From reimagined western styles to luxurious snakeskin textures, think bold this year when slipping your feet into fall. But, if you’re not quite ready for a metallic move or a colorful platform just yet, take a look at classic Chelsea’s or timeless combats for comfortable kicks that you can wear all year long. When hunting for the perfect boot, make sure they’re versatile enough to grab your favorite fall-flavored latte, and then turn around them for
an upscale event.
Wild West
Western boots are not just an essential you need in your wardrobe, but they’re also the most playful shoe of the season. Don’t fret, though — you don’t have to pull out rhinestone jeans and a plaid blouse to make this look work. Think off-duty model attire, like relaxed jeans and a comfortable tee or a flowy mini dress.

Platform Power
Once again, platform shoes walked the runways
