10 Winter Ankle Boots I Personally Own, Love, and Couldn't Live Without

If you live somewhere that actually experiences winter (no offense, L.A.), you know that once the temperatures drop, you’re pretty much living in boots, as far as shoes are concerned. As a New Yorker, my footwear preferences are very specific, as I’m on my feet a good deal during my commute, and after serious trial and error, I’m happy to report that I’ve successfully curated my winter ankle boot selection to be the best yet.
Including trendy boots, practical boots, and everything in between, below I’ve shopped out my top 10 favorite winter ankle boots that I personally own, love, and couldn’t live without for you to hopefully shop for yourselves as well. Every single pair listed below has gotten me through the toughest of weather and the chicest of nights, and if you let them, they will be just as beneficial for you and your winter adventures.
