Yes, it is still winter time.

Yes, it is still cold and snowing outside.

But, all designer boots started going on sale as well.

Amazing, isn’t it?

Well it is time for you to start looking around for bargain deals so that you can still enjoy your sexy and elegant boots while the winter lasts-before putting them up until the first drop of rain or the slightest decrease in temperature after the summer!

You can find the boots in this post at www.farfetch.com. The designers mentioned in this post are Alexander McQueen, Berny Demore, Casadei, Dolce&Gabbana, Gianmarco Lorenzi, Gucci, Kris va Assche, Le Silla, Maison Martin Margiela, Pierre Hardy, Ralph Lauren, Roberto Cavalli, and Versace.

Ankle Boot Trio of the Day

The BootBitch — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 09:08:33 +0000

I love all three designs below, but my heart belongs to Lanvin leather ankle boots. I love the polished metal toe caps and matching sculpted stiletto metal heels. The 1 1/2 inch high platforms allow a comfortable wear over longer periods.

Gucci ‘Killin’ Stretch Suede Ankle Boots have a great design but I the ankles are too skinny for me despite the stretch material.

The Max Kibardin Open-Toe Ankle Boots feature a mini platform and peeptoe design. They are absolutely perfect for warmer days of the fall and winter. And they are also ‘the boots’ to show off beautiful pedicured toes!

You can purchase Gucci and Max Kibardin boots at Saks Fifth Avenue for $990 and $895, respectively. Lanvin ankle boots can be found at Brown Fashion online store for $1,270.

These beauties are priced at $990 at Saks.

They say that due to popular demand, you cannot order more than three pairs. First of all, I don’t know why a person would order three pairs of the same shoe, especially if they have it in beige and white only. Second of all, I am not sure about popular demand but I guess that they do not have a large inventory and they got caught off guard by the demand.

Anyways, I am planning to purchase only one pair.

Go Green!!!

The BootBitch — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 01:15:32 +0000

Girls, it is time to go green and save! Green is not one of the main colors in our collective color plate. I was not sure about going green for fall/winter 2009/10. Was it too daring?

As I was contemplating the validity of this post during my morning commute, a vision in green captivated my attention. My fellow commuter, the always stylish yet never dull, Ms. Fierce (my personal nickname for her). Wearing a very lovely green python printed pump with a green satin pencil skirt, with a burgundy bag. Yes, she went there and the land was good.

This solidified it for me: Be bold, be adventurous and save money go green! (And don’t forget to check the sidebar for links to online retailers).

Hard Decision of Fall 2009: Tall Boots

The BootBitch — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 18:34:57 +0000

Ladies,

This fall, we will have a hard decision to make: Which Over-The-Knee (OTK) boots to choose! Almost all designers have several models ready for us ladies and there are so many options in terms of brand, color, material, and price.

Everyday, we see new models emerging and even the shoe brands that you would not expect to offer a pair of OTK boots, display tall thigh-high boots to attract us fashionistas!

If you haven’t already made up your mind by now, which model to buy, take a look at some of the hottest models for the fall/winter season.

The Real Stiletto Heels

The BootBitch — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 14:28:02 +0000

I am sick and tired of people saying that this shoe and that boot has “stiletto heels” and then I see that they only have high heels that happen to be not chunky! I have seen so many pictures online, that were supposed to be of some ”stiletto heeled shoes or boots” which were only 3-3.5 inch classic heels.

The best definition of a stiletto heel is “A very high heel on a woman’s shoe, tapering to a very narrow tip. Origin: 17th Century; from Italian, from stilo a dagger, from Latin stilus a stake, pen“. Most of the real stiletto heels are also called pin heels or spike heels.

I absolutely see no reason to call any type of high heel a stiletto heel to give it a more sophisticated and exquiste status. Unless it is very thin at the base and pointed at the heel tip, a heel should not be called a stiletto heel but simply a high heel.

To clarify what a real stiletto heel is, I am posting a couple of shoe and boot pictures with “real” stiletto heels.

My High Heeled Boot Favorites

The Bootbitch — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 13:34:04 +0000

I must admit, I am a Boot Girl. I love boots and I can wear them anytime, even in the summer!

This year, a new trend emerged. Designers all around the world are creating styles that look like a pair of rather closed peeptoe pumps or sandals but they call them a bootie, “peeptoe bootie”, “open-toe ankle boots” or even a “shoe bootie” or “shoe boot” as in case of Fendi High Heel Gladiator Shoe Boots.

Whatever they are called, these styles are sexy and gives us ladies the chance to show off our well-pedicured toes, even in fall and winter! There is also a continuing trend for over-the-knee (OTK) and thigh-high designs and although most designers are looking for a fresh style, I love some of the retro look like in Jimmy Choo, Michael Kors, Miu Miu, and especially Prada OTK models.

Although there are some cute flat or low-heel OTK boots this year (especially some riding boot inspired models), I always prefer high heels and stilettos!

Below are some of my high heel boot and bootie preferences for this fall season. I will be posting more of this tomorrow.
