My New Frye-Inspired Boots from Target

As holidays with my family now involve three energetic dogs and two adorable nephews under the age of 6, not to mention unpredictable Chicago weather, my uniform for looking presentable yet comfortable involves boots, skinnies and tunic sweaters. Simple, functional, stylish. The newest addition to said boot arsenal is the Mossimo Supply Co. Katherine Leather Engineer Boot ($49.99), which my sister managed to find for me in-store after I waited too long and they sold out online. Sis, I owe you one!! I love these boots. These boots are made for walkin'. Rugged, tough, timeless. They will require some breaking in but so far, I love wearing them. Anyone else score a pair of these?

Inspired By: Aigle Jumping Boots

Move over Hunter: There's another cool rain boot brand on the scene (technically, they've been on the scene since 1853…) called Aigle. Skip lightly through puddles in these Aigle Jumping Boots, $199 at jcrew.com.

These classic boots at Charlotte Russe kinda reminded me of the Aigles because of the two-tone coloration. Give them a try for just $34.99 at charlotterusse.com.

Riding Boots on a Budget: DSW Shoe Warehouse

I know many of you are on the hunt for the perfect pair of black riding boots, and with good reason: This classic style of boot with equestrian roots looks good on most every modern gal. You can pair these babies with everything from skinny jeans to skirts and take your look from day to night—all while keeping your feet warm and pain-free! A quality leather pair will last for years with a little TLC (store them with rolled up magazines in the shaft to keep the shape, and polish once or twice a season to protect the leather and help it keep its color and shine.) But there are some equally great synthetic options, too, if you prefer. Shop for affordable riding boots at your nearest Nine West Outlet store (many styles are under $100, and that's where I scored mine last season) or DSW Shoe Warehouse—which launched an online store earlier this year that's been blowing me away with their great deals and selection. Browse some of the best budget-friendly riding boots available at DSW.com using the widget below. Your perfect pair might just be a click away!
