With the up and down summer we’ve had with more cool days upon us, it’s clear that boot season is close. And lucky for us, high-street stores haven’t held back in offering up their best boots just in time for the the seasonal changes.
When it comes to our autumn capsule pieces, alongside our trench coats and knitwear are reliable boots that we’ll wear from now through to spring. As much as we enjoyed sandal weather and will continue to wear our Birkenstocks around the house (and probably when popping to the shops), the move to autumn days calls for trusty boots, in whatever form you prefer.
Classic flat boots will forever be a wardrobe staple, but other occasions allow for more freedom when it comes to footwear. For evenings, a heeled pair will elevate outfits easily, whilst damper days may require chunky soles. As always, our favourite high-street stores have classic styles along with the newest trending designs that the fashion crowd is already embracing. If you’ve ever considered investing in a pair of cowboy boots, the fashion crowd at Copenhagen Fashion Week has assured us that these are this season’s must-have style, whilst knee-high boots are still as relevant as ever, be they flat-soled or heeled.
Better still than finding a great pair of boots that you’ll wear forever is finding them on the high street. H&M’s embroidered cowboy boots are a real gem that many of our editors have on their wish lists along with heeled leather boots that can be worn comfortably all day thanks to the chunky heel. Arket’s standout style is an over-the-knee pair, along with classic styles for timeless looks. Mango’s lace-up pair will go with everything from floaty dresses to simple legging looks, and there are plenty of tan boots if you’re stocked up on classic black. Leather fabrics, whether patent or suede, will allow for longevity, ensuring that you can invest in your favourite pair now and rewear them for years to come.
If you’re looking for a great pair of boots, here are pairs we’re willing to bet will sell out first at H&M, Arket and Mango.
