You'll have these pairs for life. High Heels Boots For Ladies
Just like you can never own too many white tees, you can never own enough boots. While you lean towards Chelsea boots (opens in new tab) , waterproof boots (opens in new tab) , or a shiny new designer ankle boot, there's probably at least one must-own type of boot you don't already have in your rotation.
We spoke with LA-based wardrobe stylist and fashion consultant Sarah Nearis (opens in new tab) about the types of boots every women should invest in and keep on rotation. Keep scrolling for a concise, digestible list of the boot types to try out (no peer pressure here)—or you can take the plunge and buy our favorites from the boots brands we love, below.
Stylist Sarah Nearis defines an ankle boot as "a boot that covers the whole foot and cuts off at the ankle or a little above." This style is a great option for the fall and spring when the weather is just beginning to cool down but may not be cool enough to warrant knee or thigh-high boots. I especially like wearing these with a pair of flared jeans―particularly when the boots have a bit of a heel.
Nearis defines knee-highs as "boots that go to the knee or right below." This style might be my personal favorite, particularly when the weather gets cold and they add a much-needed extra layer of warmth. Aside from their functionality, knee-high boots can also make an outfit effortlessly chic.
