In case you just realized that it's almost November and the need to find a new pair of boots is getting more urgent by the day, step into my office. Fact: A great pair of boots is the key to a great fall and winter outfit, and there's one flat-boot trend, in particular, that'll upgrade an outfit and make it look especially fresh this season. The trend is flat soft-leather ankle boots, and every fashion person I know has it on their radar right now.

Given the enormous popularity of soft-leather ballet flats and glove pumps this year, it's hardly surprising that boots are next. The current iterations on the market call to mind sock boots. The latest versions are made of leather and suede, and they aren't quite as foot hugging as typical sock boots. The options I'm seeing have a sleek, minimalist vibe, and they look chic with both cropped and full-length—or even puddle-length—jeans and pants.

The bottom line is that flat soft-leather ankle boots are the boot trend of the season thus far, and placing an order now is a decision you won't regret. Keep scrolling to shop my picks.
