Lace Up Light Brown Ankle Booties
There’s no getting away from ankle boots at the moment, and these ankle booties would be ideal for everyday wear with the lovely almond shape toe. Instead of gong for black colour all the time, it’s nice to also go for brown colour too because it’s still as versatile as black.
The style is simple but chic with the high heels giving it a ladylike appearance. They’re €169, available in Euro Size 42 to 45 from Piero based in Italy.
Italian Black Patent Oxford Booties
Oxford booties are in vogue this season just like they were last season. Although I’m still hunting for an affordable oxford booties in large sizes and I am yet to discover one.
These lace up booties however are meant to be shown off not just hidden underneath your long trouser. Whilst it has a masculine features, it can still be soften up when teamed up with a floaty skirt, jeans or even dress. You could also team up with some menswear pieces if such look appeals to you.

Victorian Ankle Booties ‘Dare’ by Faryl Robin
Another wonderful addition to the expanding winter shoe collection is by Faryl Robin. The lace up and the chunky cone heel are the two main features that makes these ankle booties to so chic and very Victorian. And above all, ‘Dare’ is very versatile footwear that would go nicely with knitted/woolly dress, skirt or trouser. A protective spray would be essential to prolong the life of these shoes since its made of suede. I also love the rounded toe and the cushioned insole to ensure maximum comfort. Available in US Size 10 to 14, it’s on sale for $299 at Barefoot Tess.
Oxford Brogue Booties in Suede and Patent Leather

Oxford Brogue Bootiescomes in black and plum colour. I like the wintry colour in plum. It’s sort of Victorian era inspired boot with lace and leather. There are from Verdezenzero as part of the winter season collection. and they’re pretty gorgeous with a masculine edge made feminine with the chunky heels.I love the brogue detailing on the sides and on the top cap. The contrast of suede and patent leather does works well there. Step out in yours from Verdezenzero for 159 Euro, available in UK Sizes 7.5 to 10. The sole is made of leather and rubber.
Victorian Inspired Lace Up Ankle Boots
Ankle Lace Boots, I must admit that they look victorian inspired but still fashionable. These are Made to Measure by Selve. They are several options to choose from ranging from various styles of heel shape, outer sole and type of lining. Celeste Boots is made of suede on the toe vamp and leather on the rest of the body. They are good alternative to Uggs Boots, assuming that you like your boots more streamlined and feminine. They will work well when worn with well tailored winter trouser, Skinny jeans is a big no no with such style of boots. Starting price for Celeste is £350.
Siena Brown Ankle Boots from Step Tall
When it comes to finding high quality shoe in larger size at a bargain price in the UK, one place I would recommend would be Step Tall. I recently purchased a pair of handmade loafers in UK Size 12 on sale for £35.00. If I may add, its money well spent. As the winter draws near, open toe sandals, strappy sandals and the rest of summer footwear will take a back seat whilst winter shoes takes the centre stage. I love my ankle boots and I am happy to point your attention on Siena Ankle Italian Boots. It features lace up detailing, side zip, smooth brown leather with suede toe vamp, all for £40.00 at the initial price of £100.
