Since winter doesn't want to loosening the grip it has on us, I thought I'd take the time to feature a winter friendly boot that not only looks good but DOES good as well. Say hello to the Shane&Shawn Robin Wedge Boots. These leather and nylon knee-high boots feature a very stylish downtown silhouette, shirred shaft with edgy drawstring detail, and a stacked 4 1/2" wedge making them a perfect and very chic wintry weather boot.

They are currently a steal at $95.00 on Shane&Shawn, with 20% of the proceeds from the sale of this boot donated to the Reid Rizzo Foundation. The goal of this foundation is to provide financial assistance to those seeking to enhance their education, awareness and research relative to medical conditions that affect the cardiovascular system and support athletic organizations wishing to enhance the support structure provided for the athletes they service.

Well it looks like the early spring as been put on old so its back to highlighting a few more fall/winter boots. Be warm and comfortable during this unpredictable season in the lightweight Kork-Ease Maya Boot (shown above in militaire), an Italian leather on-trend, military-esque, hiker boot which features a lace-up silhouette. The stylish boot also features tonal details and a modern 4" heel with 1" platform and is perfect to combat this crazy season and transition to spring. Want it? Hop over to www.korkease.com.

I love a thick or block heel and I was introduced to these gorgeous thick statuesque heels by Messeca, at the Levi's Fall 2012 Collection Show. On the left (in the above photo) is the the Gavin Platform Pump and on the right is the Juliana Boot - both are available now and ON SALE at ShopStyle.com (the Julianna, featured above in Cognac distresses leather is currently only $59.97). Grab them while you can.

These super comfy boots are made from 100% waterproof Australian Sheepskin which uber thickness makes it incredibly soft. They feature tough rubber outsoles, molded heel cups and sheepskin lined insoles. And of course they are much cuter looking than Uggs - check out their chic leather boots.

I was introduced to this brand during fashion week and I can kick myself for not knowing about them sooner. The above shoes are from their Fall 2012 Collection which sadly won't be available for a while but their awesome spring collection is available now online at tulestemarket.com or at the following retailers - Henri Bendel, Intermix, the Plaza, etc.
