Online retailers featuring some great OTK boot looks

I'm already seeing some great over-the-knee boot looks at online retailers this season.

Nordstrom's HauteLook website features these great OTK boot looks paired with dresses and short skirts. Not that I could ever pull off this look, but it's nice to dream! Of these looks, the bottom look featuring the plaid dress is my favorite.

 

It should come as no surprise that Macy's gets in on the OTK boot action as well. Where Nordstrom featured a softer OTK boot in black suede, Macy's rocks a bolder look with smooth, sexy black leather and spiky heels! The Guess "Zonian" boots are my favorite style and seem like a real deal for $159!

Amazon features high-heeled dress boots on its home page

It was so nice to see Amazon featuring boots on their home page today, especially high-heeled dress boots.  Don't get me wrong, I'm all over the riding boot trend, which appears to be huge already this early in the season.  While I think most women can pull off the riding boot look, not everyone can pull off the spiky high-heeled boot look.  In fact, if I had to limit my collection to just one pair of boots, it would have to be a knee-high pair with high heels.  The style is timeless and they definitely make a fashion statement!



That said, out of Amazon's impressive selection, my favorite would have to be the Nine West "Braidy" style.  Although the shaft might be a little too sculpted for my taste, those heels are head-turning!

 Also note the Amazon promo code to take 25% off boot orders of $100 or more.

Beautiful Ralph Lauren coat & boot combination at Nordstrom.com

Even though it's not leather, this beautiful orange twill coat by Ralph Lauren really caught my attention during Nordstrom's "Statement Coat" promotion.  It looks even better paired with the caramel spike-heeled boots ("Lavinia" also by Ralph Lauren).

This Ralph Lauren coat is $340 at Nordstrom.com.  The pictured "Lavinia" style boots are past season, but available in some sizes at Amazon.com.  I also saw these beautiful boots in black just last weekend at a local Marshall's store for $129.99.

A great Philip Lim look on the Nordstrom website

Philip Lim features some great fall outfits paired with over-the-knee boots on the Nordstrom website.  However, my favorite by far is this great look featuring a cable knit sweater, leather shorts, and spiky black suede over-the-knee boots.

The sweater may say "school girl," but the leather shorts and super tall boots are total sexpot!

Rihanna rocks thigh-high boots on SNL


I'll be the first to admit, I'm not a big Rihanna fan, but the girl knows how to rock some great leather looks.  From wearing leather opera gloves at the 2012 BRIT Awards to thigh-high boots during her first performance in last night's episode of "Saturday Night Live."  While watching SNL, I usually fast-forward through performers I'm not a big fan of, but I found myself sitting through Rihanna's entire performance and actually enjoying it

I was also curious to see how different online reviewers described her outfit.

One reviewer wrote: "In hot pants, tall black boots, a see-through blouse, black bra and studded baseball cap..."

Then, a style blog posted: "Styling-wise, the pop star’s first outfit was right in line with spring’s sportswear trend, from the mesh shirt to the baseball cap. Except, perhaps, for the thigh-high boots in lieu of pants."

And my favorite: "Serving up plenty of leg candy for the fellas, the singer donned black hot pants and thigh-high leather boots teamed with her trademark baseball cap."

Of course, I was especially curious where she got those great boots, and wondered if they were Report Signature.  If anyone has any thoughts on Rihanna's thigh-high boots, her entire outfit, her performance, or the way she pulls off leather looks, please don't hesitate to share!

KOHL'S: Nice leather looks in their Sunday ad


A recent Kohl's newspaper ad featured Daisy Fuentes looking very trendy and sexy in a striped poncho and spiky black leather boots.


That same Kohl's ad featured a nice office look by pairing a leather jacket with a black skirt and spiky black leather boots.
