Bootie Showdown!

I am obsessed with fall’s multitude of cute booties!!! (no, not that kind of bootie!) Now that I’ve found several styles, colors and textures I adore, the hardest part is going to be figuring out which to buy! I’ve decided to put myself on a bootie-diet and only allow myself to purchase one pair this season. So far, these are in the running…. thoughts???

1) Western booties

Pour La Victoire – Tatiana, $165 @ 6pm.com

2) Spat aka “foldover booties”

Volatile Women’s Cloak Ankle Boot, $59.99 @ www.endless.com

3) Platform booties

Frye – Harlow Campus Bootie, $258 @ zappos.com

Stalking time!

not for your ex-boyfriend silly, for boots! with the seasons-a-changing, winter boot styles are on sale everywhere! now’s the time to think about that pair you wanted all winter, but just couldn’t manage (when oh when am I gonna win mega millions!?). Stalk-Stalk-Stalk ladies! Find the pair you must have, make sure you have the style name and number and STALK! I’ve been googling my must have cognac Fryes (and yes, I already have them in black, what’s it to you?!) and got the best deal at Revolve! Hope you can find your previously unaffordable true love!

I need to join a self-help group to stop buying boots!

We all know I have a problem (multiple problems, actually, but that is for another post), I am currently obsessed with Steve Madden. Last season, my snobby self would have scoffed at the mere prospect of trying on a pair of SM boots, and now I am obsessed. The beauty of owning literally 4 pairs for the price of ONE Weitzman’s just has my heart pumping and honestly, they are just adorable! Whoever is doing their designing deserves big kuddos! My newest acquistion- the RIDDER in grey leather (delish!). AND just $132.97 with free shipping! Can’t go wrong with that!

Calling all frugalistas!

I seriously could not believe it. These boots are amazing! AND on sale for $139.97 (with free shipping)!!! The color and fit are amazing. Yes, they are Steve Madden, but the style screams something ten times more expensive. I won’t tell if you don’t! They are just the flat boot I need this season. They are sleek and dressy enough to be chic (e.g., NOT a Frye-like cowgirl look) and with the teensy wedge heel (only 1 inch!) sure to be comfortable!

Plus, at this price, I won’t feel guilty trudging them through the snow and throwing them away at the end of the season.

Step into the fall with an S&F Best Buy!

I am totally in love with this season’s over-the-knee boots. After trying on about 13 pairs of $300+ boots I was frustrated that none of them fit right or had a heel that was comfortable, yet sexy. Feeling my pain, the Bloomies sales lady suggested I try on a pair of Guess (yes! GUESS!) Rumala boots and wouldn’t you know it, I fell in love… The leather is soft and supple, hits just where I want it and has a great stacked heel (without looking slutty!) …and for $199 these were a real steal!

Can’t believe I love them more than my $700+ Loeffler’s… there goes being a snob!
