In Arizona, we like to pretend that we have actual seasons. To help prove our point, the peep-toe ankle bootie is here to transition us from winter wear (or shan’t I say, fall wear, my fellow Arizona fashionistas?) into spring. With these, it’s one design, many styles and even more wears.
Take the military number by Alexander Wang seen on March Vogue’s “Military Issue” spread gracing the stems of Isabeli Fontana, Sasha Pivovarova, and Liya Kebede. Or, Balenciaga’s take follows through with the tribal prints we’ve also seen on and off the spring runways. Nina Ricci proves to add a whimsical touch à la Alice In Wonderland on the bootie as well.
These are just a few among the numbers, only lightly tapping into the variety of styles one can find amongst the peep-toe ankle boot crowd. Laced-up, embellished, open-heeled, bold prints and colours – variety abounds.
Pair these with some sleek leggings or spring 2010’s accompanying above-the-knee bell skirt and a knock-out pedicure and you’re ready to go.
