Boots are a staple footwear and one item that generally we don't mind to spend a bit more than usual, because it is something that we wear through all the autumn and winter either with trousers or dresses or skirts. Try to keep a tab of how many times you wear your boots and you will be with me in thinking that you can invest a bit more money on them. I've seen many boots during my visits to Press launches and I've picked a few.
*In Store* It has an equestrian vibe the
Taro boots by
Dune. They are made of leather with an elasticated panel at the back and a nice metal buckle detail. This one is in burgundy colour but a black or tan version is also available.

*In Store* The style is like a Chelsea Boots in leather with elasticated panel at the side but the
Lilie Boots at
Hobbs are knee high, with a 6.5cm heel and round toe and they are made in Italy at Hobbs own shoe factory. Great with any dress or skirt or with denim for a countryside look.

*Not Yet* I find this pair of Boots by
Jones The Bootmaker absolutely gorgeous. They are made of suede with leather lining and insole in a beautiful navy colour and with a stretch panel at the back for a good fitting. Check for its arrival in store at

*In Store* Over the Knee boots are a big trend and I can understand that, given that they cover our knees keeping them warm when wearing a skirt or dress and you pair it with a pair of boots. It may seems a small thing but when you wear for the first time an over the knee pair of boots you won't go back wearing shorter ones. This
Volt boot is by
KG Kurt Geiger, made in leather with gold metal studs details.

*Not Yet* Among all these gorgeous boots a pair by
Manolo Blahnik could not be missed. This Khomobi suede dark green boot are not yet available but a grey version is or a black velvet option. The heel is 10 cm high with goat skin lining and they are made in Italy. If you like this colour check the website to know when they will land in store.

*Not Yet* When short of money or if you want to embrace a trend that you know it won't stay long head to
Peacocks where you can find all the trends seen on the catwalks, reinterpreted and at a fraction of the original price. This pair of slouchy patent
Vivienne boots are perfect for following a trend without breaking your bank account and also if you are caught in the rain you've got nothing to fear. A black version will be available also. Check when they will land in store at

*In Store* I am a great fan of
Russell & Bromley and this pair of
Battenburg boots are fantastic. They are made of leather and then they've got a trim of colourful faux fur that looks exactly like a Battenburg cake. A matching tote bag and cross body bag are also available.
