Fashion Quiz: "Sandal" or "Cut-Out Bootie"?

With the cut-out trend totally taking over footwear, am I the only one who can't tell the difference between a sandal and a bootie anymore?

UPDATE:
The answer is "They're all sandals except for the grey Velvet Angels booties Keri Hilson wore in her video w/Kanye". Our buyer, Erica explains: "I think calling a cut-out boot a 'sandal' or 'boot' might just boil down to semantics and the designer's preference! Personally, I think that if the shoe covers more of the foot than it shows, it's a cut-out bootie... if the shoe covers less than it shows, it's a sandal. :-)" Makes sense. Thanks, Erica!!
