Boots of the Week

Boots: Our picks for the week of October 12

By Anne Harris, 10:18PM, Mon. Oct. 12, 2009

We posted a story about boots a few weeks ago here, but the choices keep exploding out of shoe departments and the internet so fast that the least we can do here at Chronique is try to help you keep up.

We just ordered these Dolce Vitas from 6pm.com. They will basically replace Chucks for a while. The hunt for Phyllis Diller gold boots continues, but these will help ease the pain:

These replace Chucks for a while.

These almost make it, on a darker day in 1970 London:

Bandolino, Instant

We like these for any weather.

Fonarina, 4794, $104

And best-dressed in a gravel parking lot:

No. 704b, $159

But spats! Yes, please:

Jeffrey Campbell, Saple, $143

Who knew Bruno Magli was still around?

Bruno Magli, Latifah, $695

But for just kicking around on a Sunday we like all three of these:

Elizabeth and James, laceless, $225

See by Chloe, belted, $495

Dr. Martens, Adina, $150

This is just a fraction of what we've seen this week. Stay tuned for more editorial therapy.
