Flat Ankle Boots
A practical every day book, flat ankle boots come in a variety of styles. Leather ankle boots are classic and will last a lifetime, suede is a great alternative, but don’t forget to use suede protector BEFORE you wear the boots outside. It’s really too late afterwards. Invest in a good suede cleaner and brush to keep suede ankle boots looking smart for longer.

Ankle Boots with Heels
Perfect for a smarter work look, or for a night out, ankle boots with heels can enhance an outfit and add a height boost for those of us who are lacking! The size of the heel is super important. Stiletto heels whilst elegant and sexy, will require much more care, particularly walking around town. Heels can get caught between pavements, in the treads of escalators, and they will find their way into every crook and cranny you can think of. Scuffed heels are a hazard of stiletto boots. Block heels are much more practical and are currently on trend.

Riding Boots
An all time favourite for country-life and for ‘sloaning it’ around town. Nothing makes you look more like ‘old money’ than donning a pair or riding boots, jeans and a blazer whilst you do your chores. If you are going for an authentic look, try to choose a boot which doesn’t look like it just came out of the box. Scuffs are good!
