We looked at four of Fairfield County’s favorite designers for a roundup of the best boots to start the season in. Get ready to add to your fall shopping wish list:
Stuart Weitzman
This world-famous shoe designer has a local’s sensibility of what women in our area want. Sophisticated and polished for suburbia but with a dash of Manhattan edginess thrown in. It’s the perfect combo for us Fairfield County ladies.
Our favorite: The Casual Ankle Boot
Form meets function in this tan nubuc leather ankle boat with a flirty tassel. It’s equal parts Connecticut prep and New York sophisticate. We also love that this style is called Prancing, as that’s exactly what we feel like doing when we see it.
Michael Kors
Everyone’s favorite jet-setting designer may no longer be cracking us up on Project Runway, but as long as he keeps making fabulous boots we’re happy.
Our favorite: The Quilted Knee Boot
Boots that reach the knee continue to be a wardrobe staple. If you’re looking for a twist on the tall black boot for this season go for this pair with a quilted texture. It may even replace your Chanel purse as your new favorite accessory.
Ralph Lauren
Ralph Lauren knows preppy America, and he just keeps improving on the classics. If want to invest in a boot with timeless appeal, you probably already know to head over to your nearest Ralph Lauren store.
Our favorite: The Riding Boot
The Riding Boot is the ultimate shoe for the season. It just goes perfectly with crisp air, falling leaves and a pumpkin spice latte. This luxe version, complete with equestrian-inspired hardware is our favorite for fall.
Tory Burch
It’s safe to say that most Fairfield County ladies hold girl crushes for Tory Burch. But even though we may idolize her lifestyle, we really love her because she designs such wearable and fun clothes and accessories. Tory Burch just gets it.
Our favorite: The Statement Shoe
You have a statement necklace but do you have statement heels? If you don’t, you’re going to want to now. Worthy of a fashion runway, they’ll make you feel like a supermodel for date night at your favorite local restaurant.
With styles like these, even sun worshipers will look forward to switching out their sandals for boots.
