a thing of bootie is a joy forever



My eye is constantly drawn to black booties. They're so not my normal style but the weather is still sometimes warm enough that I could see myself wearing peep toe booties with dresses and bare legs... sigh. It's so a look I'd love to wear.

These Zanottis must cost a mint - I don't even dare ask. They're just so sculptural, and I love the polka dot brass rings..




And these shapes, also at Zanotti.. something for everyone. So what did I do?



Popped over to Office, in Spitalfields, and tried a similar pair there. I'm proud to say I still haven't bought a thing, and am happily trotting around in last year's plain black riding boots.

What boot silhouette are you wearing now? Booties with heels? Over the knee? Biker boots? Cuban heels? Stiletto heels? None of the above? (Or, if you live in warmer climates, or south of the equator, what shape are you wearing in sandals?)

I love how this season, there's something for everyone. Never in my memory has there been so much choice in footwear. Don't you just love it?

I keep pulling out my Pliner "Haiden" platform brogues and loving them with everything. I'm also on a hard lookout for a platform wedge bootie like the ones you saw everywhere at LFW -- you infected me with those things! Also still hankering for some OTK boots, but waiting to decide if they're a one-season fad before I shell out the bucks.

Dearest Jill
I have send you an email, love :)
So sorry for the very long absence. In the past weeks the energy level was pretty small....
Wow - did you know that Zanotti is my favorite shoe designer?! I love the boots so much! (and my second favorite is Isabel Marant ;) ) I could purchase every pair of boots here.... Not good. Not healthy....

Wishing you a wonderful evening, sweetheart!!
