Seattle women do like their boots. Many of us, I’d say, love our boots, and a perennial favorite is Italy’s Fiorentini and Baker.

Several styles just landed at A Mano, where fall arrivals mix it up with on-sale summer styles. The overall vibe is, as ever, handmade and earthy but not too casual, and as European as it is Northwest.

I remember that last fall a friend was socking away money for a tall, taupe neo-Victorian pair of lace-up Fiorentinis, but my favorite style from A Mano’s current edit is this softly studded biker. Picture it with a full-length everyday dress in some fall texture and weight, or with a pair of summer’s sharply hued denim and a big sweater.

And keep in mind the very Seattle, quite 90s autumn mood at the recent Nordstrom Designer Preview; combat boots with Missoni dresses, and quasi-industrial stompers with Chanel.
