Boots for Autumn/Winter - MN style gurus tell me what will be the boot to get please

[barbamama]

Flat, heeled?

Shiny, matt?

Lace-up, zipped?

Colour?

Does it matter anymore?

It does to me as I only buy one pair for the whole winter so need to get it right. For wearing with skirts mainly. I know it's early but I'm chomping at the bit.

too early obviously ............

i always wear flats cause i've got a daughter to run after! but you should look at something like this..

I always go for flat, casual styles. I've seen some in Next which I'm thinking of getting (soon). I think they are more suitable for trousers but I guess it depends on your style
