Since we don’t get much icy weather here in Austin, I have a lot of friends who are headed to chillier places for winter vacations to get their fill of snow. Whether it’s a visit to Aspen or New York (or Minneapolis – Camille is headed there next week and the forecast is predicting -3 temperatures), your boots have got to be waterproof and non-slip – and hopefully really stylish, too.
While sporty is totally fine when you’re on the trails, we love a boot that will take us from outdoor escapades straight to dinner.
Say hello to insulation, waterproof materials and grippy soles that all happen to look totally chic. We’ve rounded up the best winter boots that’ll get you through any snow days – but are also cute enough to wear when it all eventually melts away.
