6 Best Boots for Fall

These Rebecca Minkoff Bethany Booties are some of the trendiest in stores for fall. They're made of mixed materials: a faux-snakeskin leather toe, suede upper and stacked wood 3-inch heel.

Styling tip: The pointy toe and overall rocker vibe make these the perfect shoe to pull on with all your skinny jeans or leggings.

Rebecca Minkoff Bethany Booties are available in black or slate gray and come in sizes six through 10.

These L.K. Bennett Stanley Boots are a bit of an investment, but you'll wear the brown flat riding boots from one of Kate Middleton's favorite designers for years to come.

What makes these boots so special? The leather is butter soft and shiny, for one. Plus the combination of menswear styling plus feminine accents like tassels on the zipper pulls make these boots a stylish winner.

Styling Tip: You'll wear them with everything from skirt suits to A-line dresses to jeans.

L.K. Bennett Stanly Boots are available in sizes five through 12.

To keep cowboy boots from feeling like too much of a cliche, opt for a pair in an unexpected color, like these Frye Jackie Button Strap Boots in Bordeaux. The boots have a slight heel (2.5-inches), a side zipper for easy on/off and a loop tab at the back. They have a 15.5-inch shaft that will hit at the mid to upper part of your calf, depending on your height.

Styling tip:Burgundy acts as a neutral and you'll be surprised about how many colors these boots will match. Try black, brown, navy, hunter green, denim, and khaki, to name just a few.

The Frye Jackie Button Strap Boots are also available in black, brown and cognac and come in sizes 5.5 through 11.

Combine a sneaker with a boot and what do you get? These adorable Ash Eagle Wedge Sneaker Booties. The celebrity favorites are suede with a rubber bottom and adjustable buckle closures.

Styling tip:Wear these with your more casual outfits, including skinny jeans, sporty skirts and fall-weight shorts. Black tights are a natural match.

The Ash Eagle Wedge Sneaker Booties are also available in Bordeaux and come in a wider range of colors in leather. They are available in sizes 5 through 11.

Black flat boots are a must in your shoe wardrobe. These Baking Sota boots from Aerosoles are faux leather with a diamond-patterened sole that makes them slip proof on icy sidewalks. They are pull on and off and will hit just below your knee. The slight wedge heel is flattering while being as comfy as a flat shoe.

Aerosole Baking Sota boots come in black or brown and in sizes 5 through 12.

These Escapegoat boots from Nine West have a very 1970s-vintage vibe. They have a 1.5 inch-platform and 4.5-inch heel, making them sexy, yet you'll still be able to walk in them. They have a side, half-zip to make getting them off and on easier.

Styling Tip:Wear these boots with your winter florals to give the feminine fabrics a touch of edge.

The Nine West Escapegoat boots come in sizes five through 12.
