Raise your hand if you love wearing booties in the fall, but sometimes shy away from them because they aren’t that comfortable? My hand is so far up!! I love wearing booties, but if I know I have a lot of walking and/or standing to do that day, I tend to reach for a comfortable pair of sneakers.

Jambu has solved that problem! Instead of looking like I am heading out to the gym in sneakers, I can slip into these fabulous new booties by Jambu and look chic while running through my busy day. They are as comfortable as a walking shoe, without looking like a comfort shoe. Love that!

These chic booties by Jambu are classic black, and offer hot-off-the-runway styling. The mirco-studs combined with the understated scalloped edges, give the boots an edgy-chic look which is perfect for both urban streets and laid-back suburban life.

In addition to fabulous style, I love the fact that these boots have memory foam inside! It helps them mold to my feet and offer a comfort level which can’t be beat. The rubber sole is great this time of year too since it’s our rainy season here in the San Francisco Bay Area.  Love!

I love pairing my Jambu Rimini booties with jeans or leggings. On warmer days, they look really cute paired with a dress or skirt. These booties are so versatile! I can wear them with anything. They will be great for travel since they can be paired with so many different types of outfits; and because you can walk for miles and miles in them! OK that’s it! Time to plan my next vacation so I can pack these booties! Where shall I go?

The entire fall collection from Jambu offers a combination of function and style. They have the most comfortable booties for women! You can check out all the new arrivals from Jambu online here, and the entire collection online at Jambu.com Be sure to use discount code BAYAREA18 now through Oct. 31, 2018 to save 15% off your purchase!

Fall 2018 shoe trends: kitten heels

fall 2018 shoe trends kitten heels

Fall 2018 shoe trends kitten heels from top left: black ankle pump / white kitten heel bootie (under $150!) / blue and black bow tie mule / grey animal print bootie (under $200!) / leopard print kitten heel bootie (under $250!) / black kitten heel bootie with small studs /

Theeeeeeeeey’re baaaaaaa-aaaaack! That’s right! Those tiny little skinny heels are back, and they are everywhere for the fall 2018 season. Meow!

If you have started to shop for fall 2018 shoes, you may have noticed a trend in both heel height and shape. You are not hallucinating, the kitten heel has returned for the fall season, leaving fashionistas slighter shorter this season. Where is my free height? Short girl over here asking for some inches! (See me waving my hand high and fast! No? Must be my kitten heels keeping me short, I need some height!)

Despite the fact that kitten heels only provide one inch of height at most, they are actually comfortable as long as you don’t mind balancing on a stiletto width heel. Kitten heels don’t put very much pressure on the balls of your foot, and they have just enough height to provide a bit of arch support. They are a great alternative to flats this season; especially if you are like me, and try to avoid flats at all costs.

I purchased a pair of white kitten heel booties and they are a great option when I don’t want to wear my high heel booties. I also love the 1950s vintage vibe kitten heels provide. We haven’t rocked a lot of 1950s trends lately, so it’s refreshing to take something from that decade and make it new again.

The kitten heel is being found on all of the fall 2018 shoe trends right now. You can find them on boots, booties, mules, pumps, and slides. Put a bow on the mules or add an animal print to the booties, and you have an IT item of the season. Love that!

I love kitten heels on booties, but when it comes to pumps, I prefer a higher heel. What is your take on kitten heels? Will you rock this fall 2018 shoe trend or will you skip it? What is your favorite shoe style with a kitten heel this season?

Fall 2018 shoe trends: booties

fall 2018 shoe trends booties for fall from top left: white booties / low ankle gold booties (on my fall wish list) / low ankle distressed charcoal booties (on my fall wish list) / brick red booties / white split shaft booties (I own these and love them!) / black patent booties (on my fall wish list) /

Booties are one of the hottest fall 2018 shoe trends on the street, and they are also one of the most classic form of autumn footwear. Booties for fall are fabulous because they can be paired with skirts, dresses, and pants. They may just be the most versatile style of footwear for the fall season. Love that!

The fall 2018 season is full of new bootie styles. Western inspiration is huge this season, and you will see tons of cowboy inspired footwear hitting store shelves. I love how you can find designers who reinvented the cowboy boot for fall, as well as took inspiration from the style and incorporated traits of it into a more classic bootie style. If full-blown cowboy boots aren’t your thing, look for styles with western inspiration, and a more a classic silhouette. This is what I will be doing! I have my eyes on this pair and this pair.

Split shaft booties were a hot trend last year, and they are showing no signs of slowing down this year. Look for several designer takes on the split shaft booties trend for fall 2018. I own this comfortable pair and this pair from last year, currently on a deep discount, which are also comfortable.

One of the big bootie trends from last year, which is also continuing this year, is the sock bootie trend. Look for more skin tight bootie styles to appear on store shelves this year.

Combat boots are also a big trend for fall in the wide world of boots. Look for lug soles booties, hiking boot inspired booties, and chunky, funky boots. You may also notice some 1990s Dr. Marten inspiration on store shelves. Grab your Doc’s and pop in a Nine Inch Nails CD; it’s not the twilight zone, your high school concert style is back!

You may also notice studs lining the perimeter of many bootie styles this upcoming fall season. While full blown studded styles are bit too heavy for autumn, studded lines and outlines are fresh and right for fall. I love this pair.

What are your favorite booties for fall 2018?
