Ask Tracy Questions & Answers for October

Q: Hi Tracy, I am about 5’1. Would wearing an over-the-knee boots make me look even shorter than what I really am? What styles do you think I should try?
A: DO IT GIRL!! If you keep the color solid from the waist down you will lengthen your look…and if you dress in all one color even more flattering. Pants or tights with a dress or skirt….keep it simple and get a pair that you can fold over for more versatile styling! Rock those boots!!! Here are some looks that I love:
Franco Sarto Tripod
Vince Camuto Lexine
Q: Tracy, I live in Chicago and would love to find a fashionable and functional pair of boots for colder weather. I hate looking frumpy when I’m out in snow, slush and chilly winds. What can you suggest?
A: A pair that are specifically made for foul weather would be best…and now the options are so stylish you can be fab and functional at the same time. I love the faux fur trend…and this is a great place to wear it. Here are two of my faves:
Sorel Cate the Great
Juicy Couture Everest
Q: I want to help my dad update his closet, because I don’t think he’s purchased a hip pair of shoes since the early 90s. Tracy, what would be a good,Gucci outlet online, new casual style for him to try?
A: I love the slip-on loafer. It is hip, but not too hip. It is comfy but still refined. Can be worn with or without socks. And it just looks cool. Here are a couple of options for you to suggest to him….suede is really awesome, but the leather rocks, too!
