Would you be my shootie?



Finally I can say it is the Fall season! I mean when you're in Manila, it's basically summer, rainy season, holidays, and everything else in between. We don't have winter, fall and spring seasons and fashion. And that's just sad.

Fall season started early this week and everyone's gearing up for the season's hot fashion trends... because in a month or so, everyone will be so covered up come winter. I bought some boots to prepare my pretty feet for the cold weather, and the shootie was on top of my list.

A shootie is a hot hot silhouette that's half boot, half shoe. It's similar to a bootie, except that that's more of a boot than a shoe. This one looks more like a shoe. (I think). You can wear this with skinny jeans, tights (I can finally wear tights!), and pencil skirts and you'd look oh-so fabulous walking down the street. Downtown San Francisco may not be like the streets of New York or Milan, as seen in the Sartorialist.. but a significant few do dress to impress even at daytime.

They're actually called a derby (lace up example for sure) origin rooted in Victorian times UK.

thanks for the info jacqueline. im sure they're called something else. :) "shootie" was just a play of words used by some shoe fanatics.
