Here are some of this season's current trends to watch out for.
Belted and Buckled: This year boots come with more belts, buckles and ties than ever before. Some softly wrap around calves and ankles tobe tied off with tight little knots. Others buckle at the mid or upper calf, once, twice and sometimes three times to add a bit of urban spice.
Lace-Up Boots: With rounded toe styling, this year's retro inspired "Mindy" boots feature eyelets and hooks and full lace-up entry. Not the easiest boot to slip your feet into or out of, they provide a bit of old-fashioned contrast styling to today's more edgy designs.
Winter Boots with Fluffy Collars: From shearling to fake, fur is chic, yet funky this season. Ankle boots, Mid Calf and even Full Knee High boots can all be found sporting a bit of the fluffy stuff in their collars this season. Hot colors this year are gun metal and red.
White Boots: Winter whites go well with chilly snowflakes and are bound to generate a buzz.. Cute and sassy, be sure to pick a pair with pointed toe and stiletto heels for that hot look on cold winter days.
Embellished Boots: Some of the year's hottest boots have interesting piping or short zippers in contrasting shades that have a retro feel but are anything but plain. Black is a popular col or of choice in this case and bootie styles abound, but there are definitely more options. Fashion forward and dynamite on city streets the look says you are dressed to thrill.
In the end, let your boots speak for you. Match them with a colorful pair of opaque tights and a winter dress and you will look sophisticated yet fun. Wear them with a pair of narrow trousers and e set for a day at the office.
Whichever style you choose, they are sure to be stunning and any of these top pics will make you wish it would snow year-round.
