The search for the perfect ankle boot can be an arduous one, but senior editor Hilary Reid found a handsome heeled pair that comes close. Steve Madden’s Dusty booties have a 1.5-inch block heel, a slim ankle, and cowboy-boot-adjacent stitching. Reid purchased a brown suede pair because they “looked Khaite-esque” to her and says they’re comfortable enough that she’s considering buying another pair, this time in black. Best of all, they’re now 40 percent off as part of Macy’s early Black Friday sale, which is a savings of nearly $60. They’re on sale in three color and material options: black leather, brown suede, and gray suede.
