Singer22.com has got some new sandal bootie arrivals and they’re calling these “the hottest this season”. I’m sure they mean that figuratively but with these sandals they can also mean that literally.
Presenting, the brand spankin’ new furry, feathery and fringy sandal booties from Koolaburra, the Aurora, the Kythira and the Venus:
That’s right, these are new arrivals. Introduced right in the middle of the heat of SUMMER.
Okay, I’ll start with the easy ones first. I can actually see a lot of people wearing the fringe and feather sandals despite the ankle cuff/bootie part being fur lined. No one’s going to see or feel that except the wearer anyway. And even though keeping your ankles warm and the rest of your feet bare doesn’t make any sense, let’s face it, fashion doesn’t always and never does have to make sense. Also, those fringe, bead and feather details are unignoreably cute – very trendy, very boho chic, and great for spicing up an outfit when you’re too lazy and all you want to wear is a tank top and denim shorts.
The one that’s going to be harder to defend is the fur sandal bootie. Okay, fur feels warm, fabulous and just oh-so-touchable, but really? Fur? In the summer? “Showing a bit of fur in the summer” is apparently a new trend Koolaburra is trying to make happen.
Let me end this with a picture of Vanessa Hudgens who was seen wearing the Koolaburra Auroras just very recently. Being that she is one of the foremost young Hollywood style icons today, is this a foreboding of things to come in the near future of fashion? :
