Shoes: The Genius of the Cut-Out Bootie, Plus a Gladiator Wedge Sandal

I realized what works about the cut-out bootie is that it makes boots a viable option in warmer weather. Being a person who love boots and wears them about 80% of the time, I completely understand this. (The majority of my shoes are boots; it's a little out of control.) Normally one can't wear boots in the summer without either looking like a total prat or sweating their poor feet off, but a cut-out ankle boot-type of deal allows one to carry their love of a heavy, super-tough shoe into the summer season. Plus, those cut-outs are actually practical as ventilation!

Despite my ever-conflicted feelings about Topshop, I am most fond of this boot and curse the day my feet stopped growing because they're no longer available in my size (why must I have tiny feet?):

It's just as well, because while I love a nice boot, I unfortunately have an aversion to high heels. Perhaps I will just stick to my summer shoe staple, the gladiator sandal, this time sexed up with a serious wedge:

By the way, this shoe is inexplicably called the "Heech"...why? Who names these things, anyway?
