Knee-high riding boots are my current obsession now. I have two plain ones in black and tan, both worn to death. They are my three-season boots — with shorts and dresses with knee-high stockings in the spring or fall and with thicker socks + jeans or high denier tights or leggings for cooler winter climates.

I have been looking for something with a little bit more flair (read: fancier buckles). Leather riding boots from Amazon Boot Shop, top from left to right: Enzo Angiolini Visco women’s leather riding boot (in Cognac), Vince Camuto Flavian leather boot (in Dark Wood/Black with gold hardware) and ECCO Hobart buckle boot (in black, also in Mink or Cognac).

Faux leather boots from Yesstyle, left to right: yeswalker over-the-knee riding boot, Pufii faux leather buckle knee-high boots.

I have 1,995 good reasons why I shouldn’t continue lusting over the Proenza Schouler PS1 bag but I can’t think of one right now. Mmm… I’ll take both leather and suede versions in all colors available, please.
