I don’t know about you, but when it comes time to start shopping for a pair of high-heeled boots, it’s never an easy job. There are so many variations that sometimes the options can be daunting; how do you decide which pair suits you best? Well, take it from someone who is fortunate enough to be doing an internship that allows me to be surrounded by wonderful shoes: these Tabitha Simmons Heidi boots are the most versatile boot I have seen this season. Remember back on our site when we discussed the Cutout Lizard Ankle Wrap Sandal? In retrospect, this sandal actually caused a lot of debate. Will opinions be more unanimous about these boots?

Black boots are a timeless shoe and will never be out of style. On this Heidi shoe, the zipper decoration, along with the mix of snakeskin and black leather textures, make this a cutting-edge boot that’s worth investing in (or at least considering). Face it ladies, at this stage in the game our feet are no longer growing, so why not splurge on a pair of edgy boots that we can wear now or five years from now. Buy through Barneys for $1895.
