Go rustic-chic this winter with the perfect statement-making footwear. Pick a new alternative to your patterned rain boots and strut your stuff through the slush in hiking-inspired boots.

Waterproof and warm, the latest trend in cold-weather shoes ranges from classic boots to treaded heels. Take my word for it: No matter how high the heel, these shoes are always comfortable. From the shearling lining to the soft, no-slip bottoms, these will soon become your new winter staple.

Layer wooly socks under your shoes and scrunch them over some skinny jeans or leggings for a layered look. For a pop of color, switch out the laces with a seasonal hue. Think rust, mustard or emerald.
