Wear your boots as pants-that’s what the runways are forecasting for the Fall. Boots are getting higher and shoes are becoming more embellished.

The top trends are ankle boots and over-the-knee boots. The higher, the better. Styles ranged from stocking-like to trouser-like, making sure the fabric is soft to allow it to be worn over-the-knee.

The colors for the season are Dark-nearly black-shades, neutrals and red and berry shades. Some popular hues are midnight blue, dark green, asphalt, violets and petrol, in the dark category. Cognac is making a huge splash.

Oval shapes are transforming into round and square-toe is moving out.

Interesting details are a top trend. Stones, flowers, fringe and varying textures are some of your options. The details are kept to a minimum, not be confused with Spring/Summer.

Some great options here at Heels.com are the Turbo boot – which is a flat interpretation of the style:

The Wink boot is a great high heel interpretation. We are currently out of stock, but we should be getting more in soon! Also, we will be getting in tons of over-the knee styles in the next few months!

Would you wear this over-the-knee trend??
