TOP 5 WINTER BOOTS
By Ayis Stephen-Diver, 19 October 2023
Wanna know our fave cold-weather shoe? If you’ve peeped the title, you’ve already got the 411! Srsly, there’s a boot for every vibe 👢 Rainy day at the office? Throw on a classic block heel. Hitting the club? Reach for those knee-highs. Quick corner-shop run? A snug faux-fur pair to keep you cosy ❄️ We could chat your ear off about boots, but we’d rather let our picks from ASOS DESIGN, Topshop and more do the talking. So let’s kick it!
1. WESTERN BOOTS
Topshop Lara leather western-style ankle boots, £69
We couldn't do a boots edit without the icon herself: the western 🐎 It's got all the care-free, happy-go-lucky NRG – plus, red is THE colour of the season. Spin them with some double-denim – a jacket and slim-fit jeans – and you'll be nailing it👖
2. BIKER BOOTS
ASOS DESIGN Captain multi-buckle biker boots, £50
If you were a fan of summer's costal-cowgirl look 🌵 think of the biker boot as her grungey, autumn/winter cousin 🎸 The silver buckle accents and chunky leather look are here to bring some *edge* to every 'fit ⛓️ Picture these with a graphic hoodie or a cosy sweater dress – basically anything that keeps you toasty!
3. UGG BOOTS
UGG Classic Ultra Mini boots, £145
UGG has been absolutely devouring lately 🎂 If you’re a fan of the 00s classics, but you also love the super-low-ankle look, these Ultra Minis serve up the best of both worlds 🌐 Forget doing errands; we’d walk around the house in them for fun. And if you fall asleep in them, we rlly can’t blame you – they’re like ☁️ on your feet.
4. SOCK BOOTS
ASOS DESIGN Echo leather sock boots, £92
2016-17 was such a unique time for fashion: distressed everything, wired chokers and, ofc, the sock boot 🧦 And now, with a little bit of 2023 tweaking, we've got these beauties. That sensible block heel is giving corporate cosiness (we’re coining that term, btw) and they sit perfectly on your ankle 💼
5. SNAKE-PRINT BOOTS
ASOS DESIGN Cindy stiletto heel boot, £46
There are SO many ways to level up a 'fit: mixing textures, playing with colours and, obvs, throwing some animal prints in the mix 🐾 FR though, a knee-high 🐍 pattern is guaranteed to add that FIERCE factor. Style them with an all-black co-ord for a luxe vibe or a white dress and a beige jacket for a neutral moment. Either way, these will ensure you’re the topic of many conversations 😉
