How many pairs of boots do you own?

atlgirl · Gucci

Four. *oops, five!*

- Black ankle boots, Via Spiga

- Black knee-high square toe boots, Nine West

- Black knee-high round toe boots, Anne Klein

- Brown square-toe boots, Franco Sarto

- Black Tony Lama cowboy boots, formerly DH's

I don't wear the Nine West much anymore (they were a gift from hubby a few years ago) because the square toe is *really* clunky. The FS boots are much more streamlined, and currently my favorite pair.

I am hoping to add at least one more pair (possibly two, if finances permit) to the boot stable this winter. *s*

ETA the cowboy boots I forgot about. I have Doc's too but am not counting them because I can't remember the last time I wore them...

4:

-knee-high, high heeled, pointy-toe in brown and in black
-mid-calf, high heeled, pointy-toe in brown and in black

I also have a 5th pair of brown round-toes, but I don't like them anymore. Now I want a pair to wear jeans tucked into, with a bit chunkier heel and rounded toes. Oh, and if I happen to find $900 on the sidewalk, I'll be getting the flat, knee-high Jimmy Choos I've had my eye on for months.

Elle · Hermes

Just 2:

Black ankle boots - Franco Sarto

Brown suede knee-high wedge boots - Report

I am in desperate need of both snow boots and black knee-high boots!

Just 8. I'll probably buy one more pair this year.

black ankle boots

black knee high round toe boots

black knee high pointy toe boots

red vintage fryes

purple stiletto boots - they hit at the lower end of my calf

brown riding boots

wellies

red faux python boots - i used to loved these, like, 5 years ago. i'm completely over them now, but haven't been able to get rid of them.

kenzie · Chanel

I'm really not a boot person-although I should be b/c it's freezing and nasty in PA in the winter-but I want to get some casual ones for winter. Right now I own:

Brown leather knee-high
Brown suede knee-high
Black leather knee-high (these need to be replaced ASAP)
Nasty old, crapkickers from my college days (the ones from AE that everyone had back in 1998)
Leopard print rainboots

Here's what I need to buy this year:

in brown

or some variation of this.

And I need some snow boots.

I don't really feel like I have that many but I guess since I bought most of these in the past year... it feels like a lot at once. If I planned things better, I don't think I would have gotten two pairs of Fryes, but who could beat the vintage ones for only $20 on Ebay?!

Vintage Frye boots from Ebay
Frye Campus boots in Banana
KORS black suede lace-up boots
Jill Stuart super high heel rounded toe black leather ankle boots

do Uggs or wellies count?

Boots to Buy

A polished black leather kitten heel boot for work - I've got my eye on the J.Crew ones Lilykind posted.

Dot, don't know if you're tried these on, but I have the midcalf version of these (I wanted the tall ones, but the calves were so huge

) and they are super comfortable. I'm really pleased with them!

Lilykind · Hermes

As of right now, 5 pairs. This is subject to change, as I am still in massive indecision about whether to keep both of my new brown pairs.

Brown J. Crew pointy toe kitten heels.
Brown Bebe round toe w/4" heels
Black pointy toe knee high w/kitten heel (Kenneth Cole...they are near-identical to the J. Crew pair)
Green/blue/pink/gray floral print wellies (Urban)
Frye Campus boots in Saddle.

laken1 · Hermes

Well, I guess 8.

*2 pairs of tall black boots (but they were really cheap, I really want some others)
*Via Spiga mock croc ankle boots - MY FAV
*Target brown harness boots
*Target brown Michael Kors Crosby knock offs
*some HORRID red snake skin platform boots - but I

them
*Pink pasley rain / rubber boots
*Donald J Pliner ankle boots

I want to know how many pairs DETROIT has!!!!!!

ETA: I wonder if my red boots are the same that luckylily has & wants to get rid of!

honey · Gucci

if i counted right the grand total is 19 but they all serve a specific purpose. i swear i'm not obsessed with boots

*2 pairs of kenneth cole boots (one brown over the knee, one black knee high)

*3 pairs from br (brown, black, and burgundy -- these are my work boots)

*2 pairs from steve madden to wear under pants (black stiletto, and brown with a more square toe, both mid-calf)

*2 pairs from ann taylor (black pointy toe -- bought to replace the black steve maddens which are kind of on their last leg, and one green suede pair)

*2 pairs from j.crew, both wedge heels, one knee high in burgundy, one mid-calf in black

*2 pairs from diesel, one flat black pair --they're kind of like the urban version or riding boots, and one round toe brown knee high

*4 pairs from frye (the campus in saddle & banana, the dorado slouch in off white, and the harness boots with the stitching/embroidery)

*1 pair of tan suede stacked heel boots from charles aaron (they used to be part of steve madden)

*1 pair of black kitten heel boots from enzo -- these are hands down my favorite b/c they're soooooo comfy, yet still very stylish.

laken1 · Hermes

Damn honey!!! But if I lived somewhere that had a cooler climate, I'd live in boots - they are my favorite thing ever.

HA! not telling

honestly, I don't know I would have to count them at home - even then I probably wouldn't tell! I'll tell you one thing, I do have more shoes than boots...
