My current default shoe is a black ankle bootie. It works with just about everything and it's all day- (or night) long comfortable. The cut-out lace and scallop detailing got me hooked on this pair. And, of course, the giddily affordable price tag. I'd wear them with*...

1. Derek Lam dress,

2. Joseph shearling coat, 

3. 3.1 Phillip Lim clutch,

4. Modcloth bootie,

* Can you tell I'm thinking about what to wear to New York Fashion Week?
