We love boots because they're functional footwear that provide added comfort, warmth, and protection from the elements, especially during winter. We actually look forward to wearing boots (but we don't look forward to snow). There's a huge selection of boots to choose from this winter: knee-high, mid-calf, thigh high, ankle boots that are either heeled, flat, or fitted with wedge soles. Here are our top five picks for winter boots that are in tune with
winter fashion trends.

PE-62 Buckle Knee High Boot, $26.80
These tall flat boots go well with most outfits and, for less than $30, really are an awesome deal. You can tuck your jeans or leggings into the boots easily as the side zipper opens all the way down to the soles. It also has a cushioned insole to make sure that your feet stay comfortable and warm in this pair.

Australia 'Cardy' Classic Knit Boot, $139.95
This flat sweater boot looks extremely comfortable and warm. This cozy, rib-knit boot is finished with a soft sheepskin footbed so your feet stay comfortable, even if you to walk or stand around a lot during the day. It's also convertible: you can wear it slouched down or completely pulled up.

Mossimo® Kapri Wedge Boots, $34.99
These Mossimo wedge boots can add a bold and daring edge to your outfit for the day. The boots are fitted with non-skid tread-on soles so you can still saunter around in fall's fashion trends (www.thebudgetfashionista.com) and flaunt your style without worrying about slipping.
Chooka Rain Boots, $28.15
Last but not the least are the wellies. Rubber boots are usually not our thing, but these boots by Chooka feature a simple yet eye-catching design that eventually won us over. The boots are molded from soft rubber and are fitted with an intense-traction rubber sole to make these the perfect foots for wet and rainy weather.
