I’ve been living in Brooklyn for a few years now and love the personal style of everyone I pass by. I find myself asking passersby the details of their outfits, especially their shoes. This year, spring is taking a longer time than usual to hit my favorite borough, but I’ve been preparing anyway. I noticed during our short stint with the sun, aka Fool’s Spring, boots were still everywhere.

Boots don’t have to be limited to winter, but I was caught by surprise at the number of people still wearing boots. I’d assume people would wear sandals, heels, flip-flips… but then it hit me: These boot trends will be everywhere once spring has officially arrived. From moto boots to animal-print, boots will still be a major spring trend.
