BEST OF: FALL AND WINTER BOOTS

It’s officially the season for boots. A no brainer with a pair of jeans and just as easy with a dress – I love the versatility of a great pair of boots this time of year. I’ve been wearing the two black pairs in row 2 (lug sole and patent pointy toe) for several years now and I just got the middle pair in the top row and am SO excited to break them out.

While some of these are a bigger investment – I really believe in putting a bit of money into a great pair of boots or two that you know you’ll wear constantly and will hold up for years to come. I own about half of the pairs shown here and can personally vouch for the quality and comfort – and the others are all from brands that I really trust and love.

BEST OF: FALL BOOTS, HEELS AND FLATS

The Steele Maiden: Must Have Fall Boots, Heels and Flats

Is it just me or are Fall shoes the absolute best? Rich suede boots, fun little flats and the most decadent heels – I’ll take them all over sandals any day. As we speak I’m trying desperately to cram every last pair in my suitcase (did I mention Adam and I are headed off on a big trip Thursday night? Be sure you’re following on Instagram to see where we land!), but since I can’t take them all.. I figured I’d leave you with all of these to swoon over.

BOOTS & BOOTIES

From patent ankle booties to suede sock boots to slouchy knee high versions, Fall begs for a new pair of boots. Stick to versatile neutral shades and look for special details like wood heels or a touch of shearling.

SNEAKERS & FLATS

Embellished, plaid flannel, leopard print – sneakers & flats are more fun than ever this fall. Use them as an exclamation point on an otherwise casual outfit.

HIS AND HERS FALL STYLE WITH CAT FOOTWEAR

His and hers Fall boot style with Cat Footwear

I’ve got a special guest with me for today’s post (out from behind the camera for a change) to talk his and hers Fall boot style with Cat Footwear. While I like to think know a thing or two about a good pair of boots, Adam puts shoes through the real ringer so if they’re tough enough to stand up to his wear and still stylish enough to get my stamp of approval.. well it’s a win, win.

NYFW DAY 3: SUEDE OTK BOOTS

NYFW Street Style - OTK boots and vest dress

We’re in the home stretch of Fashion Week (it passed in it’s usual blur) and my schedule is starting to slow down. Which means I have time to look through all of the things that came down the runway and make sense of them in terms of next Spring’s trends (spoiler alert: Seventies style isn’t going anywhere). In the meantime, I wore this look on Saturday for a presentation at Pier 59 Studios. Let’s take a moment to talk about these bootsContinue reading “NYFW DAY 3: SUEDE OTK BOOTS”
