Wear Nicole Richie’s Boots, Spend A Lot Less

What: Lanvin Flat Knee Boot, $860

Why: Nicole Richie has emerged from multi-colored hair extensions and sidekick status to become a veritable style icon.  And, in these sleek Lanvin boots, she definitely mixes fashion with practicality. Flat-soled, the Lanvin boots offer enough comfort to outrun the paparazzi or to spend a day shopping the boutiques. Plus, once Richie pops out her mini-Nicky, she won't almost drop the babe while tripping over high heels like Britney did to her shaken tater-tot.

Comfort and style all wrapped up in one boot? It's no wonder Mary-Kate Olson and Lindsay Lohan also own a pair.
