It's week two of the Fall Style Me Pretty Challenge, and there's been a lot of great fashion going on.
In every challenge there is a piece or two recommended by Alison that is completely outside my comfort zone. This time it was the booties. I've never worn them before, and I definitely had no idea how to style them. But I always listen to Alison, so I bought a pair.
And as usual, I love them. They take an ordinary plaid shirt and boyfriend jean outfit and make it just a little more interesting. I found this pair of Franco Sarto booties at Nordstrom Rack for $39.95, which is almost like stealing them.

I can't believe you didn't own any booties! These look great on you. I LOVE that chocolate brown colour you found.

I think I was avoiding them because of the height. But I really like them now!
DeleteThe booties are tough! I didn't get my first pair until spring and it took me a while to love them. But now, especially in fall, I am loving them. Hey look great on you!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christy - I'm really enjoying them.
DeleteGreat booties. I have 2 pairs and love them.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what took me so long!
DeleteAll of your outfits look fantastic! Great shoes too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anna!
DeleteYou give "bootie bootie" a whole new rhythm. Love your lower black svelt coat look too. You look sharp, content and happy in all of your outfits!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteGreat look
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteGreat job styling of the "new" booties. Great find from the Rack. Cute!

I was really happy with them. Thanks!
DeleteI haven't known how to wear the booties, but they look great on you. I always get some good advice here on Wednesdays! :)
ReplyDeleteI think this look would look really cute on you.
DeleteLove that plaid shirt!

DeleteYou look great in those booties! I've had some since last year, but I'm enjoying actually wearing them on a consistent basis now! Sometimes it takes me a while! :)
ReplyDeleteMe too - I'm always very slow with new trends!
DeleteYou are rocking those booties! I love the rich brown color!

Thank you Jill - I love the color too!
DeleteVery nice styles!
ReplyDeleteNice job with the booties! I love stepping out of my comfort zone a bit in these challenges.
ReplyDeleteThat's the most fun part for me too.
DeleteLove all those looks on you Lana and those booties are fab! Looking great girl :)

Thank you Nora!
DeleteI've never worn booties, I don't think! Maybe I have. I definitely like the look and the rich color a lot.
ReplyDeleteMight not be the easiest shoe to wear while chasing kids, but it would be a cute look on you!
DeleteYou are so good at this Lana. I saw someone with rolled up jeans the other day, and was wondering if I could pull off that look. The booties look great! I have been studying the center photo in the collage - is that a black sweater or a jacket? I love the cut of it!
ReplyDeleteSusan, this would be a great look on you - you definitely could pull it off! It's a sweater that I got last year at Target - an open cardigan, and it is really comfy. I think I've seen them there this year too.
DeleteThis is an adorable look on you! I love those wedge booties!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura!
DeleteI love those booties!
ReplyDeleteBooties were a definite challenge for me too but I'm kinda loving them! They take up the 'trendy' in an outfit immediately!
I agree - and so easy too!
DeleteI like them!!!! I saw it and wend on-line to find something for myself and.... I found a dozed I want!!!! I just love booties!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for a few more pair myself!
DeleteCute! I need to jazz up my fall wardrobe for work. Maybe I'll look for a pair.
ReplyDeleteI have seen them everywhere!
DeleteYou are looking great your outfits, Lana. I really like those little booties. I think I regret not purchasing the lace ups - I think they are very versatile. Do you like them?
ReplyDeleteI really like the lace ups except I think I need different laces - they come undone a lot!
DeleteOoohh, look at that cutie in those booties! I recently took the plunge and bought myself a pair. I think I might be in love with the bootie!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
