1) A reasonable heel. Sorry ladies, I love sky high stilettos as much as the next girl but it only takes one time of biffing it in public to change your mind. A thicker reasonable height heel is a must for the fall and winter seasons.
2) Easy to clean fabric. You don't want to have to worry about cleaning your suede boots everytime you go outside and/or drop a cupcake on them.
Funny Story....Back in our building before the big move Trista and I were leaving for the day and Trista was carrying a cupcake home to her then boyfriend Phil that was leftover from someones birthday or something. Anywho, she's wearing these really cute brown suede pumps - or were they Mary Janes?(oh, they were pumps, and REALLY cute) and we're walking and talking like we're on the West Wing and PLOP there goes the cupcake upside down on the toe of her shoe. We looked at each other and started laughing so hard. No frosting got on the floor or anywhere else. That was the end of her brown suede heels. R.I.P.
3) Versatility. Not too tall, not too short. You want to get the most bang for your buck when buying boots because they're spendy. if you spend your whole boots budget on a mid-calf you're not going to be happy when it comes to tights and skirts season (and no, we're not fans of mid-calf boots with anything other than pants). We say, ankle booties or knee length to get the most bang for your buck.
4) Color. The age old question. Black or brown. We're firm believers that you're either a brown girl or a black girl. Mary Ann is a brown girl, I'm a black girl. We each instinctively gravitate towards a specific neutral. (We both love gray though in case you're wondering. )
