The Balenciaga Ceinture ankle boots have made a significant mark in fashion as the unconventional It shoe of the Summer. Kind of like what Isabel Marant wedge sneakers were for the blogosphere two years ago: basically unsuitable for hot weather but so amazingly cool when paired with dresses and skirts, regardless of high temps. These booties have also usurped the position of being the must-have, transitional staple for cooler seasons, and unsurprisingly have risen in popularity amongst blogger mavens since last Fall. Take a peek at the street style looks that are setting the tone for wearing these most coveted clunkers...

Overall, these sturdy shoes seem pretty practical, with their chunky heels and ankle support straps, but they breathe an edgy defiance that is perfect for sidewalk style.
