Have you ever walked into a store looking for a pair of boots that just kind of does it all? Alright, maybe not with every single outfit, but styles that you can toss on and don't really have to do any extra work because they just work. Ones that will top off your look but really low maintenance? We call this the staple shoe. The staple shoe is a boot aka ankle boot and bootie(s).

Booties are a great shoe because they are not challenging to master, but the problem may be finding a pair that actually works for you. Lets solve this problem together! But, before we dive in lets learn how to wear them and which style to aim for. Certain styles of booties are more limiting than others, and then you have styles that go with literally everything. Yes! I said everything. 

Here are a few of the most popular booties.

 WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF BOOTIES?

Being in the fashion world for many years now I have realized booties are easily a low maintenance staple shoe that every woman should own. Not only are they one of the easiest to style, but they are great for women who are not so gifted in the fashion department. Nearly everyone can figure out a look that goes great with booties.

You really don't need a handful of different booties to get it right. Starting out with a pair that fit your personality and style is going to be the best bet. Don't buy multiple pairs on impulse because more likely than not most of them you will never wear.

After years of putting together outfits, I’ve realized that I definitely need multiple styles of booties to make what I have in my closet work. In other words, one style of bootie doesn’t really fit all looks. Wouldn’t you agree? And it can be challenging to know which style/color bootie is going to be my “winner” for the season – aka the one I actually wear more than once. It’s so frustrating when I think I’ve found the cutest bootie ever, I buy it, and then I’m only able to wear it like 2-3 times that season. I think we all know how that goes, right?

So what is it that makes a bootie just work? What is IT factor? The answer to these two questions is ease and versatility. A pair of boots can spice up almost every look because it it can be so versatile. Ill go ahead and explain which look pairs best with each style bootie above. 

Chunky Heel Boot pairs in perfection with skinny jeans and leggings. Chunky Heel Booties give your skinnies a great balancing slimming effect. It makes the proportions as far as your body and wardrobe very well balanced and flattering.

Peep Toe Boot look phenomenal with skirts and dresses. The peep toe effect gives balance. Again, its all about balance. The skin shows with a skirt or dress gives off the bare look without going overboard but accentuates your look

Pointy Toe Boot is a fall staple must-have. If the boot is open with straps as pictured below skinny jeans or leggings are the way to go. The same goes for tall over-the-knee boots but just add a mini skirt instead of leggings if your going for a bada-s look.

Wedge Boot Ahhh the wedge boot, the most versatile of them all believe it or not. This style can literally be worn with anything. Yes, anything! Leggings, skinnies, dresses and all.

The idea behind Bohemian Style, clothing and whole getup can sometimes be confused with the modern hippie. However, Bohemian Style stems from the modern day Gypsy and free spirit wrapped all in one. Our favorite part about mastering the Boho Style is the level of comfortableness and level of fashion.

Bohemian Style is much different than the traveling gypsy's you're probably thinking of. Try to clear your mind and get "My big fat gypsy wedding" out of your head. Time to clear those thoughts.

Learning the Bohemian must have essentials actually are quite easy. Bohemian Style is all about loose fitting, flow-y dresses, head wraps, accessory overload, and hats. To master the look takes a little trial and error by playing up with your pieces. One of the greatest parts of the boho look is that you can play up with all the pieces and recreate many different looks just with a few pieces.

Don't forget to checkout all of our Boho Clothing  to see all the different pieces that might be worth investing in even on a budget.

Time to get shoppin' babes!
