Alexa, play “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” by Nancy Sinatra! Because you are ready to strut your way into fall as the most stylish on your block.
Another autumn season rolls around and it’s time to break out your fall boots. Suede and knee-high boots are super hot this year and lucky for me, I have both in my closet already! Here are my tried and true boots that have stood the test of time and are incredibly comfortable to stand in all day.
UGG – Women’s Classic Short II
Starting off with the most basic boots, this style has been in my closet since my first pair I got for Christmas in middle school. I have had every style from the Cardy Cable Knit (millennials will know this boot) to the Ultra Classic Mini Platform. In the dozens of Uggs I’ve worn, this style has stayed consistently in my wardrobe. It is perfect for walking your dog, in the snowy mountains, or on the way to your pilates class. It keeps your foot warm, in turn keeping your whole body warm! Make sure to protect your boot before wearing it outside for the first time so it stays pristine throughout the fall and winter.
Matisse – Caty Ankle Boot
These boots are one of Matisse’s best sellers for a reason. I discovered this brand when I was scrolling through the Free People website. I bought a black pair when they were on sale a couple of years ago and they are still the ONLY boot I wear to the bars. I have stood for 8 hours + in these boots, spilled every drink possible, and kicked them around without a single scuff. Truly an indestructible yet comfortable pair of boots. They come in a variety of styles: black, suede, croc, snakeskin, and more.
Gentle Souls by Kenneth Cole – Emily Zip Mid Heel Boots
Beautiful and rich chocolatey brown. These boots are a staple to add to your fall wardrobe, especially with brown trending heavy this year. “Gentle Souls” is Kenneth Cole’s signature comfort technology where the soles of the shoes have extra cushion and shock absorption. The suede material is soft and flexible and has a leather lining so that the inside stays dry and not too hot. It comes in a variety of colors and in a longer length.
Hunter – Original Tall Rain Boots
My mother gave me her Hunter boots when I was in high school, and I still wear them whenever it rains. Another truly indestructible boot. These boots are undergoing a revival and becoming incredibly trendy. Hailey Bieber was spotted wearing a pair of red high rainboots from this brand in her maternity shoot.
I personally like the tall boots style the most because it elongates my legs and I can wear them with a cute skirt or long pants. I have my eyes on the green boots… Maybe I will get a second pair! Hunter has been around for a long time and you can find them at discount on TRR or depop!
Loro Piana – Kilda Boots
These boots are the most expensive shoes I own by far. I absolutely love them. They are sporty, comfortable, and high quality. The length of the boot elongates your leg and gives you an equestrian look. I have worn these on vacations in Europe where I have had to walk around all day and have had no pain. They just released a fur lined version if you live in a colder climate. Tip: I got mine stretched out at the toe box because I have wider feet and it made the boots perfect for me!
Stuart Weitzman – Lowland Suede Over-the-Knee Boots
Stuart Weitzman over-the-knee boots were the IT-item during the 2010s. We didn’t have Tik Tok and influencer culture like we do now, but these boots transcended that gap in communication. As always, the trend cycle comes back around and the over-the-knee boots are projected to do well this year. Even Sophia Richie has been spotted wearing them out! I have had these boots stashed in my closet for years and cannot wait to wear them out again! These boots come in a multitude of styles: leather, suede, and a combination of the two. The 5050 boot is their best seller but I personally favor an all suede or all leather look.
These are my favorite fall boots that I will rewear this season and I hope I have influenced you to look into your closet and see what you have hiding back there or to maybe an investment in one of these to wear for years to come!
Thanks for reading!
XX,
Isabelle
