Friday Finds: Ugly Boots?

so my intention of friday finds is not to provide you with ugly things to look at. obviously. that would be weird. but i couldn't help but notice how many ugly fall boots there are out there. take for example these selections from piperlime. (not necessarily picking on piperlime, just happened to be looking there)

dkny (of course then i open the newest instyle and see this boot featured on page 520... but i'll stick to my opinion!).

is this a take on a guy's timberland boot? oh dear.

but let me just throw in the big 'ol caveat for those who i may have offended by saying that style is very personal. i, for one, am enamored with these boots from j. crew and i'm quite sure they're not everyone's cup of tea.

but man i would love to see these on my feet :) here are some others that i would gladly invite into my closet.

the archive boot also from madewell:

btw madewell is killing it this season. go have a look at their site.
