Alexander Wang Horsehair Boots

As anyone with S.A.D. could tell you, the days are already getting perceptibly shorter. The only thing that can get us excited about the approaching end of summer is the arrival of new fall clothes and accessories in stores – like these kick-ass Alexander Wang horsehair boots. Daring but not totally over-the-top, they tap into fall’s fur trend with kinder, gentler horsehair and a towering platform heel that’s sure to be a fave among fashion editors. They sure aren’t cheap, but they scrape just under the $1K mark at $995. Get ‘em while they last….
