Splurge vs. Steal: Over the Knee Boots!

Perhaps one of my newest favorite fashion pieces are these Stuart Weitzman over the knee boots! Let’s face it, when you think of over the knee boots, Stuart Weitzman is the first thing that comes to mind! I was super lucky to score these since the “Highland” version of this boot, which is my favorite version, has already been replaced by a newer version. I hunted high and low and finally purchased these last month! The price tag was steep but as I do with every splurge, I thought long and hard about it. I did my research, read tons of reviews and saved for them. Those are my best tips when it comes to a splurge item, research, compare, and save little by little so that it doesn’t weigh so heavily on your wallet right away 🙂

On the other hand of this is my featured “steal”. We all know I LOVE a good steal! I was at DSW one day and came across these over the knee boots that were similar to the Stuart Weitzman ones. I tried them on and could instantly see how these would be a perfect option if I wanted to stay at a lower budget. Although these are not real suede and do not look as sleek as the SW ones, they do the same job and are still super cute! These, did however not fit as much like a “glove” as the SW ones did so there was a little bit of bunching throughout the leg, nothing that was a deal breaker though.

Whether you’re looking to splurge or are looking for a steal, below I have linked the Stuart Weitzman boots and alternatives, including the exact ones pictured above.
