Classic Boot Styles: Best Boots For Fall
A few classic styles and the best boots to wear for fall. I wear a rotation of these styles every year, they are easy enough to pair with just about anything, a classic pointed toe or an ankle boot are two great options that never go out of style so you can shop less.
The Classic Chelsea Boot
A great option to have year round, they’re muted enough to be a great casual daytime boot, and fit in perfectly if you plan on participating in fall activities. I tend to own more fashion boots because of my lifestyle, and one pair of hiking/messy boot. So it depends on what your day to day looks like.
Blundstone Original Chelsea Boot. Either black or brown these are the epitome of comfort, practicality, longevity and are cute to boot. They’ve been on my wish list for quite some time, they’re not cheap but you really do need a good colder weather boot you aren’t afraid to get dirty.
The Classic Ankle Boot
I love a classic ankle boot, all year it doesn’t matter. They polish up a look and elevate any casual outfit, the pop of bright white at the bottom adds a nice contrast especially in the cooler months when people tend to wear a lot of black.
I’ve linked a few pairs down below that were popular last year and still hold merit.
Fall Riding Boots
Riding boots give a really beautiful heritage feel, pair them with a dress pant or great pair of denim and you’ll feel modern without trying too hard.
The Combat Boot
Doc Martens for me are the classic cold weather boot. I have the Arcadia Chelsea boot and love them, they’re different with a hint of cherry red. They look great with denim and the quality is outstanding. My wish list does consist of lace up Doc Martens though for a well rounded black boot collection. You just can’t beat the quality and they never go out of style.
If I go hiking in the Fall I wear my Doc Martens. They’re incredibly comfortable, these are basically my go-to boot for getting dirty as well. A great all purpose running errands and doing messy kinda stuff boots.
Tall Boots for Fall
Another great style of classic boots are tall boots, this style is great for fall because you can pair them with shorts, skirts and dresses.
Autumn Boots and Styling
Style ankle and combat boots with cropped denim, a button up or a sweater. Riding boots and tall boots look great with a dress, skirt, or trousers tucked in with a layered or oversized top. Chelsea boots can really be own with anything just keep your denim length in mind.
Overall, have fun with your outfits while styling these 5 classic boots for fall!
