So many boots, so little time.
Which New Fall Boot Trend Are You?
Lauren is a marketing professional, writer, and the founder of The Eye & The Edit, a weekly style and shopping newsletter. She recently found a home in New York City, where she enjoys endless people-watching and outfit inspiration. There, she can usually be found shopping in Soho, digging through vintage stores in Brooklyn, or trying a new coffee shop or natural wine bar.
It's the season of change, which means switching up your fall boots is also in order. Fall, after all, is when your booties are on full display — when they can still be paired with shorter hemlines, aren't yet shrouded by winter layers, and don't quite need to be equipped to deal with any weather, rain or shine. They're also a comfier alternative to a lot of the other shoes that are on the market. All that's to say: It's time to have some fun with your boots, by way of these six irresistible fall shoe trends. There's one for every style.
