Western-inspired ankle booties are our current fall footwear obsession. We've spotted everyone from Vanessa Bruno's best-dressed retailistas to Charlotte Gainsbourg (who wears her signature booties almost exclusively with skinny Balenciaga jeans) rocking the Western-style kicks all over L.A. This modern take on a classic Cowboy boot has a more rounded toe and a chunky heel that makes them the perfect compliment to any effortless autumn wardrobe—just layer them with some adorable socks or chunky tights and a perfectly draped dress or skinny jeans to see what we mean. Of course, while we want you to kick around Southern Cali all fall long in these ankle boots, we don't want you to have to trek around town to find the perfect pair, so we've gone ahead and done all the sole searching to help you wrangle this season's most-wanted boot.
