You also all know that it all started with this groundbreaking boot design from the Cobra Society Fall 2011 debut capsule collection:

Cobra Society Zeus wool and leather thigh high boots in black olive, $1,195.00

We’ve already covered the Steve Madden knockoffs of the lower versions of these Cobra Society boots and now, the thigh high versions have got their very own.

Check out this Caballero boot from Steve Madden’s “artisan” sub-label called Freebird by Steven, which undoubtedly copped the look of the Cobra Society Zeus boots down to the diamond pattern on the fabric-paneled shaft:

Freebird by Steven Caballero fabric and leather thigh high boots in black, $498.00

I almost always enjoy look-for-less versions of popular boot styles but I’m on the fence on this one. Alex Davis of Cobra Society has managed to develop a really unique and distinct design aesthetic for herself and I feel like it was just stolen from her through the knockoffs.

She’s also just an up-and-coming designer who had to do all the researching, manufacturing, down to sourcing the special handwoven Kilim rugs from the female rug artisans in Morroco’s Middle Atlas Mountains herself. Steve Madden didn’t even give her a chance with this one. And their knockoff version can’t even be considered inexpensive either.

Am I just overdramatizing this or do you also think that Steve Madden crossed a line with this one?

The Cobra Society Zeus thigh high boots are $1,195.00 at Net-A-Porter. You can find the Freebird by Steven Caballero thigh high boots for $498.00 at Free People.

Ashley Tisdale proves once more why she’s so deserving of that title by wearing these showstopping boots while out and about in Los Angeles last Friday:

Who better to write about on this special day than Boots4You‘s most featured celebrity, right?

Ashley Tisdale proves once more why she’s so deserving of that title by wearing these showstopping boots while out and about in Los Angeles last Friday:

Ashley Tisdale grabs breakfast with Vanessa Hudgens and then goes shopping at Planet Blue in Beverly Hills, California on December 23, 2011

Ashley Tisdale left all the talking to her boots and kept the rest of her outfit casual and simple. She paired it with a Chaser Pink Floyd Ummagumma t-shirt, American Eagle jeggings, grey ribbed thigh high socks and accessorized with an Urban Outfitters slouchy ribbed beanie, Chanel 5206 aviator sunglasses and her trusty Celine Boston bag.

When the pair of boots you have on look like this, it’s like you really have no choice but to let ‘em have the spotlight:

Ashley Tisdale’s spotlight-hogging boots are these Jeffrey Campbell Devandra boots:

Jeffrey Campbell Devandra open lace-up thigh high boots, $258.00

The suede on these look super soft but it’d be pain to have to adjust all those laces to accommodate the layers you might have to wear underneath. Good thing then there’s that zip-up entry along the inner shaft.

The Jeffrey Campbell Devandra open lace-up thigh high boots retail for $258.00. Shop for them at Free People!

Have a merry Christmas everyone!

Her red carpet arrival look is head-to-toe Francesco Scognamiglio Fall 2011, from the lace ruffles at her décolletage down to the glittery tips of her strappy thigh high boots:

Jennifer Hudson attends the VH1 Divas Celebrate Soul event held at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City on December 18, 2011

Now THOSE are a pair of show-stopping boots if we ever did see one. Very flashy and over-the-top, but also very appropriate for an event with the word “diva” in its title.

Here’s a closer look at Jennifer Hudson’s upstaging glittery strappy thigh high boots encrusted with crystals:

What do you think of Jennifer Hudson’s boots — HOT or NOT?

If you’re interested to see what else Francesco Scognamiglio has to offer, you can check out and shop a selection of the designer’s pieces at Luisa Via Roma. Luisa Via Roma is having an up to 70% off sale right now. Many of the Francesco Scognamiglio items are now at a 30% discount.

Vivienne Westwood also has these head-turning shiny silver boots with a contrasting gold heel:

Vivienne Westwood gold heel silver boots, $666.40 (was $952.00) at Farfetch

There’s also this crystal studded thigh high boot from the usually affordable Pleaser USA brand so its 500-dollar price tag is pretty surprising:

Pleaser Fascinate-3010 BS PCH crystal studded thigh high boots, $499.99 at Endless

Lastly, our look-for-less option comes from as we mentioned, the usually affordable Pleaser USA whom we can always trust to have something glittery, thigh high and high-heeled:

Pleaser Delight-3010G glitter thigh high boots, $34.48 to $233.45 at Amazon

I won’t be able to pull these off but I’m sure divas out there like Jennifer Hudson can and will!

Megan wore yet another ultra-casual, dressed down outfit which she yet again paired with a tomboyish yet high-heeled pair of boots. If you check out our post history on Megan Fox, you’ll see how big of a fan she is of this casual look + strong but sexy boots combination.

For yesterday’s shopping day, Megan opted to wear these gorgeous Christian Dior Intrigante harness thigh high platform boots with her layered grey tops and black leggings:

You might remember that we also previously spotted the purple version of these boots on Demi Lovato. Demi’s jeans stuffed into these boots made them all wrinkly around the ankle area so Megan’s slim leggings paired with these boots is so much more preferable.

Here’s the Christian Dior Intrigante boots in all their glory:

Christian Dior Intrigante suede and leather thigh high boots, $1,690.00 (Sold out)

Despite their high $1,690.00 price tag, these boots are now all sold out.

