Build your fall wardrobe from the bottom up with this season’s It footwear trend: the bootie.
Style: The Kitten Heel
Getty ImagesThis season, kitten heels come with major style edge thanks to cone heels and so-pointy-they’re-practically-lethal toes. Look for notice-me details, like metal studs or a stripe of white, to update basic black pairs.
STYLE TIP: Wear your fave kitten-heel booties with textured black tights under skirts and dresses for a seamless, leg-lengthening look

Style: The White Bootie
Getty ImagesSpring’s must-have shoe feels just as fresh for fall, especially when paired with your best denim and cozy tops — like a chunky alpine-knit sweater and boyfriend jeans or your favourite menswear-inspired blazer and black skinnies.
STYLE TIP: Skip the wide-leg pants — they’ll distract from the attention these statement-makers deserve. Remember: The cuff of your jeans should graze the top of the shoe, showing the smallest sliver of skin.

Style: Feminine
Getty ImagesFeminine doesn’t have to scream over-the-top girlie. The proof? The new high-heeled booties, which flirt with Victorian and boho influences. Think thick laces and bows, chunky heels and vintage floral vibes with a hint of ’90s nostalgia.
STYLE TIP: These booties play well with your fave floaty or floral midi-dresses. Be sure to go bare-legged to show off these eye-catching floral and lace-up styles.
