I found some good booties & ankle boots on sale…
Whether you call them booties, ankle boots, or short boots, they’re one of the most versatile and hard-working footwear styles for cooler months. I’ll wear mine from late autumn until early summer, and almost always include a weatherproof pair in my travel wardrobes.
During our recent visit to Italy, Paris, and London, I was paying close attention to footwear styles and taking notes. Combat and lug-sole booties are quite popular with all ages. But I also noticed a good showing of sleek and classic styles with with a low to medium heel.
Women’s ankle boots and booties on sale…
While it’s still early in the season, I’ve found a smattering of current ankle boot styles on sale (or marked down in promotions). Here are a few that caught my eye…
Today you can still save 30% sitewide at Aquatalia! (code SINGLE30, through 11/12 ) I’m a big fan of Aquatalia boots, for both style and comfort. This weatherproof lug sole Chelsea boot is sturdy without being clunky. I really like this Cappuccino color, but it’s also available in black.
Just a really good-lookling classic zip bootie…(also weatherproof)
This bootie nods to the Western boot trend, without being too literal. (Also in black.)
Here’s a more budget-friendly waterproof option. I really like the smooth leather for dress-up-dress-down versatility, but it’s also offered in both black and brown suede (as well as black leather).
I like the front zip on this lug-sole bootie. Also a budget-friendly waterproof option, also available in light brown suede.
When I posted a selection of ankle boots last year, many of you mentioned that you were looking for Wide width options. Here’s a classic zip bootie offered in Wide, and under $100!
This wedge bootie is offered in Medium, Wide, WW and “Super Slim” (narrow) widths. The blue suede is fun, but it’s also available in black leather.
Here’s another bootie offered in a Narrow width in crinkled Burgundy patent.
Paul Green boots often sell out before they go on sale, but this one is marked down 40% and still available in a few sizes. This gunmetal color is a nice alternative to black.
Just a clean, classic Chelsea boot, also available in black leather and suede. (Part of me will always think of this style as “Beatle boots”…)
I love how the Bordeaux patent leather adds a refined element to balance out the ruggedness of the lug sole.

Great selection here, Susan. Do you have any suggestions for boots that would accommodate plantar fasciitis sensitivity?
Your clothing pics from EU & UK are spectacular! You look smashing in the top with blue sundials!
Thanks, Elizabeth! Vionic shoes are supposed to be a good option for those with plantar fasciitis. Though it’s not on sale currently, I think this ankle boot is very nice looking: https://bit.ly/3DeqKEl
Susan, loved all the great new finds, but did you see any shows in London or any thing we should look forward to seeing at the National Gallery?

Hi Mary Ann, unfortunately we only had a couple of full days in London so didn’t have time to catch any plays or art exhibitions. Next time!
I love booties. They’re the perfect mix of feminine and masculine, plus very practical.
Waterproof booties are a definite necessity in the Pacific Northwest. I am so pleased with the many options. Burgundy seems like a great color to add to my shoe wardrobe, too. Thank you for the post.
