"It really isn&amp;#039;t very difficult for me to find such great bargains on boots. I don&amp;#039;t wear leather, so once I find quality man-made &amp;quot;leather like&amp;quot; material, I&amp;#039;ve already saved a ton of money. Just because it isn&amp;#039;t made from leather doesn&amp;#039;t mean that it won&amp;#039;t last. I have had plenty (and I mean plenty) of shoes that are made from faux-leather materials that have lasted years. But sometimes you find something that isn&amp;#039;t necessarily meant to last through the years. Sometimes you want something trendy: cute for this season but it probably won&amp;#039;t be in style for too long. So why spend $200 or $300 on something that you&amp;#039;ll only use for a few months? I simply can&amp;#039;t justify spending hundreds of dollars on trends. To me, $300 is a week&amp;#039;s worth of groceries. It&amp;#039;s a month&amp;#039;s worth of bills. It&amp;#039;s a nice night out in New York. It&amp;#039;s five pairs of shoes. This season, riding boots are one of the biggest trends. And they should be! They are chic, they are flat (which usually means comfortable), they go with just about everything. But realistically, how long do you think they&amp;#039;re going to be in style? These boots can cost up to $300. Are you really going to get $300 worth of wear out of them? I don&amp;#039;t think so. For less than $40, you can own a pair of riding boots like the pair I found at Target  This way, you can own this fabulous trend now and not want to kick yourself with them next fall for wasting all of your hard-earned cash on something that was so last year.
