Q: I'm seeing booties at all the stores at the mall and I want to try this trend but I'm unsure how to wear them. Do you tuck skinny jeans into them? Or are they meant for skirts and dresses? Any booties that you recommend for a 32-year-old woman?
Q: I'm 29 and want to try booties out this fall. How do I pick a pair that's age-appropriate? What can I wear my booties with? I was thinking dresses, skirts and skinny jeans.
A: Booties are the perfect way to add subtle edge to your wardrobe, and a black pair with a closed, round toe will work for any age. Wear them with everything from flirty knee-length sheath dresses or pretty pencil skirts to more sophisticated ankle-length slim-fit trousers or jeans.
