It took a minute for things to cool down a bit, but now we’re way past floaty summer trends and fully focused on what’s coming for winter, I could not be happier.
Trench coats (my kryptonite), classic denim, and cozy knits are making their way back into rotation, and I’m already mapping out my cooler-weather wardrobe to rival even the most fashion-forward celebs.
While my trusty capsule pieces will keep carrying me through the season, the real MVP of transitional dressing? A killer pair of shoes. And by shoes, I mean BOOTS!
I’m aware that trends for our feet switch up almost as fast as the weather, but no matter what’s trending on the runway, I’m all about styles that are actually wearable in real life.
That’s why you can’t go wrong with a statement pair of good quality boots. They can elevate a simple outfit with a heel or coloured leather, or something like an over-the-knee style can be the focal point of your entire autumn look.
To save you time on scrolling or schlepping through the sales at the malls, we’ve narrowed down the best frontliners in feet – celebrities! – to inspire your new season purchases.
