I found a pair of ankle boots for you to consider in your hunt for the perfect pair. They’re by Kelsi Dagger and I must say, I totally love them.

These Kelsi Dagger Rosabella Platform Ankle Boots ($200) are dramatic without being too over the top. I like the mix of materials with the smooth nappa leather and suede rosette accent. The colours above are black/grey and aubergine (plum). If I were you I’d go for the aubergine shade because these are the type of shoes that should be the star to your outfit, not the background singer.   They’re quite high at 5″ but the platform sole is 3/4″, so it’s only a little over 4″.

Are you thinking about what outfits to wear these with? I actually picture these with a simple outfit; jeans, a white tee and a taupe sweater cardigan with minimal accessories. For evenings, definitely a little black dress!

If you love these Kelsi Dagger Rosabella Platform Ankle Boots you can purchase them at Piperlime.

These vintage-inspired booties are a fabulous choice for fall. The ruffles give them some texture without being overwhelming. These booties come in your choice of black or beige leather.

What I love about these booties (outside the ruffles) is the convenient back zipper that allows you slip into them easily. Side zippers and slip-ons are sometimes so hard to manage.
