One thing we love about fall fashion is the seemingly endless options offered in the footwear department. From ballet flats and slip-on loafers to everything velvet, the looks are perfect.

One of our favorites? The block-heeled boot — it is every bit stylish but doesn’t compromise on comfort, making it the go-to choice for just about every occasion. The boot is not completely new to the scene, but continues to appear on runway after runway and in the closets of some of the most stylish.

The Gucci Carly mid-calf Globe bootie is perfectly in tune with fall’s military trend. The smooth black leather boots feature a blue, red, and gold trim punctuated with gold-tone buttons stamped with the iconic house’s “G” and bee motifs. Elevate your office look in this boot by wearing it with a pleated midi-skirt and neck-tie blouse, then complete a striking midnight look in a black knit turtleneck and dark denim jeans.

Step up your weekend wardrobe in Rebecca Minkoff’s Iris suede fringe open toe bootie — the topstitching design and chic color options will complement weekend basics and offer a more polished look while you run around town. Wear them with your favorite boyfriend jeans and a simple bodysuit.

Taking your outfit day to night? Throw on a cropped bomber and you’re good to go.

Looking for an investment piece? Look no further than Gianvito Rossi’s Rolling High velvet boot. The rich burgundy and luxe velvet combo adds a glamorous element to every ensemble. Get the off-duty model look by wearing the boot with your cut-off denim and tank, or clean it up with a nude lace midi-dress for an eye-catching statement.
