Winter season here at Hofstra means drudging through puddles and snow to get to class—not exactly a ‘Winter Wonderland’. But as the weather changes, make sure you keep your feet warm and chic in this season’s best boots.

When I think about winter attire, one of the first things that come to mind is Uggs. Every girl can agree there’s really no feeling like putting on a warm and comfortable pair of Uggs before bracing the snowy weather. This season, Ugg has put a chic and stylish twist to their usual suede and sheepskin boot. This Dandylion boot is guaranteed to keep your feet warm while also making you look sexy and fashionable with it’s nearly 3 inch leather heel. This boot would work with tights and a sweater dress or with jeans and a flannel.

While winter isn’t always the rainiest season, it’s still essential to have a great pair of rain boots to wear on all those days when you have to trek through mushy snow on your way to class. These bright military red Burberry rain boots are a great choice because their fun color and height that compliments the classic Burberry pattern.

For those of us who don’t want to spend a fortune on a pair of leather boots this winter, these Merona boots are the perfect alternative. The knee-high length and flat heel make this boot perfect for your everyday attire. These boots are also guaranteed to match with anything because of the mix of black and chestnut brown. These boots have a classic equestrian look to them, making them the quintessential go-to shoe for the east coast in the winter.

These Ugg Cold Weather Ciera boots are for those days when comfort and warmth is the only thing on your mind when getting dressed. These boots are essentially the classic chestnut Ugg boot with just enough detail to make them stylish while still being casual.

These little Mossimo taupe booties are essential for any fall/ winter wardrobe and would be perfect with thigh high socks, leggings, or jeans. The heel is just high enough to give you a little extra height for class or a movie with your crush.

Lastly,  Betsey John adds some spice to the classic high-heeled black boot. These thigh high suede boots are unique with their faux button closure and sexy enough to make the simplest outfit perfect for a night out. These boots are the go-to going out winter shoe because they’ll keep you warm while looking hot.
