Miss New Bootie

*

Baby Sis sent me a gushy FB message today about the chic-osity that is the bootie.

I, for one, have not fully recovered from my all-consuming infatuation with the bootie, nor do I expect to anytime soon. With that in mind, I trotted off to the malls for a spot of detective work. And I was not disappointed.

Granted, booties have a tendency of looking less than flattering when worn on the wrong pair of feet. But few things are as aesthetically pleasing as the sight of booties worn by someone who can pull it off.

Booties score extra points for versatility. They're the perfect shoes for spicing up a casual outfit. They lend a certain sauciness to an otherwise staid work ensemble. They are, without doubt, the star of any carefully selected wardrobe for a night out.

As with most trends, the key to working the bootie is to wear them with confidence. And for the love of Louboutin, break them in first before wearing those brand new babies out in public! There's no point in having on a killer outfit if you can barely walk in your shoes.

Final Verdict: Addictive (who can honestly say they can resist buying more than one pair?) and thoroughly sexy.
