The 5 Types of Boots Every Woman Should Own

Erika — Mon, 26 Dec 2011 07:07:41 +0000

It’s been a couple of years since we officially started Boots4You. In those two years, we’ve written 400+ posts with over half of them published in 2011 alone.

We’ve featured so many different boot brands, spotted so many celebrities, and covered so many different boot styles. We’ve also observed plenty of boot trends, many of which came and went faster than you can say “fashion faux pas”.

Not all of them just whizzed past us though; there were some that proved their staying power and some that remained steadfast. Now that we have a comprehensive coverage of boots here on our blog, we can confidently point out the boots that stood out as classics, as timeless styles and as “here-to-stays” for us here on Boots4You.

Whatever the reigning trend may be, people always keep coming back to these boot styles on our blog. Clearly it’s because these are the boot styles that you’ll also keep coming back to if they were in your closet. You might as well present engagement rings to these boots because these are the ones that’ll stay with you forever, that’ll remain faithful and that’ll hold true.

Check ‘em out: here are the 5 boot styles that every woman should own:

1. The comfortable boot

Women define comfort differently and so it follows that the comfortable boot is different for each woman. It could be hiking boots for the outdoor gal, worn-in cowboy boots for the cowgirl, or ugg boots for, well, plenty of other women out there!

Why every woman should have a comfortable boot is pretty self-explanatory. This is also the boot that women should choose mainly for its comfort factor above everything else. No sacrificing just for the sake of fashion with this boot!

2. The ankle boot

Another boot every woman should own is an ankle boot. The ankle boot is the answer to when wearing tall boots is too much of a hassle or you just can’t be bothered with tucking your pants or jeans into your boots.

We’re loving the ankle boot even more now because wearing one is an easy way to adding some chicness to any outfit. Just check out Cameron Diaz at an Oscars party, Sienna Miller at a red carpet event, and Miranda Kerr on her way to a business meeting. Like these celebrities, choose an ankle boot depending on your lifestyle: a low square-heeled one for the working professionals or a platform bootie for those who can afford a bit more of a fashionable flair to their everyday wear.

3. The stiletto boot

The stiletto boot is a must-have because it’s the style that instantly adds a touch of elegance to an outfit while still keeping you warm and protected. We’re talking about the most popular style for the stiletto boot of course: something in a knee-high height with a tapered pointy toe.

But like with the other boot styles on this list, you can adjust this style according to your own preferences and personality. If it’s not elegance you’re aiming for, you can send whatever else message you want with a stiletto boot! Round toe, buckled, platform or thigh high — really, it’s your pick.

4. The flat boot

The flat boot you choose to be part of your wardrobe essentials should be able to pull all your looks together while still being comfortable. Not to be confused with the comfortable boot, the flat boot is what you wear out of the house after changing out of your comfortable boot!

You could be wearing a simple dress, cut-off shorts or an old pair of jeans but once you slip into your flat boots, you’d look instantly presentable, like you gave your outfit some effort and maybe even a little bit stylish.

We love a flat boot in leather and in a riding boot style. It’s a classic boot that’ll always be in fashion.

DV by Dolce Vita Zela boot, $85.13 to $169.99 (was $169.99) at Amazon

5. The showstopping boot

Last but not least, every woman should own a showstopping boot. It’s the Francesco Scognamiglio glittery and strappy thigh high boots for Jennifer Hudson, it’s the Giuseppe Zanotti diamante booties for Cassie Scerbo, and it’s the Alain Quilici Payson skate booties for Beyonce even though she just wore them on one of her regular working days!

This isn’t really a classic boot style but it’s one that women should own nevertheless.

What’s a showstopping boot for you? Something six inches high, something with an exquisite embroidery detail or something dripping in diamonds? For many, a showstopping boot could just be anything that has the Louboutin signature red sole!

5. Sorel Snow Angel bootie

This Snow Angel bootie completes our list simply because Sorel has always been our go-to boot brand for times when harsh weather conditions take turn for the worse. We love its easy slip-on low cut and fleece trim. Of course, we chose it in black because what other color is best for a “city slickin’ boot”?

