Hot This Season: Over-The-Knee Boots

As the temperatures dip, the boot lengths get higher. This Fall, the one item you must pick up is the over-the-knee boot. Dabbling in a comeback last Winter, they're thirsty for even more time in the limelight and are now back in full force. Unlike the thigh-high boot, which makes a serious statement and can be intimidating to wear, over-the-knee boots are sexy but still adaptable to any outfit, even just your skinny jeans and a sweater. Celebs everywhere are being spotted in this hot trend, including tween starlet Ashley Tisdale and everybody's favorite reality star, Kim Kardashian.

Filming her new reality show in Tribeca, New York, Kim spared no expense when it came to glamour. A wide-brimmed floppy hat, fur coat, and these over-the-knee boots courtesy of Brian Attwood were the benchmark of lavish opulence.

An exterior of luxurious suede calfskin, these stand at a full height of approximately 23 inches. The special detail is in the metal chain on the back of the boots that start at the thigh and run all the way down to the tip of the stiletto heel. Meant to give a formfitting look, these boots will be your second skin, and will make your legs look like they go from here to the West coast with a generous 5½ inch heel and 1½ platform.

Though Kim Kardashian's boots are, well, in a Kim Kardashian kind of price range at $2,900 at Neiman Marcus, over-the-knee boots are flooding the shops at prices that you can manage. If you're simply dying to have a pair like Kim's, a good look-alike is this pair by GUESS at Endless.com.
