I confess, I haven’t worn my Toms Desert Booties as much as I expected I would (or as much as I would like to) but sometimes I find them hard to style, and also, it is COLD and I tend to revert to my taller boots that cover more of the leg.
I still love these booties, though, and I am determined to get more wear out of them in the next few months. They really go a long way towards updating my look. Booties are more now that knee-high boots, even though I dare say knee-high boots aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.
The best way I know to answer your question is to show you photos of how I’ve worn them. I like to wear them with skinny jeans and roll the hem so it ends just above the top of the shoe.
I do a narrow cuff, not too wide, and they definitely have to be a skinny fit. A straight leg jean would not work.
I didn’t roll my camo pants when I wore them with those since they are already sort of cropped.
My favorite way to wear them is definitely cuffed with skinnies. Here’s another outfit. Since they are a neutral color, they work with most things, but I do like to have a hint of that sand color in my outfit somewhere. In this case, it’s in the leopard scarf.

Love them with the Camo!!
Thanks for this! I bought a pair of suede wedge booties from Kohl’s. I really wanted those TOMS, but I compromised and I really, really love the booties I bought. I was a little confused on how to wear them though. I rolled my jeans and then unrolled, because I just wasn’t sure I could pull off that look. Plus, I thought it cut my leg off a bit. I’ll try rolling them again.

I’m definitely still learning how to wear my booties, so thanks for this! I love the pink top outfit. And, well, all of them honestly!
Great styling on all of these outfits! My friend styled hers with tights and a skirt over the weekend and they looked really cute with it. I love how you paired them with the cuffed jean.
Those booties are adorable!
That was my question from the survey! Thank you! I did end up finding a pair of jeans from The Limited that looks good cuffed with the Toms booties. Maybe I will wear them tomorrow!
Oh yay! Let us know how it goes!
OMG I never saw those before, but they are now on my must have list. Shoot I hate reading your blog it costs me money. LOL! However, thank you for a new obsession. 😀
LOL, blogging costs me money! HAHA!
I haven’t tried rolling the pants up. I usually just let the fabric gather. But the roll is cute.
Love the booties! JCrew has a nice pair also, although pricier than the TOMS. I, too, like the booties with skinnies, cuffed! Where did you get the camo pants and the cute coral colored top?
The camo pants were from Gap earlier this season. The top is Lucky Brand – from a local shop.
Hi! Have you ever had problems with your jeans’ dye rubbing off on your booties? Mine did, and they are sending me a new pair. I don’t want it to happen again!
Hi Candi. I have heard that you should wash your jeans in a vinegar solution to help prevent this. http://jeans.about.com/od/Jeans101/a/How-To-Keep-Your-Jeans-From-Bleeding.htm
