1. The Structural Boot:
Everyone knows you have to invest in one kick-ass pair of boots each season, so we highly recommend you consider these Pura Lopez lovelies. The gray color is seriously stylish and will look good with all of this season's most important fall colors.

Pura Lopez Gray Suede Wedge Boot, $415, Satine Boutique, 8134 West Third Street (at Crescent Heights Avenue); 323-655-2845.

2. The Work-To-Drink Heel:
TenOverSix is one of the best in-house boutique brands ever, and these heels prove it. We love that one of our fave shoe lines collaborated with the genius Anndra Neen, making these adorned wooden wedges even more stunning.

Cortez Wooden Wedge, $430, available at TenOverSix, 7427 Beverly Boulevard, (at North Vista Street); 323-330-9355.

3. The Updated Clog:
The new way to wear clogs this fall is to pick a pair in rich brown with a cute little kiltie touch, like this perfect shoe specimen from our friends over at Madewell.

The Westway Clog, $168, available at Madewell, 10250 Santa Monica Boulevard (at Avenue of the Stars); 310-772-0428.

4. The Pumped Up Pump:
These Slow and Steady Wins The Race heels are deceptively simple: They look like a classic pump, but they're actually waterproof. So, literally, save them for a rainy day!

Slow And Steady Wins The Race, Water Repellent Pump In Red, $100, Ooga Booga, 943 North Broadway #203 (between Norfolk Avenue and Lincoln Boulevard); 213-617-1105

The Mule
:
These open-backed mules are perfect for the end of summer. Just pair them with a mini and an oversized boyfriend button-up now and slip into opaque gray tights for when the weather gets a bit chillier.
