the shaft of traditional boots; whether too tight or too loose or if they just can't seem to keep their shape, a bootie eliminates the headache, giving you a sleek, pulled together look.
My Advice: Find a statement pair like these. A daring heel, an internal platform, zipper detail, or a bold color; if you can't perfect your look with a boot, then find the perfect bootie!
Baci a tutti!

MIA Limited Edition -Trail
Ciao a tutti!
My fellow Shoe-A-Holics, I recently had the opportunity to witness a time honored tradition of this nations' first peoples; historically a gathering of Native Americans, the 2013 Lowcountry Pow Wow gathered those of Native American heritage (and those of us who aren't) in a serene lakeside setting, once home to the Yemassee tribes people, to partake in great this spectacle of pageantry.
Baci a tutti!

Name: Trail
Style: Western-Style Boot
Heel: 3.5 inches (8.89 cm)
Shaft: 6 inches (15.24 cm)
Material: Distressed Leather Upper, slouchy shaft atop a stacked heel
And yes, my fellow Shoe-A-Holics, I do get the irony or wearing cowboy boots to a Pow Wow...I should have gone with my first instincts and wore my knee high moccasins.
