It’s Almost Fall, So Here Are The Trending Boots I’ll Be Adding to Cart Before The Season Starts

Okay, I guess it’s time to trade my slides and mules for boots since fall is starting pretty soon. How crazy is that? Summer sure did fly, but that’s what happens when you’re living your best life! As I get ready for my favorite season, I’m already on the search for trendy boots to serve looks with. 

Boots are an investment, like, seriously. I love a good deal on a cute pair, but sometimes I just have to spend a little bit more to get the best of the best. I know how hard it can be to make a decision when you’re picking out THE pair of boots. But hey, let me show you some pairs that you might want to get your hands on this season.

A Spice Girl Essential

Wait, is it 1999 or 2019? I mean, the Spice Girls have partially reunited (miss you, Posh spice!). Naked Wolfe, a luxury designer footwear based in London, is remastering the iconic 90s platform shoe trend. I’ve fallen head over heels with how cool its selection of chunky boot sneakers! If you want just a simple pair, the Wicked White is your best bet. And, get this: this style’s also available in a vegan option. To anyone’s more into an edgy look, the Sain White comes with chain links. How cool, right?

Metallic Geometry

My friends, I know how much we adore the classic black pair of Docs, but let me introduce you to my newest favorite style! Anything pink is my weakness — and I’ll be rocking the color this fall. The Pascal Iridescent is a modern and bolder take that combines metallic and geometric print.

Bright & Yeehaw

The yeehaw agenda lives on! TBH, I thought I would never wear cowboy boots, but I’ve found my new partner. These red ankle boots are HAWT! The color makes the pair such a standout. Whenever I want to make a statement, red is always my go-to color.

From Pure to Holey

Oh, yes! These boots are perforated, like, literally little holes. Jeffrey Campbell introduced this breathable pair of knee-high boots this summer, which was only fitting, but it’s definitely making my list of shoes to get for fall. So fashion-forward, right? After all, fall is all about going forward!

The Only Way to Slouch

I remember whenever my mom would tell me to stop slouching. It’s not like anyone ever said don’t slouch your boots, right? Slouch boots have been trending since last fall, but it looks like they won’t be going anywhere for this season.

As much as we want to hold onto the summertime shoe trends, we’re honestly pretty ready to trade in our strappy sandals for some statement-making boots. While you still have time, try collecting a few pairs you’re going to want to slay this fall.
