If what I have seen on the web and in stores is any indication, booties will be everywhere this fall and winter.

There are lots of variations on this trend, from the shearling lined versions to the rugged motor cycle booties and the stiletto heel varieties. The ones we will be looking at today are the true work horses of your shoe closet. These are your go to booties that you will slip on without even thinking because they simply go with everything and will easily carry you from late summer to early spring.
The black beauties that I am referring to are the flat to mid high, classic styled, enduring booties that will still find a place of honour in your closet after many many years.
Alexander Wang Kat leather booties
When shopping yesterday in Vancouver, I fell in love with a pair of rich, butter soft, 70's inspired boots that have a contrasting patent leather toe cap and a buckle strap closure on a low stacked heel. Meet Alexander Wang's Kat leather booties.
These are $540,- I have not, yet, found a European website that sells these in black.
However Net-A-Portersells them in a gorgeous espresso.

Sported by movie stars
Of course there is the Acne Pistol short boot. Sported by movie stars and many a fashion blogger. You will not be original in these boots but, you will walk in comfort and everyone will recognize your boots and realize you dug deep in your wallet to be able to wear these. New for this year, they are not all black but are nicely contrasted with a brown leather mid heel and sole as well as a brown zipper pull. These will set you back 379 Euro at farfetch.
Order fast
Jeffrey Campbell has a solution for those of us whose pocket books are not that deep. If you like these, I suggest you order them fast. This designer has his finger on the pulse and knows what is hot. His styles frequently sell out fast. At $195.00 it is a steal!

Helena Siebert uit Vancouver, Canada, is een myfavouriteshoes fan van het eerste uur. Niet alleen is zij een fan van John Fluevog schoenen, zij houdt van alle schoenen met een twist. Het leek haar leuk om schrijvend haar passie voor schoenen met ons te delen. Het kan haar lekker niks schelen dat haar man , zoals de meeste mannen, ook niet zo van wedges houdt. Ze koopt en draagt ze met plezier. Haar Nederlands is een beetje te roestig, dus schrijft zij in het Engels.
