Lace-up booties have been a major trend recently. For the past few seasons the majority of styles available have gone by way of feminine embellishments and delicate heels. This is starting to feel as old as the Victorian era they are borrowing from. Update this versatile staple with a minimalistic wedge and streamlined lacing. These could be paired with a skinny pant and chunky sweater, or ribbed tights and floral fall dress.

These boots are not for anyone who shies away from making a statement. Studs are here, and they are here to stay, but can easily be over-done and difficult to wear. As trendy and fabulous as they may be, no one enjoys being stabbed in the face by a spiky shoulder. Minimize risk of injuring yourself and those around you by containing your studs to your feet. The flat sole of this boot keeps it casual and comfortable enough during daytime or weekend wear for your every-day rebel.

There is nothing as versatile or fierce as a knee-high black motorcycle boot. Flattering on every body type, and complementary to most outfits, they are an absolute staple in anyone's wardrobe who lives in a city that knows the true meaning of autumn: wet leaves. Pittsburgh knows the best and worst of what the seasons can bring to us, and these will get you to and from work, or keep you out on the town in style, and with dry feet.

The necessity of a functional rain boot need not be explained to those of us who live in Southwestern Pennsylvania. But, there is nothing worse than having your $15 rain boots tear on your walk home in a three-inch river of water. The quality of your rubber boots should never be compromised, and luckily with that quality comes a perfect fit and style. Of course, there is really no better color for footwear during this time of year than that perfect shade of Steeler Gold.
