Invest in a nice pair of boots this season says Navni Kumar. They’re practical, comfortable and there’s one for every occasion.
Do you have a party to go to but it’s too cold to don your favourite pair of strappy stilettos? We tell you which boots wear really meant for walking, so that you always look chic and put your best foot forward.
Let’s Party
The party boot looks best in black with a pencil heel. Don’t worry though, you can also go for more vibrant colours like electric blue or red. Team it with a short knit dress and ultra sheer stockings or pair them with skin tight leather pants and a funky poncho.

A formal affair
It’s true, that most of us don’t work in a ‘Devil Wears Prada’ kind of world but there are times when we need to be impreccably dressed. Staying neutral is the key here. The beige patent leather and faux snakeskin boots are ideal for that high stakes meeting with the big boss. Team them up with a formal blazer or pant suit or try the Ronnie Grey suede black boots if you’re up for a challenge.

So till it’s hot and humid again and your feet want to be free to feel the cool breeze from the air conditioner, give those strappy sandals and ballet flats the boot and wrap ‘em up with style.
