    To know me is to understand that I have a heartfelt passion for autumn dressing. My capsule wardrobe is packed to the brim with cold-weather staples like cozy cashmere sweaters, tailored trench coats, and sturdy denim bottoms. But honestly, it’s my beloved boots that take up the most space in my closet.

    From platform stompers to ankle-length alternatives, my boots function as the foundation for all my fall outfits. For this very reason, I’m a firm believer that there’s no such thing as having too many. So, I’m on a mission to expand my collection using Nordstrom’s Fall Sale, which is running from now until September 24. The major markdown event features countless boots from coveted footwear brands, including Sam Edelman, Nine West, Marc Fisher LTD, and more.

    Ahead, you’ll discover 18 pairs of boots that made it into my shopping cart, including classic styles like waterproof wellies and even viral trends like cowgirl-inspired ranch shoes. Not to mention, I’ve made sure to cap each item at $199. You can thank me later.
