Over-the-Knee Boots

A mainstay in some of our closets, these sexier tall boots are about to get some serious street cred this season, thanks to a resurgence on the runway. Not the supersultry type? Opt for a flat pair or wear yours over jeans and with a slouchy sweater to temper the statement-making vibe.

Lug soles aren't just for tough-girl boots anymore. The runways delivered the rugged soles on everything from a great cutout bootie to a more sophisticated lace-up — and we loved every iteration.

Lace-Ups

It's amazing how small details, like tie-up straps, can have such an impact on your outfit, but buy a pair, and we swear you'll see how a sexy pair of lace-ups impacts your style immediately. Test-drive a lace-up pump at the office or add a lace-up bootie your weekend — regardless of how you wear them, they're always a standout piece.

In the fashion world, sneakers aren't exactly new, but this season we're shelving our wedged fashion sneakers for versions that you could actually wear to the gym. You can thank high-fashion runways like Chanel and Valentino for making cross-trainers cool again — just look for bright colors to set them apart from your real workout shoes.
