How to Style Sock Booties (Sustainable brand Vivaia Shoes Review)

Vivaia is a brand that reached out to me about trying their sustainably made shoes. After researching them & finding out more about their company, I decided to give them a try! All views are my own and the shoes were gifted to me by Vivaia.

If you prefer video content, check out my fun reel HERE!

The number one great thing I was excited to learn about Vivaia is that their shoes are made with recycled plastic water bottles & ethically sourced wool (even the packaging that they send the shoes in is 100% recycled materials!). I was SO impressed with that fact, & even more so when I received the shoes & they were incredibly comfortable! A good portion of their shoes are even made to be machine washable which is also so convenient (unfortunately this pair is not because of the heel).

I chose the Zoe wool round-toe boots in my regular size (you just use their size chart to convert your US size to your EU size) and the color tan russet. It’s a beautiful brownish grey & it’s the perfect color that goes with just about anything (this pair is on sale right now for $83 and my code ma18 can get you an extra 18% off!).

Viviaia has a ton of shoe options on their site– boots, mules, loafers, flats, heels, sneakers, etc, and they also carry men’s shoes. Vivaia is considered a competitor of Rothys’ shoes, which I can’t speak to or review because I don’t own a pair, but they both are made for comfort & out of recycled materials. If you are interested in trying a pair of sustainably made shoes, Vivaia’s shoes start around $99, which is more affordable than Rothys are. They also seem to have more style options than Rothys.

All in all, I would definitely recommend Vivaia shoes to anyone looking for style, comfort, & sustainability. I’m looking forward to contining to wear and style my Zoe sock boots and to continue to support this brand!

I have styled these extremely versatile boots 3 different ways below. Most of my outfits are older pieces, but I will link similar options to what I’m wearing if you want to try to recreate look. I use affiliate links which means I earn a small commission if you purchase anything using my link, and it will be no additional cost to you. Thanks for your support! 🙂

Look number 1: A mockneck, cardigan & straight leg jeans.
This look is casual & comfy. I LOVE that these sock boots tuck perfectly into straight leg jeans. Makes them look so chic.

Look number 2: A mini boho dress.
The color of these boots pairs perfectly with black & I love that the taller shaft adds interest to an otherwise simple dress look.

Look number 3: A flowy top & skinny jeans.
The shaft of these boots is tight enough that they pair so well with skinny jeans too! Love that! Dress it up with a flowy blouse & you’ve got yourself a cute night out look.

3 Ways to Wear a Fuzzy Button Front Cardigan

I picked up this cardigan at Target & it is SO soft. It’s got this really cozy fabric that is MADE for cold weather.
It comes in two other colors, but this one is perfectly neutral & I love it. To be honest, I wasn’t really paying attention when I ordered it & didn’t realize the cardigan had a collar. It is really cute though & adds some interest to the sweater.

I styled it 3 ways, but it’s definitely a fun neutral that can be worn a bunch of ways for the fall/winter season.

As always, everything will be linked via Liketoknow.it at the bottom of the post. If you shop using these affiliate links I make a small commission that allows me to keep styling & doing what I enjoy. Thanks! 🙂

I paired the cardigan with my wide brim hat for all these outfits. In this outfit, I’m also wearing my new favorite pair of straight leg jeans from target (SO comfy, nice high waist, & stretchy–so not uncomfortable at all!) & my sock booties. My sock booties are old but I linked two similar pairs below. I really love sock booties because the tight ankle makes them super versatile & able to go with everything (straight legs, skirts, dresses, wide leg pants, skinnies)!

In this outfit, I’m wearing one of my favorite skirts that I like to pull out in the cooler months. It’s a silkier material so it works well for this season (It is also older, but there are a a couple very, very similar ones I linked below. There’s also A TON of color options). I love this look because it’s dressed up but still really comfortable.

I’m pretty sure every styling session this winter will feature my black skinny jeans. I’ve had these for 2 years now & I feel like I’m JUST realizing what a staple they are. They dress up a look so much more than blue jeans but are the same comfort level– win-win! Again, these ones are older but I linked some great options!

Which look is your favorite? Would you wear any of them? Let me know on instagram or in the comments below!
