I am loving lace up boots right now, in fact I’ve been in love with them for the past couple of months. I still need to buy a pair for myself, just not sure which ones I adore the most. This style of boot can be worn with almost anything and instantly gives your outfit some edge. Here are my top 5 favorites…

Jeffrey Campbell, $150 at Urban Outfitters

Forever21, $28.80

Repetto, on sale for $188 at Oak

Urban Outfitters, $88

Frye, on sale for $249.99 at Urban Outfitters

When it’s constantly cold and wet outside and your flats have been through some serious wear and tear - not to mention your feet - it’s time to pack away those cute spring/summer flats and invest in a sturdy pair of boots. A pair of boots that will keep your feet cozy and dry. A pair that will go well with almost any outfit. And most importantly, a pair that will last you the entire season. So with that in mind, I present you this week’s Too Hot Not to Cop item: the equestrian leather boot.

Once belonging only to girls that rode ponies, the equestrian leather boot has made its way onto city sidewalks as a sensible yet stylish staple in every fashionista’s shoes closet. The no-nonsense black leather and low, sturdy heel is not only a perfect match to your worn-in pair of jeans and fall jacket but also just as cute with a pair of tights and a ruffly dress. Without a doubt, the equestrian leather boot is the go-to shoe for most occasions, especially those on rainy days.

This particular equestrian leather boot comes out tops on my list because not only is it a smart-looking shoe, but it also comes with a rather smart price tag as well. At a sale price of only $99.99 (original $125) at Urban Outfitters, the leather is surprisingly buttery soft and the stitching is detailed and authentic. Reinforcements at both the toe and the heel keep this shoe from falling apart before March rolls along. So hurry over to UO before these boots sell out and you’re left out in the cold, looking ridiculous in a pair of white canvas flats.

What makes an outfit just right? Nowadays it’s all about what bag you’re carrying around, or what sunglasses you have on, but there’s still that one element that can make or break your outfit, and its shoes. With fall right around the corner, there are so many shoes to choose from. Here are a few that I’m lusting after…

I do like Marc Jacobs and his funky, fun, and fabulous footwear. Here’s a perfect example of why. Fresh, saucy colours (check out shoes in orange and yellow after the jump) and patent, always my favourite. Note the thicker heel on the shoes above, which admittedly, is more stable then those thin, delicate stilettos. Heel thickness, however, comes and goes. At least with stilettos, you know they’ll be back. However, I’m still loving these babies for summer.

These Valentino boots and shoes are inspired a century ago, but perfect for today. The button up tall boots are perfect for fall. I love the toe shape and the button details. After the jump, check out a peep toe ankle boot with laser cut detailing. Hot. Both made in Italy.
