Fall 2016’s Best Bet: Block-Heel Ankle Boots

Boot season is slowly creeping up on us and now is the perfect time to start getting ready for the brisk weather coming our way. Next week, the team will be going on our yearly summer break (don’t worry, we’ll still be delivering great stuff to read!), and I’ve already carved out time to start shopping for some new fall pieces. One of the first things on my list to buy is a great pair of block-heel ankle boots.

You can always bet on ankle boots for fall, and this season’s offerings go beyond your typical, ubiquitous ankle booties. These boots hit slightly above the ankle, and the chunky block heels gives the look a casual, relaxed feel that is practical for comfortable daily wear. These boots feel particularly fresh due to the heavy embellishments and luxe materials available, such as velvet, in addition to your standard leathers and suedes. Style these boots with cropped jeans now or with full-length pants or leggings in the upcoming months!
