Read MoreAs summer winds down, we have our sights set on what is arguably fall's most essential accessory: the statement boot. This season, boot trends are anything but basic, so take a risk with a stand-out pair to ensure you have the most fabulous feet on the street. Nervous to invest a lot in a bold design? No problem. I have tracked down budget-friendly options of each must-have style. Are you ready, boots? Start walking!
Pair with a cozy turtleneck and a button-front denim skirt for a 70's moment that is clean, but still glam.

Let your feet do the talking by keeping the rest of your look mostly neutral. It should be noted that neutral does not have to mean boring. Gray denim and a sporty sweatshirt contrast wonderfully with these blingy boots. Cuff the jeans to show a bit of ankle.
