Boots

Two major trends that have resurfaced in this season's boots are Uggs and combat boots. While they  can both be cute and comfy, it is just as easy to wear them badly. Uggs can end up looking like potatoes on the feet and combat boots can look cheap if overly bedazzled. But I'm here to help you pick a nice pair that will be wearable into the winter and more years to come.


Basic Black Combat:

These boots are really simple and elegant. No fussy details make them easy to match and give them a nice vintage feel. These are from Target.

















Knee Highs

For when it gets cold and when you want to make a statement these boots are great. They are from F21 and are absolutely gorgeous.
















Green:

A beautiful olive suede pair. No lacing needed - it has a zipper.

















Brown:

From GoJane; $40.


















Uggs:

Last season's Ugg Kensington in Olive. The combat boot with fur.












Zip Ups:

Back zip boots in sand color. I love the smooth silhouette and simple design.















Riding Boots:

Enjoy the warmth and fluffiness in a riding boot style.

















Just don't.

These saggy uggs ruined a nice outfit that could have been pulled off with a pair of sandals.


If its warm enough to be wearing a short dress, your feet will not freeze.


Uggs unnecessary + ugly.

Gross.

Do we really need to make ugly awkward hybrids?

Dr. Marten's have this weird round toe that makes your feet look clownish. The red shiny plastic just makes these look cheap and ridiculous, especially since they run above $100.

I hate Docs.

A recycled pair should cost less, not more.
















Style Tips: One of my pet peeves is when people mismatch clothes temperature wise. If its warm enough for shorts or skirts, don't wear boots because it ends up looking silly. And if its cold enough for boots, you need to cover your bum and wear real pants, not leggings!

They go best with jeans tucked in or long pants.
