We’re not usually prone to nursery rhymes around the WhoWhatWear.com office, but lately we can’t get the words to “One, Two, Buckle My Shoe” out of our heads. Thankfully, there is a good reason why we keep humming this terrible tune: the delectable medley of buckle boots that are popping up on the feet of stylish ladies left and right! Truth be told, we are still obsessing over 
fetish footwear and 
over-the-knee boots, but buckle boots may very well win the competition for best fall shoe. The runways displayed a ton of great versions, from futuristic and multicolored types at Marc by Marc Jacobs to pointy, Salem-style varieties at Etro to posh platform interpretations, courtesy of Wunderkind. Unsurprisingly, the shoes caused a great deal of excitement, and celebrities have shown their love for them ever since their debut! With your wardrobe’s best interest at heart, we’d like to not-so-shyly urge you to pick up a pair (or five) now.
If you’re wondering how to wear this of-the-moment essential, we have a few key examples. During New York Fashion Week, Agyness Deyn added a modish touch to her little black dress and fancy coat combo with a pair of Marc by Marc Jacobs 
Biker Boots ($940). You can also look to Whitney Port, who offset her flirty skirt and fitted vest with Fiorentini Baker’s 
Eli Boots ($525) on her recent shopping venture in Soho. These ladies demonstrate that this boot style can make a seamless transition from low key to upscale occasions—such versatility is invaluable! 
They can even take the place of Chucks ($44) or ballet flats in more casual outfits, like the Chloe Studded Ankle Boots ($1800) Willa Holland wore with leggings while walking to the Gossip Girl set in Queens. To save you the hassle of rummaging through shoe and department stores, we found a profusion of buckle boots for today’s story that are just a click away from your closet!
