Shake Your Bootie

Laddhavan Sutana Knit Booties

A few weeks ago, you were all about the “Seasons of Love.” You embraced the gift-giving spirit, adorned your home in little twinkling lights, and belted out holiday tunes at the top of your lungs.

Now you’re staring out the window, thinking about your own rent (and heating bill) and dreading the thought of pulling on boots (once again) to trudge through the slush just to be, ugh, social.

No reason you can’t take your open-toe heels out tonight. Just slip Laddhavan Sutana’s knit pom-pom booties over your strappies while you walk and you’ll stay warm and toasty. If you’re giving your toes the winter off, you can wear the cozy covers over your everyday boots to add a little flash. Made of wool mohair or cotton, the booties tie at the ankle and come in cream, basic black, and electric blue.

So you can bop from bar to bar in any of your peek-a-boo shoes no matter the weather.

All 525,600 minutes of the year, if you so choose.
