Boots that make you go hmmmm...

... and that is hmmm in a good way, not as in when your husband looks at your boots and says hmmmmm.  (I'm sure most of us have had "that" version of hmmmm one time or another?).

We are talking boots with attitude.  One of the things I wax lyrical (aka bang on) about, are how to update your wardrobe with the addition of just a few new things. 

It's completely unrealistic to expect us all to have an entirely new wardrobe each year - hopefully there are things that you will have amassed over the years that you love and still want to wear.  But sometimes old outfits don't have the same fizz factor.  Yes that is a complete (crud) thing that I just made up and could probably coin a better phrase but for now, you know that feeling you get when you put an outfit on and think YES.  Old outfits that you thought you loved never quite do that a year on.

So what do you do?  Add something new into them.  And what better than a pair of snazzy (seriously, I'll all with the crap semantics today - apologies) boots. 

It's no secret that I adore an ankle boot.  I clearly also have my Christmas hat on as I also love a metallic pair.  Boots with bling.  Shiny and not so shiny, ones for every day, ones for evening.  I've got your jazz hands boots (I should just call it a day, shouldn't I?) covered.

Starting with ones which are perfect for every day.  Old jeans will be completely reinvented with these.  

Atherstone Ankle Boots £130 from Boden

Flat again at M&S. 

Block Heel Ankle Boots £35



April Metallic Leather Socks from Topshop £75



Gold again and this time with a hint of western to them.  These are probably the most similar to mine I would say, although in gold, and mine are silver.  I don't have a gold pair and think they are VERY different.  I'm finding them so useful I think it wouldn't be too hard to justify both shades...

ACE western ankle boots from Topshop £69




If you are able to wear slightly higher heels for every day, these would be ideal.  And perfect to take you from day to night. 

Leather Stiletto Pointed Ankle Boots from M&S £69



Similar in pewter from Dorothy Perkins, now with 25% off (everything online!).

Pewter Ada Cone Heel Ankle Boots were £35 now £26.25




I would absolutely wear this in both the day and into the evening.

Truffle Collection Silver Boots were £45 now £35



Ditto these as they're "too high".

Alexa Heeled Boots from Boden £140 in Antique Gold




Similar in a silver patent at Topshop £59



And finishing at the toppier end of the budget.  But I do think these are a perennial.  Ones that you will wear year in and year out. 

Silver at The Outnet.  I should so SO have bought these.. 

Monty glittered-leather Chelsea boots were £595 now £297.50



And finishing with the gold versions of my silver ones.

Metallic textured-leather ankle boots were £345 now £172.50


As if by magic - here I am in mine yesterday.
