Also known as shooties, shoe boots were one of the biggest footwear trends of spring 2010 and they’re set to make a big comeback for the autumn season. Shoe boots are taller than a shoe but shorter than ankle boot and are one of the most versatile styles of boots that are easily taken from day to night. You can also wear shoe boots with so many different outfits including jeans, leggings and dresses.

New in Ravel shoes

New in Ravel boots

This autumn there are quite a few autumn boots trends around and here’s our round up of all the latest boots trends for autumn.

Shoe boots

They were huge for spring 2010 and shoe boots (also known as shooties) are certainly making a comeback for autum / winter in lots of funky styles. Higher than a shoe but shorter than an ankle boot, shoe boots are oh so cute worn with jeans, leggings and dresses. From casual flat shoe boots to shoe boots with killer heels, we’ve so many styles of shooties that will satisfy your tastes.

Cowboy Boots

Certainly one of the biggest boot trends a few years ago, we love it that women’s fashion cowboy boots have come back into fashion with a bang for autumn 2010. They’re so comfortable and easy to wear with so many different styles of clothes and you can even dress them up if need be. Most of our cowboy boots have a small heel and come in ankle, calf and knee boot styles.

Riding Boots

A little bit quirky and a little bit stylish, riding boots are one of the hottest boots trends for autumn 2010. The majority of riding boots come up to the knee or even over the knee and are fairly straight forward in their designs with buckles and a flat sole. Very fashionable when worn with skinny jeans.

Biker Boots

If you’re a quirky diva and love a bit of rock and roll in your look then you’ll love the latest funky biker boots that are so hot right now. Biker boots have chunky soles and buckles and are great with the latest grunge glam look. Wear with jeans for a real biker chick look or go 80s and wear with floral prints.

Sheepskin Boots

We thought the UGG boot trend would have slowly disappeared by now but it seems like it’s here to stay for a long time. Made famous by celebrities, sheepskin boots came into the lightlight a few years ago and they’ve certainly stuck around. We love the original UGG boots and Love From Australia boots. This autumn it’s all about sheepskin lining on the outside!

Ankle strap shoes – a recent shoe fashion trend that features a strap around the ankle for fashion and comfort, making the shoe or sandals fit much better. Lots of strappy sandals are ankle strap shoes, but there are also now many sandals with cuffs and court shoes with ankle straps.

Court shoes – typically a full shoe with a closed back, some court shoes have a rounded toe, others a pointy toes, while lots have cute peep toe. A great versatile shoe in lots of styles.

Flat shoes – pretty simple, but flat shoes do come in all shapes and sizes including ballet pumps, ladies’ brogues, loafers, slip on shoes and much more. Flats are certainly back.

Flip flops – they’re the perfect summer footwear for the beach or out and about, and flip flops aren’t just flip flops anymore, they’re bedazzled with diamantes, jewels and sequins!

Mules – basically a style of slip on shoes that don’t have any straps around the sides or back of the shoes, come in lots of styles from flat to high heeled mules.

Platform shoes – a popular style of shoe that first made it big in the 70s with the boho look, platform shoes have a thick sole that is typically approximately 1in although there are more extreme styles.

Sandals – sandals come in all shapes and sizes from gladiator sandals and summer sandals to strappy sandals and flip flops. One of the most popular and wide ranging shoe types.

Shoe boots – one of this year’s hottest shoe trends, shoe boots also known as shooties and booties are taller than a shoe but shorter than an ankle boot and are oh so perfect.

Slingbacks – a really comfortable and well fitting style of shoe, slingbacks feature a strap around the back of the foot that firmly holds it in place, they come in strappy and full shoe designs.

Stilettos – they’re the ultimate sexy shoe design with a tall pointy heel that tapers towards the end, they generally come in court shoe or peep toe designs but also sandals.

Wedges – it seems like ladies’ wedges are everywhere right now and it’s no wonder why, they give extra height with their chunky sole and they’re really comfortable to walk in.

Shoe boots, shooties, booties, whatever you want to call them, are this season’s must have shoes and there are so many styles on the Viva La Diva website to choose from that there’s a pair for all outfits, and you’ll also love the range of heels from stilletos to mid and kitten heeled shooties.

Full shoe boots

Leaning more towards the boot side of the shootie, full shoe boots are great for any weather and outfit. We think these Bronx Simba Shoe Boots look fabulous.

School look shooties

The retro school shoe Brogue look is so in this spring, so why not combine it with a shoe boot to look utterly fashionable? These Schuh Calvin Brogue Lace Up Courts are every inch the school shoe shooties.

Peep toe shoe boots

These KG Saffrom Classic Courts combine the cute peep toe design with a shootie style, which makes them completely up to date with this season’s must haves.

Strappy shooties

Want some shoe boots for a glamorous night on the town? Strappy shooties are perfect with going out outfits and we love these Ted Baker Airene Open Toe Shoe Boots.
