The Winter Boot Trend That Just Feels So Right
You know what’s just lovely? When a fashion trend emerges that is not only aesthetically pleasing and luxe but functional too. And, much to my delight, it’s actually been happening pretty often lately. On a bigger scale, we got the bourgeoisie and utility trends for F/W 19, and on a more micro-scale, there have been a handful of specific trending items that are proving to make dressing fashionably for the weather at hand a lot easier. Just a few examples include the sleek leather trench, versatile suits, cool-but-cozy cardigans and the topic of today’s post: shearling boots.
While we knew that they were coming ever since we saw them (literally) walk down the F/W 19 runways back in February, now that winter is actually on the horizon and the temperatures reflect it, the trend is finally gaining steam and becoming wearable. To see how Celine, Chanel, Isabel Marant, and more iterated on the cozy boot style and to do some shopping along the way, just keep scrolling.
Up next? I spent over 10 hours shopping for leather trenches—these are the best out there.

As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
