It's a Fur For All

The blog is back and despite the (really) rather late Indian summer we seem to be experiencing, the boot frenzy is in full swing! With Autumn colours creeping in and this winter set to be a cold one, the fashion world have taken last year's shearling bits and bobs and have turned it into a fur-trimmed fashion theme, set for any autmn or winter wonderland.


'Apres-ski' and a nod towards the more covered up aspects of midi-skirts are trends that seems to be heavily dominating the high street. Fair Isle knits and Arran knitwear is probably going to form the basis of most of our wardrobes this winter. Not only for comfort but also practicality!

Michael Kors £285

The problem comes when it's time to decide on footwear. Obviously, for those more casual days, a heavier biker boot will get you through the slush and rain. But what about styling with your beautiful winter coat or with those longer dresses and skirts? Bikers have their place but this is not it! I dare you to wear your favourite heels everyday as well - we've all done it in the name of fashion. I guarantee it wasn't pretty for any of us.


The newest styles on the catwalk and here at Keith Scarrott shoes are designed just for those times. Whether it's going for a pub lunch or out for a casual meet with friends - the wedged ankle boot is going to be that invaluable wardrobe item that you can wear with skinny jeans, just as well as with opaques and patterned skirts.

Yves Saint Laurent £645

Trimmed in shearling and furs, these beautiful boots will finish off any outfit with that touch of striking designer class. In fact Michael Kors has been quick in popping his versions into the Ready-to-Wear melee. These stunning camel boots (above right) showcase that practical platform wedge in non-slip crepe. All for a cool £285.


Following the trend Yves Saint Laurent have done their own, slightly more 'geek-chic' versions in darker suede and laced detailing (left). Striking, absolutely. But at £645, they're bit out of my winter shopping budget - I don't know about you!!

Marc Jacobs £500

If suede isn't your thing for the coming autumn days and winter months then Marc Jacobs have their own £500 versions of the wonderful winter wedge (right). In black leather with contrasting warm trim and lining, they are sure to make an uber fashion statement with any of your outfits, as well as being easy to wear every day.

 Here at Keith Scarrott Shoes, we've combined all these fabulous attributes and tried to keep our unique, sleek Italian aesthetic. With platform crepe soles, soft calf-leather and furry lining and trim, these boots can be work up or folded over. I've yet to see any other boot this style that I can imagine wearing with a variety of outfits (smart or casual) as I can with this one.
