Sure, fall is great for lattés, perfect weather and pumpkin-flavored everything, but we all know the best part of the season is having an impeccable fall wardrobe. And what better quintessential item for fall fashion is there than boots? This year, there are so many choices of types of boots, there’s no excuse not to find a pair to match your style.

Riding Boots:

These are the perfect everyday shoes for fall to wear with your favorite pair of skinny jeans or leggings. The BDG Suede Riding Boot from Urban Outfitters comes in five different colors. These boots come at the affordable price of $79, so there’s no reason not to own a pair (or two).

Litas:

Jeffrey Campbell never fails to disappoint with his funky and unique designs. Fashionistas aren’t strangers to his Lita boots, which have taken over fashion blogs for the past year. With a heel more than five inches tall, these are the perfect boots for going out, especially for shorter girls. Don’t be discouraged by their height, the two inch platform makes them surprisingly comfortable (I’m a proud owner of two pairs myself). Nasty Gal offers a wide array of different styles of the Lita to match all different personalities.

Western-Inspired:

With Mizzou in its inaugural year in the SEC, collegiettes have been adding a southern flare to their game-day attire. This trend can be carried on in an everyday wardrobe with these ankle booties from Aldo. The short heel adds a little bit of boost to your height without taking away the ability to wear them for a night out or to class. 

Combat Boots:

Combat boots made their way onto the fashion stage a few fall seasons ago, but they have continued to have a starring role. Steve Madden has altered the typical black, lace-up booties by adding studs and fabrics to his style. The Taco by Steve Madden has both the toughness of a traditional combat boot and the embellished flair. The Mexican blanket-inspired fabric covering the Taco’s front gives the shoe a splash of playfulness and its studs keep the boot from getting too girly.
