I HAVE to Have a Pair of My Own Ankle Boots!










I can't wait to invest in a pair! My goal is to find ankle boots that I will get good use out of for no more than $50. YES - I will really have to do my research and really hunt these down.

Whether they are worn with leggings, pencil jeans, a mini-skirt, or dress...they will definitely add some nice pizzaz. Last week, while I was looking for accessories (so I was working...), I rushed into Express, and I stopped in my tracks, almost forgetting that I was looking for a black dangly necklace that Jacquie requested (which I didn't find there). The greeting girl at the front had bright red suede, ankle boots, dark skinny jeans, and I don't remember the color of her sweater. Of course, I gave her kudos to such a fabulous ensemble. She worked it.

Have you added this type of shoe to your wardrobe? If not, do you dig it?


(The shoes and styles featured above are currently the type of looks I'm eyeing....most of them can all be found on sortprice.com -- a great site full of deals galore. From top to bottom: Steve Madden, Jessica Simpson, Newport News, Via Spiga.

Do I enjoy it? YES! I didn't see too many ankle boots. But OMG, the pumps are adorable. Good find! Costly...definitely. I'm curious - if you had the choice, would you go for the $300 "designer" shoe if you could afford it, or 5 pairs of "designer inspired" shoes?

GIRL! I have a few pairs of rock star ankle boots. I feel so diva-like in them.

Mines are designer-inspired though. Shooooooot. I'm the QUEEN OF CHEAP at times. But they still look fierce.

I have hot pink ones similar to the first picture. But mine have 5 inch heels, and, while superhot, I can't wear them too much because they are so conspicuous (''oh, you're wearing THOSE again'') and just a bit too high. So there's my advice for your search! Good luck!

Hey Anna, thanks for the advice! I think a basic color to start with is probably best. I'm thinking a black, just for me to even get used to the style. I have a few loud pieces of clothing or shoes and I really have to watch how often I wear them because I don't want that reaction either. Funny! Good to know others are conscious of that too ;)

But I have to say, pink ankle boots sounds totally cute...
