This week, I am on the hunt for brown boots. I know exactly what I want, which is making the hunt harder not easier. I want boots that are taller than mid calf, medium to light brown, leather, feature a wide enough calf so they can go over jeans while not being too slouchy.

Right now we’re having a bit of an Indian Summer in Geneva so I can’t quite transition fully into tall boots, sweaters and scarves. I can’t believe that this week it will reach 75 degrees even though just a few weeks ago it was in the 40s. 

The biggest difference I notice in both London and Geneva versus New York City is how much it cools off at night. Most evenings it is in the low 50s and the breeze can make it feel as if it’s closer to 40. Last Saturday night when we ate outside in Marylebone we were all in layers including sweaters and jackets, wishing we’d added a scarf to the mix!

I’m currently evaluating my current closet and figuring out what needs to be added or replaced. The number one thing that I’ve noticed is that my brown boots are beyond exhausted. They have been resoled three times already over their 4 year lifespan and are no longer comfortable. It’s time to say goodbye to my beloved Madden boots and replace them with a fresh pair of tall boots. Here are a few of my favorites which I’ve pinned in preparation for my New York City shopping trip in two weeks!

I’ve included a range of boots across different price points, brands, retailers, and shade of brown.
