This season’s hottest boots feature textured leathers and a mix of rustic, tough-chic detailing that swings between Western and military.

What’s on the hot list for Halloween this year? Angry Birds crops up in full force, as do super heroines and heroes, nods to retro cartoons, and a blood curdling number of vampires inspired by Twilight, True Blood, and even Fright Night.
