Walk This Way


With fall in full effect, we cannot fail to forget one of the greatest fall wardrobe pieces... BOOTS! It's super important to grab your favorite pair now while they are new to stores and sure to have your size. I pulled my favorite celebrity looks and am seriously gushing over each and every pair. While they are styled to the supreme and absolute in the pictures below, you must realize it is vital to pick up a pair of booties, knee high or thigh high boots for this fall and winter. 

Ginnifer Goodwin seriously rocks her black wedge boots. I admire her edgy look that consists of her pixie hair cut, black dress, long gray sweater and shoulder bag. Seriously hope one of you pursues this vibe and puts it into full effect.

Katherine Heigl, one of the cutest moms to date, looks darling in her suede tan boots that match her handbag and belt. She opts for a bold green top and nude sweater to perfect the ensemble.

SkinnyGirl, Bethenny Frankel incorporates her super adorbs rain boots with her outfit of choice. She works them with a white tee, dark washed jeans and super smashing red hand bag. It is always appropriate to have a pair of rain boots for those rainy days.

While out with daughter Suri, Katie Holmes models a super comfy purple sweater, jeans and ankle boots. This look is the ideal way to dress down a pair of booties and go casual. Throw your hair in a pony tail (like Katie) for full effect.

Gwyneth Paltrow looks chic and fab in a gray blazer, jeans and matching suede gray booties. I love this ensemble because she adds a bit more sass with her big, long light gray scarf. Don't forget your sparkly accessories to go along.

On the go girl, Jessica Biel is off to run errands in her knee high boots. On those warmer fall days, pair your boots with a tee shirt and sweater vest and shorts like Jess. If the chill is still in the air or you plan on taking this ensemble into the evening, pair the look with jeans instead.

Bible! Who doesn't want to raid Kim Kardashian's wardrobe! Obsessing over this look, I love how well she understands fashion. Her boots are amaze and the specific hue is the "it" color for fall. Pair your thigh high "wine" colored boots with a classy blazer, blouse and skinny pant like Kim. Opt for some matching jewelry and handbag to complete the look.

Vanessa Hudgens prances around the city in cute multi color, brown and tan boots while she couples them with an adorable black sweater, jeans and fringe handbag. She makes the ensemble look effortless yet chic while not trying too hard.

Christina Ricci knows how to own a pair of biker boots. Casual yet fierce, we admire the way she pairs these specific boots with a navy blue blazer, light blue blouse, skinny jeans and black printed handbag. Way to go girlfriend!

Keep Makin' Me Ill (Week Ten)

I have what the unenlightened would deride as a compulsion, fetish, infatuation, or obsession, yet I value as a virus every male and female should contract, Seriously Irresistible Shoes Syndrome. I need clothes (how many consecutive afternoons can one wear Lauren Conrad leggings? Love you LC), however when I even glimpse espadrilles, flats, sandals, stilettos, or wedges; necessities be damned! My eyes shimmer, my heart flutters, and within two hours, I’m reorganizing my closet because last week’s pair has new neighbors.

These seductive Michael Kors Platform Pumps ($175) will vamp up your classy black pencil skirt and blouse to brush off that perfect amount of sexy yet strong look. 

I love these Kate Spade New York Pointed Toe Pumps ($298) that would easily go great with a LBD or blouse and pencil skirt. 

Totally swear that I am obsessed with wedges and not afraid to admit it. I NEED these Ralph Lauren Dawn High Heel Wedges ($109) in my closet pronto!
                                                
DVF knows just what she is doing when designing the latest fashion must-haves. Grab a pair of these sophisticated Diane von Furstenberg Camilla Zipper Booties ($325) and make them your fall staple.

Adore these Boutique 9 Platform Pumps ($150), which are essential for any ensemble that requires a little sparkle. Lets be honest, what outfit doesn't require a little sparkle anyway!

Are You Ready Boots? Start Walkin'!


Summer boots are extremely popular. With the excitement and rave over them, it is vital that we don't style them the way we would in the fall or winter. You have to be very careful. For example, breathable linen booties are ideal for the warm weather because they won't overheat your feet. Fun prints are great against a bare leg and pairing your booties with cute breezy dresses always amplifies the look. Keep an eye on the boots you toss on. Fringe can be overwhelming and thigh-high boots can make you hot and sweaty which leads to itching and potentially dry skin. Below are some popular summer boots and great ways to own the look.

Kate Bosworth shimmers, per usual, in a multi colored sweater, jean skirt and adorable summer booties. She dazzled the look with perfect beach waved hair. Darling!

Rachel Bilson models some sexy leopard boots with a simple navy tee and jean shorts while out and about in the city of angels.

While making an important call (probably to hottie boyfriend, Justin Bieber) Selena Gomez owns knee- high boots (better than thigh-high) which she accompanied with a peace sign top and white shorts. 

Wanna snag a great pair of boots for the end of summer that can easily transition to fall? Check out Doll Maison's "Keep Makin' Me Ill (Week Eight)" sunday shoe series for some awesome boots.

Keep Makin' Me Ill (Week Eight)


I have what the unenlightened would deride as a compulsion, fetish, infatuation, or obsession, yet I value as a virus every male and female should contract, Seriously Irresistible Shoes Syndrome. I need clothes (how many consecutive afternoons can one wear Lauren Conrad leggings? Love you LC), however when I even glimpse espadrilles, flats, sandals, stilettos, or wedges; necessities be damned! My eyes shimmer, my heart flutters, and within two hours, I’m reorganizing my closet because last week’s pair has new neighbors.


*These sexy and sweet Michael Kors 'Davenport' Booties ($195) are sure to be your best friend this fall. Grab these super seductive boots and pair them with jeans and a tee or cute mini.

*I love the Steve Madden 'Morgen' Boots ($290). They are excellent for that crisp fall weather. Purchase some skinny jeans or leggings and sport these fantastic knee-high boots around town. You'll be sure to get some looks. 

While I favorite this gorgeous, envy green hue, I heart these booties just as much. Fantastic with a radical top and black, denim or white jeans, pair these House of Harlow 1960 'Natalia' Booties ($295) with just about anything in your wardrobe.


*I absolutely adore these Michael Kors 'Padova' Pumps ($325). They are great with an all black ensemble. Think black blouse and black pencil skirt or a LBD. Add some sparkly jewelry to complete the look.

These delicious L.A.M.B. 'Dotty' Pumps ($395) scream "Wear me you sexy whole bit beotch!" Loving them to death, they are totally worth your paycheck. These pumps would look stunning with any dress of choice. Or, simply rock a sparkly top and some bootcut denim.

These Boots Are Made For Winter

The ankle boot is one of the latest shoe trends. Ankle boots are great with skirts, tights, leggings and jeans. The good thing about ankle boots is you won't have to awkwardly stuff your jeans into tall boots again. These boots still give off the same edgy vibe as any other boot and you can rock these any way you want. Ankle boots are just proof that fashion can be fun, hip and simple.

Go classic and all black like Cheryl Cole, for a comfortable yet hip look while running errands or heading to the airport to catch your morning flight.

Just like Kim Kardashian, try adding skinny jeans or leggings to an outfit with cute ankle boots for just the right touch.

Ankle boots seem to be paired with cute and simple outfits. You can really spice up jeans with a cute top and ankle boots and get an effective party look like Selena Gomez.


To get a similar look like our favorite celebs, try for my personal favorite:
Try for a more comfortable look with the BP 'Trolley' Ankle Boot at Nordstrom for $100.

For a more funky and flirty boot try for the Steve Madden 'Thronne' Bootie at Nordstrom for $150.
