What is a shoetie?

A shoetie is a style of shoe that is a cross between a bootie and a shoe (a very short bootie or a very high heel shoe). It is a style that provides some coverage and is easy to slip on and off. Most shoetie styles have a zipper in the back of the heel. Currently they are considered very modern for warm weather. Wear shoeties with dresses, short shorts, long shorts, rompers and skirts too. Short females should wear them with regular length trousers and jeans to avoid looking dumpy.
