I already have my eye on plenty of fall boot trends including everything from sleek knee-highs to platform styles to ski-inspired moon boots. Each of them had a heavy presence on the F/W 21 runways and expect to see the trends take off in the coming months. Another trend that has made an impression on me recently, though: kitten heel boots. While they didn’t dominate the runways like some of the other styles bubbling up for fall, retailers are investing heavily in the comfy style and that makes me think they’ll be an important silhouette to wear in the coming season.
If I think about it, they just make sense to wear right now. Comfortable silhouettes have dominated the last couple of years but as people are starting to get dressed up again, a slight heel feels just right. I know I’m still easing my way back into heels. While a stiletto feels a little too ambitious, kitten heels are exactly what I want to slip into. The boot versions are sleek, polished, and cool, and I personally can’t wait to add them to my outfits this fall.