This square-heeled version of the Intrigante boots are still available and on sale at Bluefly though:

Christian Dior Intrigante square heel thigh high boots, $1,192.00 ($1,490.00) at Bluefly

And so is this lower cut bootie version:

Christian Dior Intrigante platform booties, $920.00 (was $1,150.00) at Bluefly

Both versions are available at Bluefly. For lower cost alternatives to the Christian Dior Intrigante booties, check out our sister site YourNextShoes‘ post on Olivia Palermo and her Dior Guetre platform booties.

Leighton Meester attended Derek Blasberg’s “Very Classy” book signing in Paris, France last Monday. She wore this breezy yet still dressy rolled tab sleeve white mini dress which she cinched at the waist with a cream belt:

Leighton Meester attends Derek Blasberg’s “Very Classy” book signing in Paris, France on October 3, 2011

Leighton accented her look with a cerulean blue Christian Dior Miss Dior clutch and these ultra luxurious-looking suede over the knee boots:

Love how these boots show just the right amount of thigh on Leighton. And the block heel perfectly balances out the height on this boot!

You can barely see it in the pictures above but the side square buckle identifies Leighton Meester’s boots as these ones from Roger Vivier:

Roger Vivier Cuissarde Peppy boots

These Roger Vivier boots are a staggering $2,525.00. No exotic skins or gemstones — these are just suede boots!

With a price tag that high, it’s very easy to get Leighton Meester’s look for much, much less. Start with these white and cream dresses with loose sleeves:

James & Joy loose sleeve scoop neck dress, $58.00 at eDressMe; Heed wrap front dress, $118.00 at Nordstrom

Cinch them at the waist with these white and cream skinny belts:

Nixon Rival Beauty skinny belt, $16.17 at Amazon; Fossil multi-ring keeper belt, $28.00 at Amazon

And then finish off your look with any of these 3 brown suede OTK or thigh high boots which are all priced under $200:

DV by Dolce Vita Nathaniel boot, $87.97 (was $159.95) at Endless; Kelsi Dagger Briallen1 boot, $120.97 to $124.15 at Endless; Indigo by Clarks Barbara Jay boot, $190.00 at Zappos

Even if you added up ALL of the items here, they’d still cost much less than the Roger Vivier boots!

Pair this look with tights, a scarf and a brightly colored long coat to make it fall/winter appropriate!

Kourtney is always dressed to the nines for her different publicity ops, press duties and media appearances, but lately she seems to be favoring these ruffle-topped over-the-knee boots to pair with majority of her day-to-day outfits:

Kourtney is always dressed to the nines for her different publicity ops, press duties and media appearances, but lately she seems to be favoring these ruffle-topped over-the-knee boots to pair with majority of her day-to-day outfits:

Kourtney Kardashian arrives at her hotel in NYC on September 15, 2011; Goes to lunch at Bar Pitti in NYC’s Greenwich Village on September 20, 2011; Arrives at the Children’s Museum of Manhattan in NYC on September 22, 2011

Well, you can’t really blame Kourtney — the boots do add both a touch of class and quirkiness to her ensembles. That comes from the boot’s evidently impeccable craftsmanship and quality, and also from its interesting combination of contrasting biker and feminine styles.

Kourtney Kardashian’s current favorite boots are these Valentino ruffle top tall motorcycle boots:

Trust Valentino to add a touch of femininity to everything. Even a typically rough and tough biker boot can’t escape!

The Valentino ruffle top tall motorcycle boots retail for $1,395.00. They are available at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman.

For look-for-less options, here are 5 over-the-knee and thigh high boots with the same ruffle top detail. All of these are about $200 and under, and prices start at just $63.99! :

Trying out something a bit different from her usual bohemian chic style, Vanessa was seen in this more rock-inspired outfit consisting of messy short hair, a black and white graphic tee, high-waisted denim cut offs and a rockin’ pair of buckled-up-to-there brown over-the-knee boots:

Trying out something a bit different from her usual bohemian chic style, Vanessa was seen in this more rock-inspired outfit consisting of messy short hair, a black and white graphic tee, high-waisted denim cut offs and a rockin’ pair of buckled-up-to-there brown over-the-knee boots:

Vanessa Hudgens fills up at a gas station in Los Angeles, California on September 22, 2011

The boots are what clearly gives Vanessa Hudgens’ outfit a rock n’ roll edge. Just try to imagine this paired with simple sandals or with suede ankle boots (ala Kate Bosworth or Rachel Bilson).

Even Vanessa’s other favorite over-the-knee boots would fail to give this outfit that rock vibe, so these new OTK boots of hers are in a whole new different league of their own:

It’d be a thrill to see how Vanessa Hudgens will wear these boots with Fall 2011′s trends!

Vanessa Hudgens’ boots are these ones from Area Forte:

Area Forte 4014 over-the-knee boots in cuoio

These $535.95 boots have now been marked down to $294.77 at Endless.

It also comes in black suede and brown suede; Amazon has those colors for as low as $214.38.

Do check out the rest of the Area Forte shoe collection at Endless; plenty of women’s and men’s styles are currently on sale!
