I'm looking for a pair of nice boots before I go back to school.I live in an area that has really cold winters so converse don't really cut it. I'm not looking for any ugg type boots or snow boots ,instead boots kind of like these except in leather. Price is sort of an option ,no higher than $200.

Oh, rofl I was totally gonna suggest Uggs. I got my first pair, like maybe 3 or 4 years ago? I still have them, they are amazing :o

And check Alloy, they usually have cute boots. And so does Journey's or Aldo.

I'd get uggs ,but it's super wet where I am and the water soaks right through them.
