1. Chunky ankle boots that'll help you announce your presence before you can.
2. T.U.K. creepers any true life (or aspiring) creeper will want to add to their closet.
3. Bow-tiful slides in case you need something new to wear while you air out your ankles during those random disturbingly balmy winter days.
4. Motorcycle boots that'll look hard but actually feel super comfy on your old dogs.
5. Sparkly Vans in case you stylishly lean toward the abyss. But like, a sparkly abyss.
6. Shearling-lined Birkenstocks for some house slippers–like comfort without dirtying up your home go-tos.
7. And Minnetonka slippers lined with faux fur as a cozy step that'll be even closer to your actual house slippers.
8. Lace-up boots for an extremely exclusive party in the back. Just your calves are invited. Sorry. No plus ones.
9. Platform oxfords to give ya' a bit of an edge against your fashion nemesis.
10. Waterproof espadrilles in case you're super lucky and will be frolicking on a beach this season.
11. Frye riding boots in a classic silhouette you can wear to death. JK. As long as you take care of these puppies you can get them resoled and dolled back up for years and years of wear.
12. Dr. Martens 1460s you'll really and truly wear for years and years and years.
13. Or some Dr. Martens Hurston Boots in case you could use a lil' lift but are a sucker for a lug sole. ::raises hand::
14. Leather sneakers in a silhouette that'll never go out of style. (And you don't even need to wear them with socks!!!)
15. Quilted beauts can give you some texture blocking when you're stuffed into your down coat for what feels like the 300th time this year (even though it's only January).
16. Marc Fischer multitaskers I own and wear with EVERYTHING. Really. Most often if I'm going on a trip I pack these and a pair of sneakers on the plane, and I'm more than covered.
17. ~Slick~ patent-look boots that may just add a few minutes to your morning commute because of all the compliments you're going to have to field.

19. Textured mules that'll take the trouble out of figuring out what the hell to wear with your ankle jeans.
20. Cowgirl boots that'll make you wonder why the heck this is your first rodeo. Seriously, they'll go with everything.
21. Or some rhinestone cowboy boots you can wear where hustle's the name of the game.
22. And while I'm at it, rhinestone hiking boots that may finally give your fave (absence of) color its time in the spotlight.
23. Weatherproof Naturalizers that are seam-sealed to keep your toes toasty and the damp OUT while you get to where you've gotta go in this weather.
24. Rubber penny loafers for a rainy day fit when you just can NOT with wearing wellies for the fourth time this week.
25. Affordable Chelsea boots because they're a staple you'll find yourself reaching for on so many mornings with zero regrets.
26. Rain ankle boots in the same Chelsea silhouette no one will suspect are actually rain boots!
27. And wedge boots for when you wanna level up that look.
28. Sweet Mary Janes to layer with all those colorful tights in the back of your sock drawer you've been neglecting.
29. Italian leather loafers you can keep at the office for those days when you have to wear snow boots on your commute but want to walk around in normal shoes indoors.
30. Washable flats that'll be on pointe for many seasons to come because they're a classic shape that'll hold up for the long haul. You can even machine-wash them. Yep. For real.
When your friends don't get your obsession with all black, everything.
