Boots boots boots

I am looking for a pair of ankle boots this fall and I've narrowed it down to four. Go me...


Bandolino Garris Bootie
$89.95 in Taupe on DSW

I found these and couldn't stop thinking about them. I've never done a hidden wedge before but I didn't even notice it was there until I read it in the description. I love the nude, I could see it popping against dark skinny jean or jewel tone tights. I love the zipper detail as well. The whole shoe is very fresh.


N.Y.L.A. Kisa Bootie
$119.95 in Olive/Cognac on DSW

I am not very into the high-fashion hiking boot but this boot does it so well. I love that the sole has traction and I think the blend of textures is just so pleasing to look at. It's a little less versatile than the Bandolino boot


Minnetonka Back Zip Ankle Boot
$50.95 in Brown on Nordstrom

I've had my eye on these for a long time. I live in my Kilty mocs and they last for freakin' ever. The price is great of course, although I can't decide if I would want them in brown or in black. I have been trying to gravitate away from black shoes because I have a lot but most of my boots are NOT black and for a shoe that is so eclectic having it in a versatile black might be nice. They're also flat which means I'm more likely to throw them on. the black-of-the-ankle zipper appeals to me as well.


Minnetonka Women's Double Fringe Bootie
$54.95 in Black on DSW

Similar to the above but with the nubby sole I'm used to in the moccasins and with a few tweaked details. Basically, by introducing this shoe it just muddles my brain. Both the Minnetonka booties are extremely affordable and durable and function with many, many outfits. Flat booties or wedges... hmmm.
