reals + deals // boot edition

It’s boot season and ya girl is READY! And what’s fall without a couple pairs of new shoes. Or really any season for that matter? Whether you’re looking for some investment pieces or need details on deals, this reals + deals // boot edition is going to pumpkin SPICE up your shoe game. I literally couldn’t help myself haha. So I rounded up some of the real trendiest boots and found deal versions for to save ya some money.

real embellished boots ($1,100) // deal embellished boots ($130) // real grey tall boots ($798) // deal grey tall boots ($75) // real snake print boots ($238) // deal snake print boots ($99) // real riding boots ($190) // deal riding boots ($50) // real croc booties ($150) // deal croc booties ($20) // real combat boots ($790) // deal combat boots ($30)

These boots deserve a moment of their own! I get lots of questions every fall about boots for wide calves and I stumbled upon these beauties today. They come in wide AND extra wide, which I’ve never seen. They’re $75 and actually cute, because that can be hard to find honestly! I love this grey color, but they have other colors too. Just thought it was worth sharing with y’all!

Can we also just talk about the real + deal booties I’m wearing? They’re both perfection and croc is super trendy this fall. I can’t get over the deal version only being $20 though! They look so much more expensive! It doesn’t get better than that. Don’t get me wrong though, I do love the shape of the block heel on the $150 Sam Edelman ones, so they’re worth it if you’re looking to splurge.

I usually do this with everything, but I suggest splurging a little more on the classics like a riding boot or quality booties. Then on the trendy seasonal boots, I’ll find deals so I can stay on trend, but not break the bank. If they’re something you’re not sure you’ll wear next year, don’t splurge. Here are some of my favorite places to find trendy pieces on a budget:
