The Best Boots Under $500
It’s true what they say, “a good pair of shoes should last you a lifetime.” As we all know, our feet change. The times change and those kitten heels that were once so ultra, are now so outré. Except, nobody has ever really worn the same shoes for ten years. If you live in a city like New York, you’re lucky if they last longer than one season. If we buy a great pair of boots, they should last you between five and ten years…if you take care of them. Boots should last more than one season, so that’s why I decided to round-up a group of twelve pairs of investment-worthy boots, on sale! that we will want to wear year after year. We all want to look fresh, so in tune with #BlackFriday and up coming #CyberMonday, here are the best boots under $500, because you buy-to-keep instead of buy-to-chuck. And to quote my mom, “shoes make the outfit — forget the rest.”
Just for kicks, if only my legs could look like this. So inspirational for the holidays though.
