From the classic riding boot to an über-feminine stiletto, we've got them all covered. Click through to the gallery to see the boots you need to stock your closet with!
The Stacked Bootie
Every woman absolutely needs a pair of stacked booties in her closet. Whether it's black or brown, these are best in staple colors so you can wear them with just about any Fall look. Make sure to invest in a pair with a solid, thick heel — the more comfortable they are, the better. You want to be able to wear them out and about for hours on end. The stacked bootie, up close and personal.

The Moto Boot
For casual but still stylish everyday wear, nothing beats a good moto boot. These are perfect for tromping around town when you have a ton of errands to run in a short amount of time. Invest in a quality pair — good leather, a solid sole, and reliable hardware are important. Anna Dello Russo's Saint Laurent boots, run about $2,400.

The Dressy Bootie
Another boot staple: a dressy, dainty bootie that's not made for walkin'. These are for special occasions when you won't be walking that much: a nice dinner or a drinks date. This is the boot that will allow you creative freedom — you're liberated to go with wild colors, fancy embellishments, open toes, skinny stilettos, or whatever your heart desires.
