Nothing is more stressful than shopping during that awkward “in-between” summer and fall transition. When it gets too cold to wear sandals but is still too hot to wear boots, picking out a pair of shoes is a girl’s biggest dilemma. Luckily, there are still plenty of season-friendly shoes in various heights and patterns that you can fashionably strut around in. Whether you are going to class, having a date night, or even going out with the girls the possibilities are endless. With these stylish and low budget tips, you will never let that deceiving weather leave you in defeat!
What better way to make your legs look bootie-ful, than with a pair of neutral temperature booties? Booties can be rocked during any occasion, making them the perfect pair of shoes for any “in-between” temperatures. Booties come in a range of styles, heights, and crazy patterns, so there is always a style to complement your event attire, and your body shape!
Going out to the city with your girlfriends? Heeled booties are perfect for any nighttime outfit, dressed up with a skater-girl skirt or form fitting dress to make your legs look fabulous. Snooze that alarm for your 8 am class just five too many times this morning? Dress down some colored, flat or chunky heeled booties with a pair of skinny jeans and a flowy or silky top for a casual but cute look. The best part: so many good quality, stylish designs can be purchased from stores like Forever21 for under $45!
Feeling feminine? Ballet flats are must-haves in every girl’s closet! These fashion staples come in a plethora of patterns and colors, and are the perfect pair of girly shoes for the “in-between” weather. In this season is the cap-toe style of ballet flats. These ballet flats beautifully blend a range of colors to set the tone for any outfit, while also making the shoes able to match a variety of colored and patterned outfits for when you need to grab a pair on the go! J Crew Factory has super stylish cap-toe ballet flats at affordable prices thanks to its convenient constant sale promotions. Match with a pair of pretty floral designed ballet flats paired with white jeans and a matching solid top and blazer for a classy, feminine look. Other charming patterns include stripes, lace, polka dots, and more, making the flats pretty amazing for any occasion.
Whoever said ankle straps were selectively exclusive for heels clearly did not know where to shop! Relatively new to the fashion world are ballet flats with ankle straps, and can I say, these shoes are incredibly adorable! They come in both solid and multicolored designs, which adds such a classic and professional look to them, making them ideal for dressier attires. These flats have been a huge hit in the fashion market, especially with iconic celebrity figures, so do not forget to add a pair to your closet this “in-between” season from fashion forward stores like Lulus!
The gist is, don’t let the “in-between” weather trick you into dressing for the wrong season! You can never go wrong with a pair of booties or ballerina flats for the fluctuating temperatures, so go out and find yourself a personality-fitting pattern and show the weather who’s boss!
