A Complete Guide to Every Style of Ankle Boot to Try This Season

We recently described ankle boots as a fashion girl's best friend (yep, we probably love them more than diamonds), and as we come into autumn this couldn't be more true. The shoe style is a staple—often worn by many all year around.
We've already seen some ankle boot trends that we thought were left behind in 2004 make a very welcome return this year, and it doesn't end there. While there'll always be a place in your closet for classic black ankle boots, more obscure styles are also having a moment.
Celebrities like Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner are leading the way, often snapped in new styles (like perspex and denim) and we're so on board.
