Bootie Pies: Pedicure Boots for Posh Toes #WIN
It is not to often that I get an opportunity to enjoy some 100% "me time". When I do get the opportunity I almost always opt to get a pedicure. A pedicure guarantees me a good hour of relaxation, a nice massage if I choose from the massage chair and usually some peace and quiet. However, I don't want to stay in the nail salon all day and I absolutely hate waiting for the polish to dry. I have been guilty of leaving long before I should have on several occasions. In the summer leaving before fully dry is o.k., I just slip on my flip flops and I am on my way. Trying to put socks and shoes on in the winter is a tad more difficult so I am forced to wait until they are fully dry.. Thanks to Bootie Pies I have found a way to solve this problem!
Bootie Pies are warm and cozy boots that let you enjoy a pedicure in the winter as well as help cut drying time. They currently offer two types of boots, a low boot and a high boot. Both are made of suede with a faux sheepskin lining and a patent leather toe. The low boot is currently priced at $68 and the high boot is priced at $88. Before you make any judgements based on the price let me share with you how exactly they work and why I feel they are well worth the money!
How They Work:
My Thoughts: When I first received these boots I was immediately impressed. I received a pair of the Blackberry High Boots for review and was honestly surprised by how much of a casual winter boot they looked like. If I didn't know better, I would have never known their full potential of being a pedicure boot. Bootie Pies currently offers these boots in whole sizes from a 5-11. Although they recommend ordering down a size if you wear a half size I personally recommend ordering up a size. I ordered down a size and the first time I put them on they were snug fitting, I even had a bit of a hard time getting the toe to go down because of them being snug. Of course, I was trying to do it all with a sock on so this could have been part of the problem. When it was time for me to actually get a pedicure I tried them with no socks and it seemed much better, the patent toe went down much smoother as well.
Not much was said about the boots until which time I put the toe down for drying. The look on the nail techs face was priceless as she had never seen such a thing! Her as well as other customers were filled with questions and kept staring at them in awe. I think it is also important to note that it was raining when I went to get my pedicure and these boots still looked nice after trampling around in the rain. They are supposed to hold up in all weather conditions but it is highly recommended to waterproof them like you would any other type of suede shoe.
If you are looking for a versatile boot that you can wear around town before and after a pedicure, keeps your feet warm and cozy and allows you to significantly cut drying time after a pedicure, I highly recommend Bootie Pies!
