20 Chic-to-Death Ankle Boots I'm Buying to Last Me All Year Long

I might not know a lot, but what I do know is a good ankle boot when I see one. To preface, no, I am not actually buying all 20 of the ankle boots you're about to see right this instant, but I will own them before the end of the year, and that's a fact. After wearing and tearing through too many boots to count, I can say with confidence that I know when a pair of shoes is worth investing in and when they aren't, and the 20 I've selected here are worth every penny.
This year, whether I'm in need of a solid everyday pair of black ankle boots or searching for that special pair that will take my going-out look to the next level, I am vowing to use this gorgeous (if I do say so myself) list to guide all of my 2019 ankle-boot purchases. Ready to see which chic-to-death shoes I'm craving this year?