Sorel Snow Angel bootie, $67.99 to $79.99 (was $95.00) + an extra 25% off

Vanessa Hudgens Spotted in Alaska in Australia Luxe Collective Nordic Angel Tall Boots

Erika — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 07:03:19 +0000

Our celebrity spot for today is actress Vanessa Hudgens who recently has been laying low from the paparazzi because she’s busy filming “The Frozen Ground” in Alaska. Thought she’d be the perfect feature for today since we here on Boots4You have also been away for a bit ourselves.

Of course, another major reason why we’re featuring Vanessa Hudgens for today is because of these really cute furry grey ugg boots she was recently spotted wearing:

Vanessa Hudgens heads back to her hotel after breakfasting with mom Gina and sister Stella at Snow City Cafe in Anchorage, Alaska on November 17, 2011

Vanessa Hudgens is wearing them a little too slouchy but they’re still really cute boots, aren’t they? It also looks like Vanessa has been opting to wear these boots a lot while she’s in Alaska because they’re starting to look really worn-in.

Very different from her BFF Ashley Tisdale who packed an extensive winter boot collection while she was filming “Hellcats” in Vancouver, Canada early this year!

Vanessa Hudgens’ warm-looking furry grey boots are these Australia Luxe Collective Nordic Angel boots:

Despite being expensively priced at $410.00, these boots are super popular and often sell out! You can find a few sizes of this grey color at Amazon and Endless. More colors and more sizes are available at Singer22 as well.

Time to Appreciate Some Jessica Simpson Boots with a Jessica Simpson Coupon Code!

Erika — Sat, 12 Nov 2011 07:04:25 +0000

Our sister site YourNextShoes often features shoes from Jessica Simpson. We can see that there are plenty of gorgeous Jessica Simspon pumps, sandals, platforms, peep toes, wedges and etc. at the website, but we also noticed that there are just as plenty and just as gorgeous Jessica Simpson BOOTS!

The boots clearly aren’t getting as much love as the other Jessica Simpson shoes such as the Casadei-like Pais, the on-trend 70s-inspired Tookies and the ever popular Danys. Maybe it’s because they’re not as colorful, not as hip, or maybe because Jessica Simpson herself is never really seen in them?

Whatever it is, we think it’s a real tragedy. Especially because the newly arrived Jessica Simpson boots look as amazing, as beautiful and as HOT as these:

1. Jessica Simpson Aura paneled knee high boot

Very armor-like, very fierce and very for the gladiator girl.

Jessica Simpson Aura strip-paneled platform knee high boot, $159.00

2. Jessica Simpson Bombai laced knee high boot

We like how these are a mix between a combat boot and a riding boot. They did a great job of combining those two popular boot styles which really could have NOT ended well at all!

Jessica Simpson Bombai laced back knee high boot, $189.00

3. Jessica Simpson Vanitiya leather riding boot

But if you’re more of the girl-next-door, Jessica Simpson has also got a classic leather riding boot for you.

Jessica Simpson Vanitiya buckled leather riding boot, $179.00

4. Jessica Simpson Francis gored bootie

There’s also something for the fashion-forward, such as these super stylish chelsea boot-inspired booties with sleek and smart architectural lines.

Jessica Simpson Francis gored bootie, $129.00

5. Jessica Simpson Keara ribbed knit cuff bootie

Love the extended leather and ribbed knit cuffs on this foldover bootie. And the conical stacked heel? Proportion perfection!

Jessica Simpson Keara ribbed knit cuff bootie, $139.00

The designers behind Jessica Simpson may play around more with the designs of the non-boot shoes but clean and classic boots never go out of style anyway. And you know what else will help you to appreciate these Jessica Simpson boots more? A nice Jessica Simpson discount coupon code that’ll save you a considerable amount on your purchase:

From now until November 18, 2011, the coupon code “FRIENDS” will get you 25% off any online purchase you make at Jessica Simpson Collection. In case you are reading this after November 18, you can still get $20 off your purchase of $100 or more with the code “JSCNOV“.

The second coupon code doesn’t expire until November 30, 2011 but wait ’til the Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend — we’ve definitely got something bigger and better in store for you then. Still, the 25% discount is nothing to snub — use it while it’s still valid!
