Dear Fashion Kitty, Fall boots

My fiancee and I live in NNJ, right outside of Manhattan. I want to get a head start on where to purchase the must have boots for fall. Where is a great place to shop other than the usually suspects like: Barney’s, Just Jeffrey, Bergdorf Goodman, Gucci, and Christian Louboutin

Mmmm … nothing says fall fashion shopping like shopping for boots! I am a bargain shopper and of course an online shopper, so some these places might not be exactly for you but I will list them all the same.

And NYC readers, leave ideas in the comments section if you know retail shops. I am an LA girl so I don’t know all the best stores in Manhattan (yet).

DSW- I always start my shoe shopping missions at DSW. You would be surprised at what you can find. I find things that are selling at full price elsewhere for half the price at DSW. If you are into looking for a deal, go here first.

Intermix- Amazing labels like Chloe and standard boot staples like Frye. You can shop here online and offline too.

Nordstrom’s Boot Shop- Awesome selection and if the boots don’t work out you can take them back to a Nordstrom store. Heck, they now have in store pick-up so you can order online and go there to try them on.

Net-a-Porter– Great selection of top designer boots and if you live in certain areas you can get same day delivery.

Shopbop- I have ordered quite a few things from ShopBop and have always been pleased with the results. They have contempory labels and now top designers as well, so there is a good chance there is a shoe for you in the mix.

Zappos- Inexpensive knock-offs to real-deal top designers. Easy return policy and speedy delilvery.
