The Shootie - What the heck is it?


Have you heard of a "shootie"? What exactly is a "shootie"? This is a catchy name for a shoe that is a cross between a boot and a shoe, and they are very much in style. They are made in a variety of materials, have a great range of heel heights and can be worn by women of all ages. There are so many styles to choose from, and no matter what your outfit, you will find the perfect pair to match it!

During the cold months, you may want to try a sheepskin shootie. They will keep your feet warm, and the look is very trendy right now. This is a really cute look with jeans and a chunky sweater. You have seen or heard of the Uggs brand, and they make some really cool shooties.

With the holiday season upon us, try a festive red pair of shooties. These definitely will make a statement, as red always does. Of course, you can't go wrong with the basic black or brown leather pair either. Suede shooties are also fabulous, and they are out there in brown and black as well as many other color palettes. They look great in purple!

If you are more on the cutting edge, there are shooties available in metallic, peep-toes, snakeskin and numerous other materials and styles, too. Picture a nice pair of gold shooties with black leggings and a tunic top; this is a great look for a weekend night out. Shooties can be found in looks that are quite plain, or you can find them embellished with zippers, beads, laces and embroidery.

Shooties are readily available both in stores and online. They are worth taking a look at if you want the boot look, but you don't want the whole boot!

This fabulous boot is the Bela Shootie from Nine West.
