These boots sold out in my size within 24 hours of them appearing on Shopbop. It was probably a good thing: it saved me a lot of time which I might otherwise have spent obsessing over them!

If you’re going to obsess over a pair of boots, though (And why not, I ask you?) these could be a good pair of boots to obsess over. The colour is just fantastic, and while it would definitely brighten up an outfit made up of winter blacks or greys, I’m also loving the runway trend of wearing one bright colour, from head to toe. In fact, looking at the image of this model has made me want to go out and buy a blue skirt and sweater to go with my (fictional) blue boots. I will try to resist. I may not succeed.

These are by Diane Von Furstenberg, and are still available in a range of other sizes: you can click here to see if yours is one of them.
