Booty Call.




It’s time to swap your sandals for boots as autumn falls. Do it in super style with the following footwear guide...

For the fashionista – Russell & Bromley Rockafella boot, £295 Middle left
Kate Bosworth and Sienna Miller are both fans of Chloé’s red ankle boots; with their gold stud detailing, Cuban heel and petite buckles who could resist such girlie glamour? While the hot hue ensures that downtime ensembles remain eye catchingly cool, the sturdy shape offers a touch of comfort (Sssssh!). Russell and Bromley have an amazing copy cat pair in store now that are guaranteed to keep you one step ahead of the crowd.

For the fearless – Emma Cook ankle wedge boot at Topshop, £165 Bottom left
For those who find it impossible to sacrifice on glamour but yearn for a touch of bunion relief - the wedge boot is for you. Mary-Kate Olsen rocked a pair of black suede wedge heels at Burberry last week, while Stella McCartney has been seen sporting some arguably cool rubber wedge boots while out on the school run.
Emma Cook’s new wedge boots at Topshop, which tread the Teddy Boy versus tassel trends, are perfect for those who like to keep their statement shoes shocking.

For the Tomboy – Vintage lace-up ankle booties, various prices.
Last year Alexa Chung inspired us to fall head-over-heels in love with Gap’s Chelsea boot, this year she’s championing ankle lace-ups (which look particularly stylish when worn with slouch socks). These granny chic boots look best authentically worn-in - try your local charity shop and vintage stores for the perfect pair. Look to pay a maximum of £40 for vintage boots and remember to barter.

For the waiting list devotee – Gap’s suede platform boots, £108 Top left
There’s already a waiting list for Gap’s suede platform ankle boots, complete with the cutest sheepskin cuff. So if you wanna rival the world’s top fashion editors, Primrose Hill posers and a possible celebrity or two get down to Gap, sharpen those elbows and fight for your footwear right.
