Just because
the weather is cooling down, doesn’t mean your wardrobe has to also. In fact,
it’s time to start heating things up with Autumn's hottest shoes.
My favorite
fashion pleasure during this time of year, are boots. You can’t go wrong with
them no matter what part of the world you live in.
For an
all-purpose boot this season, I suggest a flat riding boot like my favorite- 'The
Montage' boot by Bamboo. Pair these with leggings or skinny jeans for a relaxed
every day look.
(*Boot is available from different retailers including online.
Prices will vary.)
And who could
forget everyone’s favorite…Ugg Boots by Ugg
Australia? It seems like every year I’m getting a new pair because I simply
can’t get enough of these adorable trendy things. Uggs are perfect for hanging
around the house, going to school, and just about everything in between. They
keep you comfortable and warm, which are two things I’m sure we all want to be
during this time of year.
(*Styles and prices vary. Available through most
retailers.)
Do you need a
dressy shoe but it’s just too cold or wet outside for a heel? The next best
option, are the stylish and sophisticated flat. I can’t even begin to tell you
how many pairs of these I own. Flats are perfect this season because they can
be both formal and casual while at the same time practical. For a put together
look, add a pair of flats with slacks and a cardigan. Think class presentation.
For a more casual look, try flats with rolled up denim and an oversized
sweater. Think an afternoon at the mall. I adore my Tory Burch ‘Caroline’ flats
in Nude.
($225, Nordstrom.)
Now this next
category is solely dependent on how rainy your part of the world gets. For
outdoor fall activities like Trick-or-Treating or visiting the pumpkin patch,
you might want a shoe that can take a beating. For these needs, I suggest
owning a pair of rain boots/galoshes and/or a pair of comfortable tennis shoes
for all that walking you’ll be doing outdoors. Since these guys might get a bit
dirty I won’t recommend anything super pricey. Also keep in mind that comfort
is just as important. So I leave this one up to you- find something you like
and wear the heck out of them, if necessary.
Are you as
excited about those options as I am? I sure hope so! And in the words made
famous by Nancy Sinatra, or rather Jessica Simpson, as this generation is more
familiar with- “Are you ready boots? Start walkin!”
